He's very unfriendly. I said hallo today when I saw him in the garden and it was all he could do to answer before walking off.
When I came out again I see he has blocked the gap in my fence where all the local cats including mine go through on their route. My cat examined it and then jumped over the top which is quite high.Im tempted to unblock it but don't want a row.

I hadn't realised gransnet was an anti cat zone. Sorry I posted.

Not anti-cat. Though not everyone is a cat lover, obviously.

I just want to know if the fence he blocked off was leading into his garden?
If so, can't you make a hole in another part for the cats to go through, or lower part of the fence somewhere so they can safely jump over?

There's always someone on every road. I can remember a man who lived in the next row of houses to ours who was a nasty piece of work when I was a kid and we were all frightened of him as he had a volcanic temper and thought he was a hard man as he played rugby league off and on. I can remember him beating up his wife and trashing his house and having to be taken away in a straightjacket. Also his daughter would tell tales to him so she could laugh at kids being threatened with violence by her lovely daddy. When they moved after 3 years, it was such a blessed relief.
I sometimes see him now and he never speaks. Also he's in his seventies and looks quite pathetic and about as threatening as a fruit fly.
