    Would you have allowed the farmer himself fix your lawn if he offered to do so

    Maybe try reading the thread like the first post

    So we took your advice. The court sent us the decree to send on to the sheriff. We wrote to the father of the farmer explaining our options and mentioned that it may be quicker for us to do a public fundraiser in the local paper and at mass instead of the sheriff.

    Strangely enough got a call today....they want to pay the bill.

    Good stuff. Terrible that they had to face public shame to do the right thing.

    TBh, if I was terminally ill I think i'd like to spend what remaining time I had enjoying what was left of my life rather than wasting it away on the trivial matter of a few humps and holes in the grass.

    I'm sure that poster could ask you the same thing tbh ...

    Yeah good to be neighbourly and settle things amicably but a piece of lawn is not the end of civilisation as we know it. And yes I've had my lawn visited by wandering livestock - I kept them there and let the owner know.

    Yeah I get it some will want things remedied. Thats how it is...

    Are you sure ? I'm sure he will answer for himself "gozunda" TBH.

    He may never know what its like to be in the position of the OP and why, but to come in here with his size 12s and be disrespectful about what ones priorities should be when terminally ill, is pig ignorant in my opinion.

    I know, and I hope so too or not for a long time but it does seem rather trivial in comparison. From the pictures the damage doen't look all that big of a deal. Few hollows and humps. Sure we had cattle in the front of the house here several times and we never went claiming over it.

    The way the OP has come at this with court proceedings and the sherrif you'd swear someone had come in and dug the whole place up with a JCB.
    A real good way to make yourself look like a troublemaker in a rural community where everyone knows eachother.

    A troublemaker... Do you mean him or me

    By the way how did your claim work out for the dent in your 15 year old car, did you get cash from the old man for your time

    No worries - that was rhetorical but yeah I reckon akin to asking anyone "What the fúck is wrong with you." "STB" ..

    But dont worry about it ...

    I am surprised I had to ask. It was irrelevant, needless and ignorant as any sane person might agree. :)

    Anyway.... any chance of a picture of you and the farmer with a massive cheque for the boardsees Ginger ??

    Aye that's the point. With a rhetorical question no need 'to ask'. But Indeed the two were well matched...
