Here in Florida, we have major yard work most of the year.
I have a neighbor that has tree limbs that drop off into my back yard.....The hell I'm going to deal with them.
So I wait till it's dark, and toss them back over the fence between our 2 yards. Sometimes, I find them back into my own yard. I would never send limbs over the fence from my own trees from my own yard.
What the hell?........God I hate neighbors!
anyone else?

Yeah... not quite like that, but I have a neighbor who thinks that she can plant stuff in our yard. Also she put a little decorative (but falling apart piece of crap) wishing well in our yard because it would "look nice." Plus she has planted all of this "decorative grass" stuff (I call it noxious weeds) all along the side of our front yard since a tiny little one foot piece of our front yard is technically her property- actually it is the easement between our houses so one can access both of our backyards with equipment.
GAH! This same neighbor has a huge dead fir? tree right on the fence bordering our two yards, so all of the dead needles, cones and branches have been dropping off in our yard all the time, but will she cut it down? NOOOOOO.
And also, this same neighbor has a giant Western Red Cedar, which hangs over our fence by a mile, so all of the needle drop from that kills everything. At least that tree is healthy.
We also have a neighbor whose dog poops in our yard, but she is little, and we have an understanding that if her dog poops in my yard I will clean it and if my dog poops in her yard she will clean it. So it's all good. And if all the dogs go over and poop in dead tree lady's yard, we do shots of tequila! (Not really. But we do secretly do a little dance and cheer.)
I miss having a yard for things to fall into!
lol..
I never had problems like that.. although I used to have problems when I lived in the country of neighbor dogs coming in our yard and wanting to fight with my dog..
hahaha.. I told my neighbor in Arizona that I was gonna poisen his tree.... it drops stuff and it goes in my pool.
He almost smiled.

I had a neighbor here in Florida who kept throwing the grapefruit from my tree back into my yard. I thought he was an ungrateful old fart. Now he's dead. And I chopped the grapefruit tree down.
I must have about the bestest neighbors in the whole wide world or something.
There's a huge pecan tree that is in my yard but looses small limbs into the neighbors yard when the wind is up. I go out and pick them up figuring that's the right thing to do. So a couple of weekends ago I go outside early and what greets me is a pecan tree fully engulfed in toilet paper streamers. Not the most professional job but a fair rendition to be sure. These neighbors have three kids and so this sort of thing I'll just have to expect I suppose. Anyway, I didn't see it happen but the mess was cleaned up in a timely fashion. The last TP encased branch came down yesterday during a storm and I snagged that unsightly one up.
Aside from that, they and the neighbors on my other side have each mowed my lawn a time or two and even fertilized and edged so I return the favors when possible. When I found this house I knew it was the one from the overall feel and I was right. Good neighbors are out there and I got 'em.
