Title: When is a suitable time to mow your lawns on a Bank Holiday?
Post by: SoundbiteBarmyArmy on May 03, 2021, 02:00:29 pm
Someone down our street at 09:15 this morning. I understand not everyone can sleep in and wants to get on with stuff, and if it was a normal working Monday, I'd understand, but when it's a day of rest, is it a bit inconsiderate?

9.15am is reasonable in my opinion

What about those poor buggers who are in bed after being on nights? Not many people consider them! A mate of mine who worked at Bentley pit could never sleep on the night shift because of all the banging and clattering. He had to wait until he got home in the morning.

I was thinking that, regards the forecast.

Maybe I'm just being mardy because I was in one of those lovely, deep sleeps when I was disturbed haha.

Any power tool before 9AM is a no no IMO.

At least the rain stopped any bonfires we are plagued with.
