What time would you cut your lawn in the morning?

[moronic]

Assuming you use noisy petrol equipment, what time would you think is reasonable to start?

Yesterday (sunday) had a women go loopy cos I started at 10am... Apparently I was disturbing her sleep!

[TimJMS]

Ho' should have been at church by then.

[carlingofblack]

Silly moo. 10am is fine.... I would suggest 9:00/9:30 on a sunday.

[ThunderSpook]

9 is fine.

Although in this case I suggest you go out and just finish off the tufty bits now.

[Pints]

Another vote for 9.

I quite like the sound of an early morning mower. It makes me feel all weekendy.

[CharlieHotel]

I would say 10 onwards sounds reasonable.I think 9 is a bit inconsiderate but it all depends on how loud it is I guess?
Best way to think about it is, if you went out for a drink the Saturday night, came in at 2 or 3, would you want somebody mowing at 9?
I know some people get up really early after a night out sometimes, I'm one of them people.

[jagnet]

Some people really do love complaining for the most spurious of reasons. 10am is perfectly acceptable on a Sunday. I'd say anything after 9am is fine.

Start at 9am next week and if she complains explain you've got a potential buyer who wants to take it for a 50 minute test drive at a steady 3mph to confirm mpg.

On that basis there could be people coming back home at 6am so perhaps no mowing before midday.

Screw em, dirty stop-outs. The world doesn't stop because someone fancies a late night.

Any time suits you. As they say, "If you can't sleep, your not tired", tell her to foxtrot oscar next time......

[Fleckers]

bloke next door waits till he hears us/kids are up, in fact someone round here is cutting grass now

me, I have astroturf

[Liquid Knight]

Quarter past three depending on how much I've had to drink.

My grandad told me it was best to cut the lawn in the evening, but I have heard early morning is ok so long as theres not too much dew. I would say that 10am is too late as the suns up by then and the grass can get scorched.

I'd tell the neighbor to suck it up - she probably does something that annoys you, but you have been to polite to mention. Or maybe she would prefer that you left your garden unkempt with perhaps an old sofa for decoration

Marvellous stuff, ain't it!
Which reminds me, I need to get my mower and trimmer on ebay.

[nevgroom]

Well I need to try to do mine before the rain comes and figure I should wait until 10am. As the general consensus on here seems to be 9am (for a Sunday), I may apply that to B.H. Monday to dbe sure I beat the weather.................

[soad]

Should have given her a pair of earplugs!!! ?
Ten is fine really, although one or two might like to sleep in til eleven or so. Anyone cuts their lawn in the afternoon?

[Liquid Knight]

Cut it too early and she can't hear the Jeremy Kyle show cut it too late she misses Loose Women. You can't win.

[Hugo a Gogo]

no cutting grass at all on a Sunday in Germany

neighbours will all come out and remind you that zis is not allowed

[thinfourth2]

not unknown for me to cut the grass before going to work

I love having no neighbours

[Johnnytheboy]

Later the better, for the grass's sake.

10am is perfectly acceptable socially.

[Simpo Two]

I'm hardly an early riser but I think anybody should be up by 10.00am unless they're either shift workers or pig lazy.

I always seem to have one set of neighbours who spend all day in dressing gowns. What's that all about then?
