Gordon R Posted July 17, 2023 Report Share Posted July 17, 2023 It's not a question of living in fear. The tone of his posts sounded threatening to me. He said he wouldn't let it go and I genuinely thought his licence would be gone. There seemed to be a couple of remedies which would have resolved it, with minimal fuss, but he seemed intent on making a point. I sympathise with him over what his neighbours did, but he seemed to lack a sense of proportion and it was never going to end happily for him.

I agree , it sounds like he might do close protection in Iraq, an extremely high stress environment. Sometimes you need an outlet for that stress, in this case it was the affront that his neighbour had painted his fence ? Hopefully hes had a think about it now , and doesnt go over the top when he gets back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far to much anger in him . asking the forum for answers and not getting the one he wanted so totally disregarded any common sense answers that he was told by people that have probably encountered the same thing . I really understand his anger and frustration of a neighbour painting his fence without permission maybe when I was 30/40 years old I would feel the same but now I am older and wiser and have much more in life to worry about I hope he just doesn’t over react when he gets home for his shooting pleasure sake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got quite a shock when he came home and I knocked on, I'd completely weeded the garden and painted the shared fence, he was chuffed to bits but just hadn't had the time. That weekend him and his girlfriend were outside planting some flowers and enjoying a drink sat in the sun 😁😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
