I think it's less rules are rules and more about consideration for the neighbours.

As a neighbour I'll be fairly relaxed about noise from other neighbours -- after all we all trying to get different things done around the house.
But if one of the neighbours' had a tiler with a saw cutter working most of Good Friday, Easter Saturday and Easter Sunday come Anzac Day I'd be looking for blood.
same goes with cutting fence posts.

It's like noise from a party. Occasionally is OK, but if it's every Friday and Saturday night

Ian ,I agree wholeheartedly with you, the pity is it was one day on seperate w/ends.Cheers Richie

Can you tell this to the "knob" over my back fence.

He has a huge pergola area and every morning, and I mean every morning at about 7.30ish he fires up the the petrol leaf blower thing and gives it a clean,

When my neighbor used to go on for a bit too long with his leafy I used to fire up the baby 1972 McCulloch. It was only 50 cc but it is LOUD! Only had to do it a few times and now he's pretty quick about it.

Nice one BobL, I thought of taking the muffler off the mower and running it flat out sometimes but as of yet haven't done this

Must be different rules about diferent noises and at what time. Complain about noisy late night parties and the police wnt all your deatails so they can tell the noise makers who complained!!!
