Hello All,
Thanks for all the useful info on this site.
I have just completed my first ever drive with blocks using help from this site, the drive is 120 feet long with a 30 foot square area off to one side.
The photos should be on Photo bucket at the link below:

Well, they are going to do it sometime.
So far I have had seven people ask if I can do their drives etc., do I really want a change of career I ask myself, it's a bit different from my usual day job writing manuals, interesting project though and I learned a great deal from everybody here.
ps there is another set of photos with the drive ones called Sheen House - this is a tile replacement job I saw in Sheen recently - just glad they are'nt doing mine - go have a look! :(
