nice work and I love the kerb detail on the first photo, who taught you how to do that ?

NOTE TO SELF
don't bother buying kerbs any more there is a much easier quicker and cheaper way ???

what dust suppression did you use on your grinder ?

I agree nice fence

We have blue bins round 'ere.

They're for empty bottles of Blue Curacao.

Us Tamesiders get through gallons of the stuff.

We have blue in Sheffield used to be for paper but now that's in a box, blue for glass plastic tetra pack stuff. Black for household waste what's brown?

Brown is garden waste.

Nice fence, shame about the paving. Ironic given your username.

1st pic, no kerb?!

2nd pic in, the small cut in from the soldier course at bottom of photo looks wrong. I would have cut a little bit off a few blocks to blend it in better.

4th pic, mitre the corner, block paving not square.

Last pic, no mitre, having soldier course looks rubbish in such a narrow area.

Fantastic job, not seen a fence constructed so well . Could you not have given a price to replace the paving, to give it that all round professional finish?

p.s which bin is Jeremy Beadle hiding in...

erm ??? :O

That fence is rather good, apparently brown is glass and plastics blue for paper card on the bins.

Have you installed the paving or just jet washed it? It looks like its just been washed? sort of...
