Cutting back my neighbour's forest

My neighbour's buddleia has grown since I'd trimmed it in the spring so I went in for another go yesterday evening. While doing so I spotted 6 ash tree saplings and one elderflower sapling so I sawed those down. One ash tree sapling was 2 inches (about 10 cm) in diameter near the bottom. There's probably enough ash of a decent thickness to be sawn up to make an hour's burning in the wood burning stove. Because Dorothy is not doing very much in the middle and the bottom of her garden there was nothing under the buddleia branch that stretches crosswise across her garden so I could saw that down. It now needs lopping and sawing into small peices. The gaffer tape on my loppers have stopped holding the loppers together, and the next time I am in a DIY store I plan to treat myself to a new pair.
