Leylandii Hedge

I know Leylandii trees have often been the source of many a neighbourhood spat, but I, for one, have no objections to my 'over the hedge' neighbour cutting this one down. Not so sure about the 'over the fence' next door neighbour, though, as this will reduce her privacy for topless sunbathing. I can sense a fight in the offing! It's a bit of a mammoth task removing this 20-odd year old conifer hedge and I should have taken him up in his offer to pose in his bikini for the shot.
