Looks great Grandmage - How long has it been drying for ? Sometimes a little rain can help it drying out too fast and cracking in future days :)))

Looks much better than mine. You are in London and I would employed you to do it and perhaps save some money. Unless you are a very expensive technician from what I can see.

It looks brilliant, that photo needs a little more shed showing.....I wish I 'ad a shed.

Paul, not sure of quantities I'm afraid but it was sharp sand and cement mix! Thanks Lil & TT. Pim. I have photos of my shed on a blog somewhere, I afraid a shed is so necessary for storage isnt it? Now Costas, Lol, I didnt do this work but my friendly gardener who has been helping us out recently did it for us! He charges £10 an hour, +£5. he is wonderful and has transformed our garden this year for us, we are lucky. I just have been doing the planting and making it all look pretty!

It'll be great then :)))) Love the little stones in sharp sand - I always give it a brush over next day and really nice look to it. It does look very nice indeed Grandmage and keeps the water from shed.

Looks like a mosaic!!! Esp the 3 small pieces in the middle. Looks fab.

17 Oct, 2011

 

That looks good,now it's finished,Grandmage..I like the small bits here and there too..is that it now ..all finished in your garden?

17 Oct, 2011

 

I said that Lulu. I think it is the wide grouting/Pointing......Or all the plonking that's been going on.

17 Oct, 2011

 

!! Looks great GM!

Thanks Paul glad it will be ok! I will brush it over in the morning, just for you, Lol! Thanks Scottish & Lu. I thought it looked like a mosaic too Lol. but not nearly as good as yours! B. we are nearly finished, well sort of, my hubb has found that his workshop has subsidence so we are going to remove more trees and shrubs surrounding that area, so we are still working like mad, the nut tree has gone this week and next the fir trees will be lopped, always something to do isnt there! Pim. you are right it is the wide grouting I think that makes it look mosaic like. or as you say 'the plonking' or is that Hywels dept. Thanks Lu. I think it looks smart too. x
