I am making a path around a lawn 9m in diameter. The path is 075m wide. I have (or am in the middle of ) put a concrete base down and am going to use 100mm X 100mm black limestone cobbles. Could anyone tell me
1. What should I lay them with? Should I use stone dust and if so what mix?
2. What pattern should I use or will the gap widening as it gets farther away from the center not show
3. Where is the cheapest place to get black limestone setts?

please send me a no obligation information pack NOW! for kwikkurb so i can drive around in a snazzy red uniform with everything colour coordinated in a snazzy carmine red!
and hopefully after many years of practise i can talk like the guy from the rugmaster advert on QVC
joking aside i am sure a few years back we had a regular poster who had a kerbing machine and there wasnt much call for it
