    Did you do it to music, MEF750? A sort of rock-music might have been appropriate ;) :D

    Some of those bits are ENORMOUS - hope you didn't do it all by yourself!! :eek:

    Well done, mef750! I remember heaving humongous rocks around to make my rockeries and path edgings ... did get the occasional help from t'other half if I was about to collapse lifting / rolling them! :rolleyes:

    Horrendous thing was I did it in the heat and I don't remember losing any weight at the time! Probably had something to do with the beers I was drinking at rest time! :eek: :eek:
