one good thing to have is a £10 tesco toasted sandwich maker, as long as you've got power on site you can have a hot lunch now its getting cold. i just take ham and cheese few minutes in there way better on a cold day and keeps me away from the chippy

I've got plans afoot and interested people already in a venture to make some money from my quadcopter, plus you get one job from it and its worth it.

hi mick
depends on size that one cost £3k+VAT we have had them up to 8k on bigger houses
4 days to put up and 2 days to drop for 2 blokes

Hi colm yes they are using spacers,the setts look big old units around 150 deep ,the polish lads fair play are doing a neat enough job
the stuff they are laying them on looked like some kind of cement/resin out of tubs,couldnt make out the tubs name though
I asked him what he thought of the setts and he said
"chinese sheet"
LOL
they looked ok though

Facebook updated with a teg driveway. https://m.facebook.com/?_rdr#!/Sampaving?ref=bookmark
I tried pasting the link off my phone. If it don't work use the website link below and use the facebook icon.
I'd post pictures direct to this page but I still haven't worked out how to. I'm useless with technology.
