Took a sabatical last week to sort a few small jobs out and got back onto this on Monday. Apologies for the picture quality just because I've bought a decent camera doesn't mean I'll have the sense to remember to take it to work.

Need to get it pointed but with the weather it'll either be slurried or 2 part resined. Hopefully get the kerbs and steps pointed tomorrow and make a start on the retainers and planters and archways.

I used to do a lot of work for designers but I don't anymore I got fed up carrying the can for budget overspends and they always complicate simple problems and feel the need to fill areas with pointless features that never get used. I do all my own stuff now and try and keep things simple that way the client can maximise it's usage. It's the republic thats shagged half of all the workforce up here are civil servants so they're keeping the country afloat.
