Number1 absolutely got right on my wick. Would she have been OK with a randomer squeezing her baby’s cheek if the randomer had been white, because as we all know, white people NEVER commit crimes against children.
The blatant racism on MN ( cultural differences my unphotographed fanny) fucking disgusts me.

Oh here’s an unmumsnutter hug/hand hold for you. Thoughts and prayers, you must be crying and shaking so much right now

Well the delivery driver was a “man that couldn’t touch alcohol because of his religious beliefs” and of all the delivery drivers she has he is the most troublesome so I’m afraid you might have to add that one to your list my love

Two people were mowing their lawns at the same time creating a racket, can’t they schedule these things

Have some compassion.

They may have autism.

Or Alzheimer's - are they over 40?

Is it not better however to have more noise from two lawnmowers simultaneously mowing but for a shorter duration, than less noise for twice as long?

Well exactly. They could both have been suffering from early onset dementia and they thought they were actually hoovering the living room?

Honestly. Coming on here being all sensible…

Lawnmower logic problems are the real things that keep me up at night.

One is ancient, about 38 and one is basically dead, about 45, so maybe they do have dementia.

No, they should coordinate mowing one at a time while I am out of the house so as not to disturb me or my home.

All joking aside, I live in Glasgow and am fortunate enough to be surrounded by beautiful green areas/parks.

I love the sound of multiple lawnmowers buzzing away in the distance at this time of year.

Her problem probably relates to the 'amateur' nature of the grass-cutting, as opposed to the professional sort.

Perhaps she should move to a naicer area where people can afford to employ professionals? <head tilt>

I dont get why she couldnt open the door wearing her dressing gown? These are people who think nothing of taking a picture of their prolapses and putting them on mumsnet. As long as your bits and pieces are covered, open the door, throw shopping in hallway. Say thanks close door.

Loving the thread about the dog who’s so gorgeous and beautiful the male dogs can’t keep away and their lipsticks keep coming out at the sight of her. One for the collection along with a 6 figure earning DH with mystery hobby, tall hollow legged rugby playing sons who need constant peanut butter, and the teeny tiny frighteningly intelligent daughters who get on the ferries late and cause everyone to clap.

You let workers on your property? Gosh. You do know they poo…

I don’t care about the noise but I love the smell of freshly cut grass so much I love it when loads of people mow the lawn at once so it smells really strong!

Admittedly if you were to hear me cutting my own lawn, the noise of my lawnmower would be punctuated by me shouting "FUCK" when I ping a stone at my ankles.

It also coincided with her " breakfasting"
What a melt.

Then open the door with toast in hand. The driver will hardly be aghast at someone eating breakfast at breakfast time. They are loons.
There have been so many threads on Mumsnet over the years similar to ‘I am mortified I was breastfeeding and someone knocked on the door and I put the baby down and opened the door with my boobs out’ so I’m sure toast is really the least of what the driver sees on a daily basis

How does she know that? Has he told her?

It was all a big fuss over a minor inconvenience. Yes she’s disabled and that should be acknowledged but she’d got up and got out of the shower it wasn’t as if she was in bed and couldn’t get up and he left all her shopping outside.
