Curing times - Rapid set mortars

[mickavalon]

Does anybody have any experience or info on fast cure cementious products. We've built a Swimming Pool, lined it with epdm and now need to construct Blockwork steps to dress with Granite treads and Risers. I need the Mortar for the Blockwork to cure pretty quick, or we can't fill the Pool for 8-12 weeks, depending upon normal Mortar cure times, dependant on density of and aggregates used of course.
I'm contacting Instarmac Today, but just wonderd if anyone has a slant on this issue?

The Designer has specified F@#k all LLL mate, she's designed and ran, so to speak. I need to set conc blocks onto EPDM liner, but need it to cure quick, so I'm going to source a Epoxy to do it possibly. Same with the Granite Copings, with maybe a Mesh system to bind all together. Cost is all important though, I don't need it to go thru the roof. I will attempt to load some photos to show.

I suppose being a new man you chipped your nail giles?
on the stag last week , we got a knock from one of the lads from st albans (posh desk jockey type)
"can anyone lend me some moisturiser?"
sadly we only had bacardi, vodka, and stella.
the lads from leeds all peed in a pint glass and their groom to be drunk it for £100
proper northerners,he even offered to do a pint of vomit for £200 :O

Haha new man my arse

In my rugby days if you got man of the match you got a pint, a chair to stand on and the rest of the club chanting get it down you Zulu warrior, get it down you Zulu chief chief chief chief.... Till finished. Was my party piece 2 pints of bitter in 6 seconds no wonder I was a 19st monster hehe.

But some of the backs would Throw it up into the pint glass and the chant would continue till it had gone as well

We had a flanker on a coach trip back from cockermouth in Cumbria sample everyone's piss and give opinions in an oz Clark wine style hehe.

We had Geoff probin, famous English prop talknat our club and he recalled a story how they'd played a trick on a fellow front rower emptying their complementary Brut after shave and filling it with water necked it in front of the guy who not to loose face did the same and spent the night in a&e having his stomach pumped lol the good old days haha

Thought i'd get nice hot coffee for the long journey. pulled in at Hounslow put a score of deisal in ( to dear there ) then went to atm got card out and tiny corner broke off, so shall i, or not. Thought it would be ok it's only a tiny corner......Aaarrrrrggggghhhhhh!!! F****** friday the 13th, After an hour of crying, screaming and punching myself , i suddenly remembered my case £20 but....where is it hidden ??? after what seemed like another hour i found it the last place you'd expect, in me f****** wallet :p
