First Driveway of my new venture working on my own, I got a good guy in with the 1.5t machine with a pecker then got a couple of the young 17year old lads I play rugby with to do some heavy lifting. worked out well. It was ment to be Plaspave Premia 60 but when jewsons set off to pick them up for me Plas said they hadnt made any and it would be a 2 week wait so its cost me £500 of my profit to upgrade to Sorrento! Clients happy anyway and got a couple of leads from it already.

Yep nothing fancy just a single aquacell in a planted border. The SUDS Drainage to the pavement is a bit of a token jesture for me, not many lads round our way bother and Ive never seen anyone enforece it.

I tried through the Merchants and the Plas rep directly, but no joy. As it was my first job in my new guise I just wanted to get it done, otherwise I would have left the client using the drive stoned up and fought them.

The unusual connection in image 2 (not that unusual sadly) is known in the trade as the `plop and drop`:)
