Prob best to solve the boggy problem first with some kind of land drainage and remember when laying the slabs full bed of mortar no spots you know how it upsets Toni

Such a helpful title for this topic! It gives you a real sense of what the problem involves!

Ever thought about taking a look at the main website, Bluffer? It's a long shot, admittedly, but there's a gost of a whiff of an outside chance that there might just be some information regading sub-bases and patios on there. :p
