Finally a weekend where I wasn't woken up by mowers!

... It was concrete trucks at 6:30am instead. Followed by concrete vibrators, levelers, hammers, and impact drivers making ugga duggas.

They stopped about 9ish, which was obviously the cue for the mowers and leaf blowers to start cause it's now the two-stroke Olympics __ Ah suburbia.

I was gonna say, I thought excessive noise on a weekend was illegal but apparently it is allowed between 7am and 7pm on a Saturday.

My brother in Christ, the third point down the bottom of this noise nuisance page:

Select your equipment carefully and consider the noise level when you buy new equipment. You could try sweeping instead of using a leaf blower, composting instead of mulching, or electric devices instead of petrol engines.

But Kev needs a powerful and loud 2 stroke everything to tend to his 30m2 lawn, anything else just won't do!
