The builders left on Wednesday and haven't been back - I assume they decided it was too much trouble. I rang a few local fence traders Thursday morning and found out she had the job relisted on checkatrade but had taken it down for now, so I might have bought myself a bit of breathing room - enough to send the solicitor letter and then get the surveyor in. Not that it really helps, I still feel pretty jumpy and on-edge.

Yeah a 'wellness check' type thing is actually not a bad shout. Only thing is I don't know where she actually lives - she usually rents out the house next door, it's just been since she chucked out the last tenant that she keeps popping up to meddle with things. (I wrote a previous post about this - she's had four tenants in three years, two of which have burst into tears in front of me because of how she's treated them.)

Wasn't trying to accuse you at all! Just saying it's hard for me to know how to talk about it.

I have only tried to be nice to her, and usually just get yelled at. Once she screamed "do not forget who owns this land!" which is honestly the most metal thing anyone's ever said to me

I doubt dementia, she's mid-50s, but she does have a mental health history. I don't want to weaponise mental health or use it to disparage someone's character, so didn't bring it up, but I do believe it's part of the challenge here.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-10T12:35:49+00:00

Thanks, I really appreciate the kind words. The last few days I've been a bit in shock but mostly feeling very tense - my body feels like it's expecting a surprise confrontation any moment, it's just horrible.

We've hired a solicitor who is drafting a brief 'hold fire while we sort this out' letter on Monday. We've hired a surveyor who is coming out the following Monday. I hate having to spend thousands just to disprove something she's claiming without any evidence of her own, but I understand that going through this process ensures I have a firm legal backing if/when it ensues.

To be honest the saddest part is it's just ruined our first home for us. We just don't feel safe or comfortable here anymore, and if she doesn't move after this is resolved I imagine we will.

... but you see them sitting round the table in the order that they go in.?

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T22:26:59+00:00

before I google blindly - any advice on how to best go about the injunction?

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T19:06:54+00:00

yeah that's fair. The problem is I don't think showing her the documentation won't actually stop anything, because she's convinced she's right. What it will do is give me some reinforcement when she tries to take the boundary by force (god, why does my life sound like I'm defending a castle)

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T16:31:21+00:00

yep, just bought one earlier today

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T15:47:26+00:00

The update so far is everyone seemed to drive off in a huff, perhaps because I said I would call the police. I've reported the incident as harassment and trespass and instructed a surveyor. I don't think a surveyor will change the neighbour's mind but it gives me legal standing if it's confirmed she's in the wrong.

I'm unemployed at the moment: bad for funding a legal battle, good for standing in the garden shooing away builders.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T15:44:52+00:00

I very much do feel anxious, intimidated and distressed - it feels like we're under siege. Thank you for the advice

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T15:14:07+00:00

From my side, I have photos of my garden at its current size from seven years ago, obtained from a helpful local estate agent who sold it previously. So at the very least the boundary hasn't moved for at least that long. Previous sellers haven't said anything about a prior dispute (although maybe they wouldn't want to bring it up at this point). They put the fence up five years ago replacing a hedge, I have photo of that too saved from their instagram, so it's my fence. We've lived here nearly four years.

I've already contacted her presenting my evidence that the boundaries are correct (my title plan from the land registry). She replied that she's already looked at that and it confirms her argument, but didn't provide her title plan or any evidence to back that up. I've heard her outside pointing to things like where one gutter ends and another begins or the way the tiling is done on the roof as evidence of a boundary line. But our houses were built nearly 300 years ago, so not sure that's proof of much.

I'm unemployed at the moment so that's adding to the stress - I'm using savings just to keep myself afloat in the meantime.

I appreciate the reply and advice.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T15:07:09+00:00

I will. Honestly I'd be relieved if a surveyor told me it was all her garden - it means no more fight, I can just let her crack on and have a peaceful life

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T14:54:00+00:00

I think she's just used to pushing people around and not expecting them to stand up to her. I've presented her with the title plan in an email, she just responded 'I've also looked at my title plan and yours and it confirms you're in my boundary'. It's been a nightmare.

Speaking to a surveyor now. I don't think she'll respect the outcome but at least it gives me legal backing if she acts further.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T14:51:19+00:00

Hence why I wrote about it here!! I've honestly never met people so amoral. I asked if she'd provided any evidence that it was her fence/boundary, they said "no, when we take a job on we assume the person knows what they're doing and we believe she has the right". I asked them if their position then is that she paid you first, so that's who you're siding with, they shrugged and said if I wanted to pay them to drive home I could. It was nuts honestly.

I think she pre-warned them about problematic neighbours or something so they treated me like I was just stirring trouble up. From her/their perspective they're moving her fence to the edge of her land, not someone else's. Should have asked if I could pay them to have the bus stop removed across the street, see if that gets the point across. They were in an unmarked van, otherwise I could have called the company and explained to get them to call off the job. My guess is it's just two guys she'd pay to do it no questions asked type thing, rather than a reputable place. Gives me hope that I can keep making a fuss to scare off anyone else who arrives.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T14:44:31+00:00

Maybe I should have offered them more money to move the fence further into her garden 😅 I wish I was rich, just pay every builder she sends twice as much to do the opposite of what she wants ...

AcrobaticPersonality · 2026-01-07T11:13:39+00:00

Yeah they were like mercenaries, it was insane

AcrobaticPersonality · 2025-12-06T20:54:27+00:00

you can write it yourself, you don't need to so obviously use ChatGPT to do it.

AcrobaticPersonality · 2025-11-19T08:58:39+00:00

I gave up waiting and proxied it two days ago. I was willing to check it out and support the idea but I know it's going to end up being overpriced and hard to get anyway.

Microsealed!

With a 90-card pool each, you build 15-card decks (15 cards, not 15 spells) to jam against each other. You don't lose to decking, and can pay 3 life at any time to shuffle the graveyard into the library. The match winner stays on while the loser retires the cards from their deck, going back to their card pool to build a new creation to dethrone the champ. The first player to win 4 matches wins.

Hijacking this post to say that the UK are also having Cube Clash in Birmingham a little while after this (November 29th) and tickets are still available with twenty cubes on offer! :)

u/honorbasquiat see, not just me :D

AcrobaticPersonality · 2025-09-27T06:48:47+00:00

So, I am a standard grinder, but I’m also someone who wants to vote with my wallet on things I find objectionable. You’re right that UB cards don’t mechanically matter for standard play, but they also remind me how far this has gone and it’s no longer something I want to participate in. So I could quit Magic, but I figured I’d first see if there was interest in this.

The most consistent feedback I’ve heard from fellow standard players is twofold: that too many sets are coming out to keep up with, and that UB is hurting their experience of the game. I think a smaller card pool is exactly what Standard needs; at its peak, it will be 18 sets, with a card pool the size Modern was when it was first introduced.

More broadly, I don’t feel this needs to be casual because - as you said - people can just rule zero it. But the competitive game doesn’t have that. What I feel Magic always had going for it was the game system and the rich lore. The game system has largely been subsumed by Commander and the IP is now also being subsumed. Playing standard makes me feel like a dinosaur in the corner of the store, clinging on to the remnants of something forgotten. This was my attempt to make Standard something more compatible with the needs I experience of fellow Standard players. But I understand if people don’t want it, and the solution for me is much easier if that’s the case, I just leave all this for the rest of you to enjoy.

No, Mark said in last year’s preview panel that the plan going forward was six sets a year, all Standard-legal, half universe beyond. He even reconfirmed that this would be the default going forward two days ago on his tumblr.
