All sorted
Junko met Steven today, our new neighbour. Turns out her first encounter was possibly slightly misrepresentative as he was very accepting of our new border arrangements. In fact, he even seemed a bit apologetic that he may have been a little over-enthusiastic with his own original claim. Anyway, the issue is now resolved and Junko offered the idea of sharing the pear tree which he seemed glad to accept.
Junko also reported that the Eastern Threesome (Jiji, Junko and Joe) had been working hard today planting fruit and other indiginous flora, so I will be off tomorrow to inspect and take a few pictures for the blog. Looks like we may have really started something good here. Thanks Jiji!
