Much as he hated arguments or any kind of unpleasantness,......Ron Shir thought things had gone too far when, returning from a weekend in Clapton,
he found that his neighbour had trimmed the enourmous hedge dividing their gardens
into the shape of a human leg.
Enraged and envious beyond belief, Ron seized his garden shears and clipped his
white poodle Leo into a coffee table.
'That'll fix it,' thought Ron, but he was wrong.
The following Wednesday his neighbour had his bushy waist-length hair cut and
permed into a model of the Queen Elizabeth and went sailing.
Everywhere he went, people said 'Hooray!'
Sometimes you just can't win.
