Last year, the in laws insisted on helping us out, and having the 40ft single (2x2) slab path alongside the house extended by a slab, to make it easy for the Mrs Wheelchair to whizz by. They asked their gardeners to do it. Said gardeners came round, measured and quoted the in-laws who OKd the job.
Monday morning, lorry delivers big "sugar bag" of sand, and - my heart sank - a bag of cement. I had to go to work, and when I got back guys had just finished. They dug the whole lot by hand.
That was last September. Going along it in the dark, yesterday, I nearly tripped .. their slabs are now uneven to the tune of 1/2" in places.
Of course it's now a delicate situation ... especially as the in-laws "don't use them anymore" ...
So now I've got to find a way to get them relay *properly* with the additional complication that they have ****ed up the slabs with their "5 blobs of compo" ...
Whatever happened to Cormac (sp?)
