    Here`s the problem. The edging is all crumbling and the Yorkshire stone is lose.​
    Project is to rip the stones and bedding and start again.​
    I know its not much of a "project" but I`m posting it because I know then that you guys will expect me to finish.!​

          Blimey mate, you're not expecting to get it signed off today are you? I mean ... even getting someone out there with the reel of red tape this week is pretty doubtful. Then there is the fuel strike, won't be able to come out then, and if that clashes with the Easter public holidays we'll have worked coming out of our ears, probably mid Summer at best I reckon ...
