So

Sitting in the garden enjoying early evening sunshine. And our neighbour started up his new chainsaw.

It went on for a bit, echoing across the valley.

And DH went round (appropriate social distancing) to ask would he mind not doing it right now as it’s a lovely Sunday evening and we can’t leave him to it and piss off to the pub.

And he said sorry and switched it off.

No diagram required, just a civil discussion with lots of smiles.

This never happens on MN!

You're obviously a good neighbour. Glad you sorted it out amicably.

Edit: Your DH is, but presumably you are as well. Smile

AIBU?

@TigerDroveAgain. You should have screamed at him about the risks of using chainsaws, injuring himself and cluttering up the A & E corridor.

Lol, we shared a driveway amicably with our neighbours for 20 years. They are now sharing amicably with the people we sold our house to. Cos we are all nice civilised beings.
