With a lot of shrieking and anger from a new-ish orchard manager who was patrolling apparently, I have now been told I cannot go in that orchard any more, and the gates have been wrapped in barbed wire loops, and deer-gaps in hedges filled with many blackthorns (as if that would stop me anyway. I am adept with barbed wire and thorns. And the Blackthorns, I opened up to make passageways again so they wouldn't hurt the deer.)
However, I was calm and polite with that man.
I kept it to myself that I have walked there freely and openly for 35 years, because a plan occurred to me. I am now applying for a legal right, via a law in Britain called an "easement by prescription".
I have a strong case. We will see what happens.
It is possible that my reporting the Otter sighting has "ruffled their fur". If so....I find myself questioning -why?
