Is 10am too early to mow a lawn at the weekend?

I'm pushed for time and need to get this done otherwise it will have to be left for several weeks as I'll be away. On the other hand, I don't want to disturb my hard-working neighbours at the weekend. What do you think?

No, 10am is fine.

MyNewWittyUserName · 27/05/2023 09:50

I'd wait til 12.

blametheparents · 27/05/2023 09:50

10am is absolutely fine. Get mowing!

Zippedydoo123 · 27/05/2023 09:50

It is fine from any time 9am onwards. Honestly up do not fret whatsoever.

Cocteautriplet · 27/05/2023 09:50

Not at all! - before 8 maybe but 10am is fine.

Brightyellowshoes · 27/05/2023 09:51

Yes 10am definitely fine.

BitOutOfPractice · 27/05/2023 09:51

I’m a big fan of a weekend lie in and I think 10am is fine!

AndrexPuppy · 27/05/2023 09:51

10am is fine! Crack on.

marshmallowsforbreakfast · 27/05/2023 09:51

10am is fine! I'd say anything after 9 is acceptable

Thebigblueballoon · 27/05/2023 09:51

What? No. Mow away!

Allmarbleslost · 27/05/2023 09:52

10 is fine! I'm getting my lawnmower out in a minute before I head out for the day. Won't get done otherwise!

SirVixofVixHall · 27/05/2023 09:52

Ten is fine. It is kind of you to be so considerate of your neighbours. 🙂

BonnieGlasses · 27/05/2023 09:52

I think 10am is fine. I appreciate peaceful weekend mornings but at that time it's fine to crack on with the noisier chores.

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 27/05/2023 09:54

Go for it

MuffinToSeeHere · 27/05/2023 09:55

10 is absolutely fine especially on a very warm day, no one wants to be out at midday mowing the law.

I'd wait til 12.

Wow you're too nice 😂

Yerroblemom1923 · 27/05/2023 09:56

10 is fine. Crack on.

Fundays12 · 27/05/2023 09:56

10 am is fine. We often have kids out playing in our area at 9.30 am on hot days.

Tinkerbyebye · 27/05/2023 09:57

9am onwards is fine

Qilin · 27/05/2023 10:18

Someone has been doing there's near here from just after 9.
I did comment to dh it felt a bit early in a weekend morning - mainly as I was in bed enjoying a drink and breakfast with the windows open so it was disturbing me.
But I guess 9ish on a Saturday isn't overly early.
Would prefer10ish on a weekend but that's because I've the advantage of being able to enjoy a lazy morning these days.

Backtothegym · 27/05/2023 10:23

I think it’s fine after 8, ideally after 9, it’s ludicrous to suggest you can’t get on with things so you’re neighbours can pretend they don’t live close to others, how entitled would that be,

dubyalass · 27/05/2023 10:26

Someone's got the angle grinder out here already so I'd say crack on!

megletthesecond · 27/05/2023 10:27

After 8 is fine IMO. We live crammed on top of each other and have to put up with a certain amount of noise.

AutumnCrow · 27/05/2023 10:27

The bloke over the road waited till 09.50 to rev up his very powerful motorbike and take it for a spin, and I thought it was very considerate of him!

Floralnomad · 27/05/2023 10:28

9 am is fine for lawns at weekends .
