RE: Bye Bye Garden..

What everyone else said, Sue.  This looney tunes will only continue to make
your life miserable with his (I'm sure) increasingly ridiculous restrictions
and demands.  Better off out of it.
  
Good luck with your search!'

Amen to all of that Sue.  And what a jerk this son is.  If it were me, I'd
pot everything up I could and make tracks as soon as practical.  And I
wouldn't be too neat about tidying anything up when I dug stuff up either.
I hate it that this has happened, and hoping you find something great (and
all yours) very, very soon!
