I've been tinkering with this since the winter when a few people suggested it - I've now got the power to include a polling facility in the pavingexpert website. Good, eh? :)

So: what should we poll? I have a few ideas lined up, such as fave block paving manufacturer and best BM, but are there any 'polls' you'd like to see?

So as well as tool suppliers, you could also rate hire companies - which ones are cheaper for hiring 'x', for example.

Although HSS are generally one of the most common hire companies, I believe they're also one of the most expensive - would be interesting to see how people rate them for the equipment - is more expensive better than other nationwide companies such as Hire Station?

How about:

"Which is the best flag laying method:

1. Five spot mortaring?
2. Semi dry bedding mix?"

Er, that's it ;)

Sorry, Boss.
I suppose that means I'm back making tea again, does it? Or is there an even lowlier position on site? :)
