To think you should not be mowing the lawn before 8 on a Sunday!

That’s it really.

Ugh. What's the rush? They should be waiting until 10 at least.

Every day is Sunday now...

Agree, not until 10 at least.

I’d shoot them.

I agree. I need to do mine today. Going to wait until after 10am

That’s so selfish!

It’s basically like deciding everyone nearby shouldn’t have a lie in .... selfish behaviour.

Selfish.

What's the rush? They can't have much planned for the next month or so

I have been wfh all week and homeschooling and sleeping really badly due to anxiety and finally was able to lie in. Not.

Why do people have to do it on a Sunday when most could do it any day, giving shop workers a chance to rest.

Just go back to sleep

Shop workers now work on a Sunday

Here in Germany it is illegal to cut your grass on a Sunday or after a certain time in the evening. And I love it.

Bit of a pain in normal times if you are working all week and then it rains in the Saturday but is lovely on tjhe Sunday - but you adjust.

They probably thought, oh the weather looks good today, I want to be able to enjoy it in the garden later so I'll mow it now. Never mind everybody else who need to catch up on some sleep. So, so selfish. I think I'd have to say something. But I'm a bit of a wimp so maybe I'd post a note through the door politely explaining that their garden doesn't exist in a soundproof bubble.

Just go back to sleep

It's not always that easy, unfortunately.

Sleep is important to our immune systems, waking people up is antisocial.

10 is civilised, 9 tolerable.

Oh Minesa I bet your Sundays are bliss! I love that idea. All we ever hear is the hum of mowers and strimmers. It's hard though isn't it, for some, Sunday is the only day off they get

The grass will be damp as well, one of our neighbours spent 3 hours yesterday afternoon burning garden rubbish. Washing and windows I just cleaned ruined.

I do like quiet Sundays and the shops are shut too. Is so peaceful.

But yesterday was really noisy - everyone our cutting their grass so we do get the noisy afternoons but just not on a Sunday.

Found the person and told him to stop. He did and said sorry!

Oh no no no. Very inconsiderate. Some of us are still working hard at home as well so weekend ilie in s sacrosanct. Although lots of mowing, banging and clattering during the week is a bit hard when trying to work.

It wasn’t possible to go back to sleep and it wasn’t his garden.. it was an unused drive to garages behind houses.

Sorry OP, I agree it is too early to be out mowing - but it is so nice to see a normal Mumsnet post about ordinary things and not Coronavirus!

Although someone else has now started up further away!

Everyday is not Sunday. some people are still working

that is wrong to mow the lawn so early
