    Flipping heck WOO - I go away for a couple of days and you have rebuilt Rome [​IMG]

    I showed hubby your progress and he reckons you have a little army of elves come in the night and do the work for you. He's only jealous because he has been thinking of doing my patio for 4 years now and no little elves have been to do anything. [​IMG]

    Grand job - finishing post in sight [​IMG]

    Hey Woo
    How's it going with those slabs?
    You must be some kind of superman to do all that hard work in such a short time. :D

    We are doing our side garden at the moment although we don't run with the same adrenaline as you do...plenty of tea and loads of talking very little work BUT we will get there! Well maybe :(
