SB..i asked you earlier if you had got any work done today...i took it you were having a go at the decking...
No kiddo I have removed the Decking. Today I brought down One and a half tons of sand from the front to the back. Which was very wet so it was very heavy. I am now ready to lay down 600 block paving Blocks. By then my knees will be totally destroyed my ankle will be totally knackered. Ten years ago I would have found this hard work. This will be the last heavy job of this size that this kid will take on. I'll be glad to go back to work for a rest.

Heres an excuse not to do any work today, you can't lay blocks on wet sand. You wil have to cover it over and wait a couple of days until it dries up a bit.
Had a nice lunch in The Scales pub and went to see the veg....very interesting.Off to Morrisons and then to a local art display which was a load of pretentious twaddle IMHP.
Had a good play with our Grandson we rolled on the grass and Grandad got very tired playing chase.......watched an old episode of Upstairs Downstairs and now ready for bed LOL
