The spacing underneath looks good on yours. I wish that the one I am working on was like it 😔 Good luck with it 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just doing the last bit but whoever did it first time must have run out of postcrete because two of the supports in the ground had none in 🙄🙄🙄🙄 9 minutes ago, JKD said: It was probably all that hardcore stopping the boards sagging and breaking 🤭😂 Some nice paviors under there 👌 👍 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not wrong but there was no way I was shifting all the carp underneath and putting new supports in. Way above my pay grade 😉🤣. As a side issue my daughter asked me what I wanted for doing it and I said "nowt" but she wants to buy me something. Sooner than her buy something I don't want/need I said "Pard 007" she said is that all when I told her the price. So night time ratting and rabbits with the air rifle then 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
