Im really pleased with this little job, I had some Marshall's Jade green slate lying around for ages, only 2 sizes. This lady had saved for ages to get this little 15m2 patio done and could only afford a budget job but I did this and she was chuffed. I even smashed up the last few flags and tumbled the Chipping's in the mixer to fill the gravel strip Image

I thought that was not suitable for use on a drive due to its thickness
