Default Mortar is the natural enemy of pipes

Old age, cunning, and simple machines will win out. Every
time.

I do know what you mean about weights getting heavier. A
neighbour was
getting rid of paving slabs to reconfigure their backyard.
Our houses were
built at the same time by the same builder. The slabs are in
the same
condition as ours and my wife wanted to extend the patio.
Got our elder kid
to help me lift some to the front garden which I freely
admit challenged me.
I asked the younger lad (23) to get them into the yard, he's
keen on phyical
fitness and part of his business. To date there's one that
he has not
managed to move.

I'm guessing that I will have to shift that one!.
