The trouble with Summer ..... !!!
...... there's always some ars*hole out with their power tools!!!!
After an early start, I just had a hard day on the Moors.
Came home, showered, poured a nice cool beer, sat out in the sun ...... then the prat (somewhere a few houses away) fires up his "noise machine"!!
Lawnmowers, strimmers, hedge cutters, leaf blowers, drills, sanders, saws, concrete cutters, grinders etc etc etc.
With the amount of affordable power tools, coupled by the number of affluent owners nowadays, it's no wonder I can't get any peace !!!!!!
Think I'm going to move out of everyone's way and back to (some remote part of) Scotland!

Some people are quite inconsiderate but when they are working all week, weekend is when the home maintenance tends to take place.
What I can't understand is retired people. Why the feck do they go shopping on Saturday when they've had all week to do it? Mods:
Front Fogs + Halos
FBH Remote Control
The 1st Ever RRS Modded Grill
Garmin Nuvi + D4 Surround + Reversing Camera.
D4 Steering Wheel.
Rear Boot Spoiler.
Twin Brake Lights.
Wing Mirror Indicator Repeaters.
Long Roof Rails

I'm not scared, I'm outta here.

Coz the reduced steaks are on offer on a Sunday.
Not quite Saturday but close enough for government work.

You add to this idiots kicking a ball about and shouting at the top of their voices. Nothing more annoying when you are trying to get a bit of sun. Could add car alarm/house alarms going off and then there are those morons who don't seem capable of closing car doors without half a dozen goes.
