To just want a cheeky lie in?

Despite having children who will sleep for Wales given the chance, I rarely get to sleep in because I usually have to be up and going somewhere! Therefore I was really looking forward to the days in the school holidays where I wasn't working, we had no plans and I could snooze undisturbed.

AIBU therefore to be put out that yesterday and today, designated sleep in days, I've been woken up by a neighbour using a very loud air pump out front of the house to inflate a paddling pool? At. 7.30am? I think she's running it off the car socket. I live in a terraced house that fronts to the street and this is directly outside my bedroom window thus SO LOUD.

Why does a paddling pool need to be blown up this early? It's possible that I'm just being a grumpy bitch, I am so tired lately due to illness/busyness and was really looking forward to a bit of extra sleep. Am I being U in thinking this is too much unnecessary noise, too early? I do like her lots but could cheerfully kill her at the moment!

Hmm I think YABU on this one but I do sympathise!

YABU to use the word cheeky Grin

I don't think you are being U on the pool. 7.30am is too early to do noisy things. I won't let my children out until 9.am as I am conscious of them waking people up.

Is cheeky U, U2? I don't normally use it. I think perusing g Overhead In Waitrose does funny things to me.
