the nutty thing is I worked on those halls of residence about 16 years ago
the current trend seems to be pull down fairly new building
that big grab yoke must be 20 m high ,pulling roof trusses off like they were spiders legs
all the hardcore is being crushed on site
all for luton polytechnic..... ow sorry i mean university of bedfordshire
if any of your offspring ever mention going to uni in luton,just give them a service revolver and a bottle of scotch
its the only decent option they have

Pergola wouldn't be good in the middle of that garden, it would end up right in front of the conservatory. Best either off centre creating a walkway to a separate garden or stick it in the corner to make a seated area.

A Couple of pics of a driveway we completed last week, blocks are Brett alpha Jumper blocks 280x210 making a nice chunky herringbone pattern, we had a reclaimed sett border as the client had a load he wanted to throw out!

The bullnosed stone steps were a right ball ache, I had them cut at 1350x600 and chipped the first one I tried to lay! £100 down before I start.
