A DESPERATE woman has turned to internet to seek help after a nosy neighbour cut down a tree so he could stare at her sunbathing.
She shared the unpleasant situation on Mumsnet, the UK's most popular forum for parents.
The recently-divorced single mum said that she lives in a ''really lovely close'' andher neighbors are ''supportive & kind''.
But despite being helpful – according to her, they would feet her cat when she's away and put the bins out – they're also ''unbelievably nosy'', especially the man.
''For example, when I was sunbathing on my trampoline he text me to check I was ok as he had 'noticed' I'd been asleep for a while.''

''On a number of occasions I've directly told him to stop nosing into my garden, and also in front of his wife,'' who, she added, has also told him off multiple times.
Trying to hide from the man's view, she would sunbathe by a tree, which she started growing purely for this reason.
However, this wasn't possible for long, as she discovered the neighbour had cut the tree during her absence over the festive period.
''I'm amused but equally fuming.''
Although her partner has promised to build a canopy over their patio in the spring, she said this has really ''p****d'' her off.
''They are generally really nice and kind people, but this is just a step over the mark.''
Readers shared their thoughts, with one pointing out: ''He can't trim a tree in your garden, only trim overhanging branches from your tree across the boundary line!!''
''If he has trimmed the top, I would be going round telling him he needed to buy me a new – taller – tree seeing as he wilfully damaged your one!!''
Another agreed, suggesting: ''The other thing you could consider is putting a trellis on top of the fence and growing clematis, or honeysuckle or some other plant on it, that would raise the fence height.''
''Get a camera so you've got proof,'' read a different comment.
