How long does it take the average British worker to trim some bushes?
I ask as for the third morning running, "they" are doing the bushes in the social housing estate which backs onto my property. Having been around the back looking for kittens previously (and no, that's not code for something else) I am clear that there aren't that many bushes/trees which need trimming so why are they taking so long.
It also irritates me that they started work at 7.30am this morning when quite a few people will still be in bed/just getting their head together for the day. I do think there should be a: "No noise til the first cup of tea is down" rule!
EDIT: Actually, I was wrong, its not the workpersons over the back still trimming bushes, its one of my neighbours having their trees trimmed. At 7.30am!!! This irritates me more than the above example as, as with the vast majority of people down this street, they are bloody retired so could have asked the tree fellers to come around at a reasonable time. What is it with retired persons? I know when I give up work in a couple of years time, I won't be rushing to get things done first thing in the morning!
Anyway, have my axe ready to go and help....
