Auto-translated to English by AINow, heavy tree felling, I was against it! In connection with climate change, to stop tree felling and not to mention clean air in the neighbourhood. Traffic, increased a lot over the years! If a resident was parked in a parking space, please remove the car! There was a move, long-term parking in front of my house (without my permission!) Anonymous notes distributed in the past about dog walking nuisance, cats visiting front gardens, cat poop. Bird poop, don't put food in the birdhouse, you get bird poop! After my husband's death, I received a flower wreath in my bin (unbelievable, right?) So, I could go on for a while!
