Looks well, think i would run a border across the front of that curve and avoided those off cuts to the left but great job for an amatuer

good point, was going to do that but to be honest lost the will to make anymore concrete bed at the edge, in retrospect should have done it, wasn't too sure on the 'in board cutting in' I did near that front edge.

160x 160 blocks were a bit fiddly to cut and was worried about the wacker going over them at the edge course, particarly as I knocked a couple of the edges when I hired the digger and had to reset the edges back in cement.

Digged down over two feet as the ground was so soft and sandy, also laid membrane to sperate mot from sub course.
