Neighbour cutting his grass

Meauldsegosha

The neighbour is cutting his grass at 8 in the morning. He's woken me up and I'm not impressed.

The really annoying thing is the man unfotunayely lost his job about 6 months ago so could have done this at any time of the week. Why do it on a Saturday morning and ruin my lie-in : (

Rant over. But what is an acceptable time to start that kind of think at the weekend.

About half 8

It's a nice day, he is actually doing you a favour lie ins are highly over rated.

No point telling us, tell him, your objections are reasonable, he really doesn't have to cut the grass at that time.

Strangely enough 8 am is the earliest you can make noise with machinery outside.

Sure why would you want to be in bed past 8, waste of a day!

bbam

I think 7am is the time before which it's unacceptable.

Liamario

I think it's closer to 10.

In any event, who the hells mows their lawn a 8 in the morning. **** sake!

But, what if I'm joined in bed, by a Swedish masseuse, big boobs, nymphomaniac, I'd consider it a waste of day leaving the bed then...

So at 7am its ok to start. I think 9am is closer to acceptable. I wouldn't do noisy work around the house before that.

If I can have a Swede without boobs I'm all for that idea.

Mr.Crinklewood

Did you do something to annoy him?

Could this be revenge?

A previous flatmate was prone to hoovering the landing at 0900 on an occasionally Sunday morning.

Thats nothing OP, once had a neighbour in cork where the wife used polish her front wall (cement block) at 6am every morning and her husband once started chasing their kitchen wall on St Stephens Day :mad:....but revenge will be mine.......;)

phill106

Considering he is out of work 6 months, he is doing well to be up early and have a fresh start to the day.
Would you prefer he sat at home all day drinking dutch gold and watching jeremy kyle?

Throw some clothes on and cut your own grass, and maybe your neighbours too while you are at it.

I'm picturing your neighbour with a can of Mr. Sheen and a duster at her front wall.

I don't have any grass. And he can drink as much Dutch gold and watch Jeremy kyle as he wants it doesn't effect me. But have some consideration for your neighbours and cut your grass at a reasonable time.

Then you wouldn't be able to hear the lawnmower because your face should be buried between her boobs or thighs(or if she is flexible, both)

My neighbour was cutting his lawn at 8 this morning as well...inconsiderate bastard. I couldn`t hear him though because I`ve been messing around in my helicopter since 6. :pac:

I didn't call anyone a sponger or make assertions on anyone. I don't expect anyone to stay in bed until 12 unless they want to, in another post I said 9am was a reasonable time to start this kind of work on a weekend.

Peetrik

I think the OP is dead right to be annoyed. 8am is taking the piss regardless of its legality.

Its a fallacy to use the legality of an action to determine its social acceptability. If your neighbour has a baby, I'm sure it's still legal to play music at the maximum allowable db at 10pm but socially it's still an as$hole thing to do.
Legality is invariably affected by money in any case, trains generate tax income and so their noise is ignored, factories generate income and so their pollution is acceptable.

IMO 11am-11pm is fair game (excluding extenuating circumstances such as babies, new years eve)

Your neighbour?

To me the weird thing is the psychology, who the hell mows the lawn the minute it is needed. That is a chore you put off and off till you have a savannah out your back.

Mine needs doing so I will do it at about 4,5, 6 nah probably tomorrow, but I might get another week out of it,,gawdddd,

Haha... made me think of this bit from Alan Partridge...


"Hello? Oh, hello. I’d like to speak to Fernando Partridge, please. [Irritated] It’s his father. [Calmer] It’s his father. Ah, hello. Who’s she? Is she your latest… ah, right. You both sound exhausted, have you been running? I was just wondering if you wanted to go for a drink. Yep, [sighs] Fernando, you’re twenty-two years old and you’re spending Saturday afternoon in bed with a girl. You’re wasting your life. It’s a beautiful day. Take her out to a local fort or a Victorian folly. Yeah, of course. Look, your mum and I, believe me, we did it everywhere. You know, in the lounge, in the hall, behind a large boulder on Hel Vellyn on my birthday. Actually, that is where you were conceived. Well, we just didn’t take precautions. No! No, we were delighted. Well, I mean, at first I was mortified, you know, but, then you were born and we grew to like you. I remember I left a tartan flask up there. One of those very fragile ones with the screw-on cup stroke cap. These days they’re much more resilient. They took the technology from NASA, basically, which is extraordinary. Modern flasks today are directly linked with the Apollo 11 space mission. Hello? Oh, sod him."

If you live in town/estate I would say 10am is acceptable on a sat/sun morning. If you live in the country any time between 8/9am is acceptable.

skirtgirl

I think it is rude and inconsiderate to be cutting grass at 8am. I work night shifts and the amount of times iv wanted to kill my neighbours when I hear the lawn mower or their screaming kid is unreal. I have every sympathy for the op.

Blessed are the grass cutters

Fair play to him getting up and out there. Stay busy that's the trick.

You want him to stay up all night and cut it while you are at work? Your neighbours do not have to live their lives around your working hours tbf.
