I am thinking over the pros and cons of concrete versus
concrete slabs* on mortar.

The sub base is loose gravel over MOT type 1 thats been down
16 years.* I can use the loose gravel to make concrete with.
Obviously with sand* as well


Area is 3m x 1.8m

Seems to come aout around £120 no matter which way I look -
anyone got* hard info?
*I've got some 2" council type paving slabs going spare but you
will have* to fetch:-)* (50 miles)

migt be worth it, at that...enough?

32. I can probably find a use for any leftover. You know they
weigh about 40kg each!

I need 10 if they are 600 x 900.

400 kg.

I think the freelander would just about take that.

It's probably a bit over the top, but its not a long way.


Four people in a five seater car and luggage could easily be more
than that and even a fiat 500 can cope with that.
No wonder JLR can't sell their cars.

That weight is not all at one end of the car normally though, but
yes, I'm sure a Freelander would take it.

It is slightly obetr its rated limit, but I am sure it would take it

My car can do over 700kg so the LR is poor.


Here to Kentford is 1 hour. 2 trips!
