Jean-Paul mowing this morning |
Sunday morning, the sun is shining
and the only sound you can hear is birdsong and .... lawn mowers! It’s like being in suburban England on a
weekend. Everyone in our small French
hamlet is mowing their grass this morning at the same time.
Is it a national grass mowing day?
What’s happened to my haven of peace and tranquility?

On Saturdays we often wake to the sound of machines of grass destruction. When we don't I worry that the zombie apocalypse may have happened.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite unusual for everyone to be mowing here at the same time, there are only half a dozen houses in our hamlet.
DeleteOnly another couple of months and grass mowing will be over for another year.
ReplyDeleteThe mornings and evenigs definitely feel autumnal now.
DeleteOnly permitted between 10:00 - 12:00 Sunday and Jour Férié in our village.
ReplyDeleteI don't think we have any restrictions here.
DeleteI looked at mine and decided it didn't need doing.
ReplyDeletePhilippe spends a lot of time looking at his, he usually waits until it's a foot high.
DeleteI despise weekend mowing and that is when everyone wants to do it. My theory was always to mow on Thursday. That way you weekend is free for fun things.
