Default Postcrete - whether to mix in agrigate or not?

Hi all,

I use postcrete for setting in posts etc. My own feeling is that it
would be stronger if I mixed in some gravel (ballast). I've tried it
and it works fine - goes off almost as quickly, but I don't know if
this is strengthening it or not. Anybody know if this is worth doing
or not.


Not having a go here, but I wouldn't back your gut feeling against the
knowledge & experience of Lafarge/Blue Circle & Hanson Aggregates. If it
needed it, they would put it in.
