Eek I feel a bit guilty. Next door have suddenly started putting up ‘engagement celebrations’ bunting in their garden and cranking up the BBQ, clearly preparing for a party.
DP and I have paid a man to do quite a lot of work to our garden this weekend (and earlier in the week, when the majority of the noisy stuff was done). DP has also shifted his shifts (he works a lot of weekends) so he can do some of the work with the man. Work involves some banging, sawing, a few power tools. Nothing constant or truly awful but I feel guilty.
On the one hand, they didn’t mention the party. On the other, not hugely nice for their guests. On my —invisible— third hand, we’ve got no other reasonable timescale to get this work done and we’ve paid for it.
Should I just call it off?
