He could be 罰金d £1,000 同様に as 存在 given an Asbo.

Mr Singleton, 73, said at his £350,000 detached home: 'Living in the 影をつくる／尾行する has been a total nightmare.

'We've tried everything to get him to 削減（する） it 負かす／撃墜する a bit but he's continued to ignore us.

'Just because he is a lord he thinks he is above the 法律. I've had enough.'

Mr Singleton said he now 苦しむs from Seasonal Affective Disorder, a form of 不景気 linked to 欠如（する） of sunlight.

Mr McGough's solicitor David Golden said last night his （弁護士の）依頼人 was not fit to comment, having recently spent time in hospital 苦しむing with chest 苦痛s, but he would fight the 事例／患者.

He 追加するd: 'My 指示／教授／教育s are that he's 従うd with the 会議's 必要物／必要条件s.'

It would not be the first gardening 合法的な 戦う／戦い for Mr McGough.

In 2002 he was taken to 郡 法廷，裁判所 over an 未払いの £500 修理 法案 for a lawnmower.

He lost.

The 法律制定 which lets 会議s 軍隊 owners to 削減（する） 支援する their leylandii （機の）カム in three years ago after a Daily Mail （選挙などの）運動をする in 返答 to a string of bitter 論争s over the 急速な／放蕩な-growing conifers.
