Here in France, we're legally forbidden from being noisy during Sundays, isn't there something similar to guarantee at least one day of peace?

- bowsamic 3y agoIn Germany we also have that, but I'm British and in the UK there was nothing like this. People do full on loud drilling work on Sundays with no issue from their neighbours. There may be "officially" laws to restrict noise on Sunday in the UK, but it's not socially expected at all. Here in Germany everyone knows not do on Sunday, not so in UK. My wife is also British and she hates the Germany noise restriction, she wants to be able to make as much noise as she wants whatever day she wants. That's simply the British way. Though her mum is French and she prefers it the German way.
- gambiting 3y agoIn Poland it's also socially unacceptable to be making noise on Sunday. I don't think there are any actual laws against it, but no one ever cuts the grass on a Sunday for instance. And yes, I also live in the UK now and it's really annoying that people don't keep Sunday noise free, with all the cutting drilling and what have you. Oh well, different society, different expectations.
