8am

FirstdatesFred · 29/03/2026 10:01

8am (although obviously today 8am will feel like 7am!)

pizzaHeart · 29/03/2026 10:01

This Sunday?
10 am please

audhdandme · 29/03/2026 10:01

I would say 10 on a Sunday

Devilsmommy · 29/03/2026 10:01

9 I'd say. As long as they weren't screaming 🤷

HelenaWaiting · 29/03/2026 10:02

I would say not before 9. A lot of people don't seem to realise how noisy trampolines are.

Morepositivemum · 29/03/2026 10:02

I’d say 9 o clock on? Although the stupid hour means technically that’s 8!! Actually when I was in an estate I’d hear kids at 7 in the summer and I get that would kill someone’s but I personally just smiled

I don't usually let them out till about 10 on a Sunday morning, that's when my neighbours kids start making noise outside too so I have just followed suit.

CallingOnTheMegaphone · 29/03/2026 10:02

Ideally 9am, but I probably wouldn't be too grumpy about any bouncing between 8 and 9. Before that though, definitely not acceptable.

MissingSockDetective · 29/03/2026 10:02

Maybe 8ish?

Villanellesproudmum · 29/03/2026 10:03

9 earliest. Any earlier is unfair on anyone forced to listen to it.

Squirrelsnut · 29/03/2026 10:03
  1. It's Sunday!
Boogery · 29/03/2026 10:03

Any avoidable noise before 10 ish on a Sunday is inconsiderate.

NormasArse · 29/03/2026 10:03

Is it just the bouncing noise, or vocals too?

Namechangetheyarewatching · 29/03/2026 10:03

9 am normally

But 10 am this morning as the clocks went back

ClubMedAlternative · 29/03/2026 10:04

8am is too early any Sunday! I’d say 9 at the earliest.

Easterbunnyishotandcross · 29/03/2026 10:04

10...

Stumblingalongthroughlife · 29/03/2026 10:04

It might depend on how big your garden is, but I'd say 9am, but given the clocks went forward overnight, 10am

Porkwithapplesauce · 29/03/2026 10:05

9am except this morning I'd say 10am. Mine are teenagers/adults now but we always had 8am weekdays and 9am weekends as neither of our immediate neighbours had dc at that point.

FourChimneys · 29/03/2026 10:06

8.00 am is generally fine. Earlier would be okay here, our neighbours are all of the "get up and get on with things on Sunday mornings" types so may well have left before 8 anyway.

Ineffable23 · 29/03/2026 10:06

9am, but 8am at a push. 8am today is too early given the clocks went forward last night.

Otterbabiesholdhandstosleep · 29/03/2026 10:06

8am. Same as lawnmowers. It’s nice and neighbourly to wait till a little bit later than that, like 9am, but it’s not realistic for everyone. Some people have kids who’ve been awake since 6 and are climbing the walls and some people need to mow the lawn before they do a bunch of other errands.
It’s a bit like it’s neighbourly not to have loud parties every Tuesday but the council’s noise control guidelines probably talk about excessive noise after 10pm so if the music’s a bit louder than you would like (but not over council guidelines) at 9pm every Tuesday it’s annoying but not unacceptable iyswim.

2chocolateoranges · 29/03/2026 10:06

9am during the week, 10am at the weekend. Anything else is unfair on neighbours.
