Winter 05:00 till about 18:00/19:00

 

Summer 05:00 till 21:00/22:00. God I love long summer days!

 

Seven days a week. I'm climbing the walls if I get stuck inside for any reason.

 

How do you do 3 hours before it's light?

 

I've tried starting earlier, but it's not worth the hassle you get from the noise police!

Its very relative to the job and travel involved. I've been out at 5 home by 2, 6 till 8 etc etc....

I'd say generally its yard for 7-8, leave yard 4-5. Travel is a major factor of what we all do so earlies and lates are common place. Enjoy!

Oddbird,

 

That's the point of being self employed. It's no longer about earning the dollar but enjoying myself at last. Yep, it means I have to work when I have to work but then I get time off when I want time off. And yes, mesterh, I don't stop once I'm going. I find if I stop I have an issue with motivation to get off my backside so I keep plodding along until I or my legs have had enough. I catch a drink on the run and don't usually eat until I finish. Sounds odd but it works for me.
