Yes tony poured concrete on day 2. I tend to go up a gear when I'm on price because I normally price it wrong so have to cain it to earn some decent money. It normally works out alright in the end.

I'm still using photobucket.com.
It's fairly dry sandy soil but could turn messy. It was going to be all dug out and stoned up, but they decided they wanted grass leaving. The weather is supposed to good for a few days. Got to stone up tomorrow then concrete Friday.

I haven't got any pictures of today, but I reckoned I layed about 350 bricks by dinner time, then got rained off.
I could do with spending a couple of weeks with a time served brickie like your self tone. I'm all self taught in everything I do.as I grew up older guys weren't free with much advice, guidance, information, help,. I'm not talking about the building game, I started as a farm labourer .
