Neighbours kids

Irrelevant as my neighbours work standard hours.

Other people might have worked the previous night so a 10am start would still be shit for them, or working the following night so kids playing out at 5pm might be. You can't please everyone.

Yanbu. I didn't let mine disturb people before 10 at the weekend and luckily my neighbours are the same. People might want a lie in after working all week, and that's ok.

If I get up at ten, I feel like I've lost a morning, so I understand the sentiment.

LOL, one thing I didn't take into account when we shifted, was that the church has bells. Lots, and lots, of bells. Weddings. . . funerals . . . call to worship on Sundays (pre 9.00am tune up). . . practice. . .

Oh well. It still beats living opposite a full fricking pipe band practicing for three hours of a Wednesday evening!

We live in a family are but one of our neighbours have really noisy kids and a noisy dog. They drive many of us bananas. I think a lot of parents just don't know how to tell their kids no.

Yes have fun and play but don't shriek and don't be inconsiderate of others around you.

I'm howling at half the day is over by 10am!!

Not contradictory, I'm saying that's life and I'm saying it from a POV where I'm semi rural and it's still an issue. But it is life and you can't go around dictating others.

I think 9 is reasonable in the summer.

10 o'clock until I could go into the garden and do stuff on a sunday? I don't think so, 8.30 imo. But there is never any excuse for screaming kids, revving up motor bikes or cars for no apparent reason [other than acting like a dick] and the irritating men who insist on making loads of noise with angle grinders for hours on end. I really believe some of these men are lacking and have to prove themselves by making shit loads of noise to compensate.
Thankfully I moved away from all that shit and where I am now is very quiet. You could hear a seagull fart.😀

I try to keep mine inside until 9am. It's Sunday morning, people want to relax and have a lie-in, I would too if I didn't have young kids!

Since it's so hot, 8am is probably the better time for kids to play out.
Dog barking is a different issue. That's not ok at any time.

I have two young dc and do agree that people need to be more considerate, especially in the summer when people have their windows open. I have the rule of no being outside before 9am on a Saturday and 10am on a Sunday. Sunday is easy as they’re allowed unlimited tv / iPads until 10am whilst it’s a bit more rationed on other days. We did this when they were younger so we got peace and quiet. Our dc aren’t particularly noisy but they do annoy each other. I find it irritating to listen to so I wouldn’t subject my neighbours to do that either super early on a Sunday morning.

Don't be ridiculous. Half the morning's over, but not half the day. Different people sleep and wake at different times.

I think in this heat it’s perfectly acceptable to be out and about earlier than normal. Be that getting the children burning off energy, walking the dogs etc to then have everyone in / relaxed at the hottest point of the day. I’d then expect it would probably get louder again as it cools down the evening.

Mine have been in all day by their choice the silly sausages.

My NDN-but-one chucks her screamy kids into the garden at 6am whenever it’s sunny and warm. She herself has a voice like a foghorn and you can hear the family coming down the street from half a mile away.

Drives me mad that some people are just so LOUD. No doubt she has no concept of it at all.

YANBU about the screaming - shouldn’t be happening at any bloody time.

You're an asshole then. Just because you're awake, doesn't mean everyone else has to be. Hopefully karma will sort you out. Utterly selfish.

I think 9am is fine for a Sunday. Many people do shift work and it's hard to please everyone.

My pet peeve is bifold doors on semi detached houses. I like the concept of bringing the outside into your home, but where I live it's achieved the reverse.The inside is out, Glastonbury blaring whether I want to hear it or not !.

I like it when I hear my neighbours/kids etc making noise . I don't care how loud it is.

10? You're kidding. In this weather (or any) I'd be happy to hear kids out early. You have neighbours you have noise.
Maybe it's my area but there was even an organised 'let's beautify our street' drive and as so hot the call was to start at 8am planting up around a couple trees on the pavement this morning. I'm sure they weren't particularly quiet!

You sound Incredibly selfish

I let mine out at 9, 10 is ridiculous

We are potentially The Noisy Family here (two ND boys including ADHD, Tourette’s etc etc, a dog who hates squirrels, we use our garden a lot as an extension to the house which we have outgrown but can’t afford to move, I like having music on when I’m gardening etc)…

HOWEVER! I make sure my boys are quiet in the garden after 8pm as I know one side has a 5yo and their bedroom windows look over our garden and they are open in this heat (because I remember the bedtime struggles in summer when mine were small) and have told that neighbour to text me if we’re ever too loud. This morning I waited until 10:30am to strim and mow as the other side is a young couple (and I remember precious Sunday lay ins pre kids).

I don’t think it takes much to be good neighbours- it also helps them be more tolerant to our daytime and evening family noise!
