Hi All

Been laying 600 x 600 slabs all day, absolutely knackered.

Just realised why - those 600 x 600 slabs weigh a lot more than the old
24" x 24" ones used to and the 25 kilo bags of mortar are much heavier
than the old 56 lb bags where.

Not to mention the ground is now further away than it used to be.

I blame the metric system.

I blame the parents.
