Biased huh? Maybe I am. But then, when someone is yelling their complaints for all to hear and insulting your family at the same time, wouldn’t you lose all cares for objectivity? For me, yes, but maybe for you, No, I guess

As to the authorisation, as per the law, the construction I’m doing doesn’t require any specific permission, but thank you for making me aware of the need for asking authorisation!

One last thing, I agree neighbours have the right to contest, but I’m sure they need to have a good and valid reason to oppose the construction, right? The neighbour in question would in no way be disturbed by what is being built. It isn’t even near their house and won’t even impede on their yard.

And yeah, thanks for reading

Seriously now … I guess your story should be biased on your side. Did you obtain authorization from the municipality or village council before starting the construction? You might be angry but, you have to ask permission first and usually neighbours have the right to contest and revert such authorization … that’s the rule of law that nobody observes in Mauritius.

@ Timi,Thanks! This world’s evil witches are truly resilient, alas! It’s tiring to have to deal with those people on a day-to-day basis, so I hope too that this matter gets resolved quickly!

@ Nus, Glad you liked it! You’re evil through and through *joins in evil laughter* Wonder what awaits the ‘other neighbour’!

Quite a nice touch of fantasy with reality… I really love it =)

I don’t know why people can be so nosy sometimes, and on top of that, dare to throw insults at others, thinking that they are right when obviously they are not. *points to my own neighbours* I wonder if it’s really such a pleasure to have a feet or two from other people’s land. We keep getting harassed by those freaking people because they ‘thought’ we had a door opening on their side or something. *smirks* We went to the authorities and everything got settled. *evil laughed*

*eyes another neighbour* Action should be taken very soon concerning that one.

Throughout time, I guess you will always have the evil witches of this world; some people are just impossible to reason with and can only ever see one side of a story and a dispute. Annoying neighbours are probably the most worst people on the Planet, for no matter where you go, they will always still be there next to you, waiting for the next dispute to arise

I love how you’ve transformed the incident into a fable; it was really humorous and something that I’m sure most people around the world will be able to relate to

I hope everything gets resolved okay
