To think he should leaf blow somewhere else?

I'm sitting in a ten acre park waiting for an exercise class to start while drinking a coffee. I'm the only person sat in this park. There are some other people around but they're all moving through to somewhere else.

Is it unreasonable to think that the guy with the incredibly loud petrol power leaf blower should be blowing the leaves in another area first, rather than right beside my bench?

Leaf blower not lead blood!! Why can't we edit titles?

I mean he's just doing his job, what if someone was sat on all benches.

Why don't you move instead of expecting the man working a tedious job to stop what he's doing for your convenience?

Could you move?

Why would he expect me to do that, I was here first and he arrived and started the process of clearing half a mile of paths right by my side?

I guess you need the exercise to burn off your excess crazy mental energy?

I thought you meant 'bleed blood', and someone had a severe trauma injury and you were annoyed their blood has splattered onto you or your clothes?! 🤣

Yes.

Why? The park is empty except for me and he has a total of at least half a mile of paths to clear.

Maybe get Mumsnet to fix your title before the thread gets going!

Yes.
