Can anyone recommend a place where I can borrow tools for a one time use? I'm working on the lawn soon and need one-time things like a lawn leveler/soil spreader, pitchfork, crimper etc. Really not interested in purchasing one even second hand just to use it once :/

Who's watching the tennis with me? It's getting spicy
Whenever I see someone recommend Much Ado About Nothing (1993), I feel like it should come with a warning. I see it come up in a lot of period drama comedy recommendations, and while the film is good and funny, if you don't understand iambic pentameter you're in for a very unfunny time.
Same goes for The Hollow Crown (Henry IV adaptation), excellent mini series, but again good luck following along if you don't understand iambic pentameter.
Good news, if you want your led light up Christmas reindeer they are now in stock at Big W!
🎼🎶I have a long temper
Until a certain point
It takes a lot, to get to me
Usually people don't get there
But then, when this dude has an angry cranky day
So damn the devil, then I go haywire
When I have deficiency of a vitamin
Then I go haywire
Then I go haywire
When I have deficiency of caffeine
Then I go haywire
Then I go haywire🎶🎶🎶
Just hopped into bed and the cat keeps softly licking my arm and then very softly nibbling at it. No idea what he's up to, but I can see the headline now, "lonely shiftworker eaten alive by beloved cat in the night".
'cat escapes stormwater drain and eats owner".

It’s so difficult to keep on top of everything and my hair is giving me the shits. Tempted to go a pixie cut but that’s just more maintenance
I'm doing an on line shop and noticed all the champignon mushies are sold out and the exotic mushies are still available 🥺
Does anyone have recommendations for couriers they use to ship things interstate?
I'm looking to buy a device second hand from interstate. Some may come in a box some might not but it can weigh up to 20kg and in a (relatively) decent sized box ~(70cmx40cmx40cm)
Are there services that pick up from the persons house or would they have to go into a place to ship it off? They tend to stay on the market for a while so I'm sure the person wouldn't mind.
I tried looking into backloading but it seems like too much trouble for minimal savings. Looked at courier sites and wasn't sure if I was doing it correctly but it was estimating ~$80 which is actually not too bad. Would much rather go off of recommendations. My concern is also payment, I essentially have to trust the other party to ship it off once paid.
