    My neighbour's bush sometimes hangs over on my side. Am I allowed to trim it?

    Apparently if there's anything juicy in it I'm within my rights to have a nibble.

    Ask if she minds first. Golden rule.

    Its when the beef curtains start hanging over that you need to worry.

    I feel George Spicer may be able to offer useful advice here.

    If the bush has melon balls then you have inadvertently bought the self fertilising Thai variety ;)

    You can cut back overhanging tree branches to the boundary line so long as:

    1) you don't cause damage to the tree/bush

    2) you ask tree owner whether they want the cuttings back after they've been snipped

    Probably best to notify tree owner before hand
