I think you need to remember that it was your garden that decided where
to put the patio. If you stop maintaining it, their view will not be as
nice :)
I would tell them if they are having a special affair, to let you know
not to be in your gardening gear. But also that you have to maintain it
on your schedule.
Either that or build a high privacy fence and really tick them off
:)LOL!
So now you have me wondering.... what size area do we all garden in....
