whomper Posted May 30, 2006 Author Share Posted May 30, 2006 (edited) so they've been doing this every sunday for however long, but it only gets to the point where something "has to be done" AFTER your friendship with them has taken a turn, the wives are feuding, etc.? 1491525[/snapback] Not really the case..Decided to post it today because this sunday was extra annoying as it was a holiday weekend and we were partying saturday night.. The mows the lawn with his hands Edited May 30, 2006 by whomper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 The fued isnt the reason for me not saying anything..Im big on harmony with the neighbors. 1491564[/snapback] So am I. The old guy who lives next door to me needs to fix the retaining structure that stops his garden falling in to mine but despite me mentioning it three times, he hasn't done anything yet. My back fence is being pushed over right now, so the time for neighborly courtesy is drawing to a close..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh 0ne Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Allow me to continue to beat the dead horse: Saturday's: 8 am Sunday's: 9 am Seems fair and reasonable to me. That's pretty much what everyone in the neighborhood adheres to, might even be a local law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Men In Tights Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I would say start doing your lawn later at night, say 8:00 pm, or when their favorite TV show is on. I would gear your question of waiting around your baby which will make it seem to them that they are doing it for the kids and not for you.

Hugh 0ne Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 9:00 both days. 8 is too early. 1491597[/snapback] 8 on a Saturday isn't early. No way. All the landscapers start work at 8 on Saturdays as well, and now we're talking heavy equipment, not just a lawn mower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proninja Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 The first house I owned, this concept of "other people sleeping" just hadn't clicked yet, and I mowed my lawn at 6:30 in the AM two Saturday mornings in a row. :bagoverhead: I typically wait 'til the afternoon to let the morning moisture go away now anyway.
