Another run-in with neighbours, this time featuring BREAD

Edd has an interesting out-of-the-window argument with one of nice-turned-nuts this morning about their chucking bread and other stale yeasty food products on my sloped shed roof. The bread falls in the garden, only to be eaten by the dog. Unfortunately, the dog is seriously allergic to bready products and he gets violently ill when he eats the stuff, requiring the services of our friendly neighbourhood vet. So, when the bread comes over, we chuck it back over to their property.This seems to displease them, but it's their bread and, as far as I'm aware, my garden does not serve as a free neigbourhood food-scrap depository. And I'm sure that they would find it quite unacceptable if I threw over my left-overs or dog-puke containing their own bread.

Edd has asked her not to do it several times before, but she denies it. She seems to do that a lot. I'm concerned that it could be a menopausal forgetfulness thing.

Anyway, I've had a quick look-see and found them one of these shiny bird tables. It sports an attractive, modern design with a 5-litre glass food dispenser, synthetic food table and it's easy to clean. And with a price tag of £59.97, it's a damn sight cheaper than the 550 quid vets bill that they could be paying for making the dog ill.
