Sunday day off or another day of work

[Tomr10]

As I have said we just do a bit of farming for a hobby and we have a lot of houses around so it's not often we do anything noise on a sunday.

I know people need to feed and the such but if you had a lot of houses around you what would you do.

This isn't just a shouldn't move to the country moan.

I'm sat in my garden in a housing estate and somebody is flat out building an extension.

So what are sundays for should people show some consideration espe9as people are stuck in the houses at the moment

Somebody is very lucky to have the materials to build an extension, must have got them before everybody shut up shop

They have also got a mini digger going

No Sunday work here , unless absolutely nessscery Old saying work Sunday. Mend Monday , will hopefully snatch a spay tankfull tonight if wind drops .
will combine too if catchy , and never start a job we cannot finish on a Friday

I've laid block paving on a sunday only because Ide done the prep work on saturday ,,not used the stihl saw though,,to much dust in the neighbor's G&T .
I try not to work sundays if avoidable but sometimes if the weather looks dodgy then I will ,,soon as this malarkey has lifted ,I think I'll not know which direction to go first

I only do the nessesary on sunday. Somethin badly wrong if ye cant have a few hours of on sunday plus like gettin to church

 

[ridger]

Do as little as possible on sundays. Used to work every other one, but I have really started to appreciate time with my boys since the new year.

 

[its.... only me]

Plenty to do, not drilled up yet - but weather set dry so a day off..... treat the wife to some “quality time” we’ve been cleaning bricks with air chisels.

But are you in a built up area

But are you in a built up area

Thankfully not. Our build/ yard is approx. the most southerly in our small hamlet

When the weathers settled like this. It will always wait till tomorrow.

Pressure off. Plenty people still moaning though

 

[Jackov Altraids]

I never expect anyone else to work on a Sunday but generally it is just another day for me.
I think everybody has too much pressure on their time and they should be free to use what free time they have to do what they want. With so many working shifts/ nights/ weekends, you could be disturbing someones sleep at anytime of day or night of the week.

 

[ILovebaling]

Sundays just another day really. For no particular reason I guess it's the day to have a quiet day when possible. I have no qualms about being busy and making a noise on a Sunday though it has to be said, annoying someone isn't really a concern 'because it's a sunday', not sure there is a law about it is there? Call me what you will

 

[Tomr10]

I guess it's a bit of a courtesy like play loud music in the garden or sat with my non standard exhaust motorcycle running it's nice to have a level of piece

 

[TripleSix]

Oh god, I've been muckspreading today.
And we had the sawbench going making posts.
And lambing sheep
And fixing my van
And sorting out a windblown tree
And I'm just about to go collect a trailer with the tractor.

Idiot.

Who me? it's a simple question. Did you do all this withing 100yds of other peoples houses. So far slightly more people that at least do less on a sunday than a normal "work day"

 

[Barmyfarmer]

After a very wet unproductive winter, Its a nice relief to be able to get on the ground and get something done whether it's a Sunday or not

 

[thorpe]

if busy its just another day but dont start feeding till 8.30 dont want to upset anyone that said they dont mind upsetting us somtimes like letting them know theres still one farm left in the village.

If we have work to do around houses especially spraying we try to organise it so that we don't have to on weekends. If we do we will try to do it on saturday instead. If we have to do it on a Sunday we will but just try and avoid where possible.
