size is fine for me
we get either pink or purple type 1 ,i just like it to have some fines
any plans for drainage?
and i know it seems easier to tip the sand but i prefer to have it tipped on the road then barrowed in to levels
me and my mate did a drive years ago and we over ordered on the sand,it was a bugger moving the excess as we ordered 5M instead of 5t

Linear Drainage just offset from house going into aquacell soakaway.
We'll use a good portion of the sand at the entrance, by the time we pave to it the amount left will finish the main area and the rest will be used down the side path. It can be a bugger if over ordered but I hate paying for the bagged stuff, when it says a minimum of 850kg on the label I reckon you don't get much more than that.
Hopefully by the end of play today it will all be ready for laying on Monday. Bit of edging to set and lawn to be turfed. I like to get all the bits and pieces out the way so we have a clear run on the paving.
the factory we'll be at for a few months, shes a big girl. 67 metres long and each span is 50m so 100m wide,
first job two sunk concrete tanks, excavation will be 4.2 long, 3m wide and 2m deep, stuck between embankment and b
uilding. had to cut out a pallisade fencing panel and its a bugger of a job.

250 ton press weighing 28 tons being lifted onto our 2.4m deep pit and 4 30mmx600mm hold down bolts, fitted perfectly phew

Kubota are like the original mini diggers to me. Seemed to go off the boil for sometime as other makes improved on them.
Must be impressing again if you are willing to go all out on them.
Not laid by me (obv!) but a job I've just finished project managing. I'll let the installer reveal themselves if they wish.
Reclaimed Penmaenmawr blues for the edge courses with reclaimed Mountsorrel pinks for the body and all pitch jointed for that traditional look.
The blues are near perfect, lovely cubes with clean faces, but the pinks, bought by the customer and from a different supplier based in Preston (saying no more), are a right set of mongrels and the mystery installer spent at least a day sorting them into something vaguely resembling courses.
