Default Wafty shed base

They want a metal shed erected on top, but there is no way thats going to
work until the base is sorted.

Initial thoughts are to erect level formwork & top the base with a little
more concrete.

Is it going to bond OK to the exciting base, especially where it
'feathers'.? Would PVA help?

A good concrete to concrete joint should be scabbled (mechanically
roughened) - but for this application - how about just laying a course
of bricks?
