Strong person needed to line trim lawn
Is there any strong person, looking to earn a few dollars, taking to my tiny, yet massively overgrown back yard, with my line trimmer?
The area is only about 7mx8m, but about 1m deep in grass. I can’t manage at the moment, as my ankle hasn’t healed enough to risk tripping over a hidden root or stump, or stepping in another hole, and it is quite uneven. So much so that it destroyed my last steel lawn mower, hence the line trimmer. Or poison.
It doesn’t normally bother me, but the area I can walk safely is now getting overgrown too, and my washing is hanging in the grass.
Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?
There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.
Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
