I knew today would not be routine. First of all I had to buy
sand and gravel before setting about work on the patio. Instead of routinely putting
down six full-size paving slabs, I shaped pieces and fitted them into nooks and
crannies.
This sort of work is very fiddly. Spaces have to be measured
carefully and allowances made for mortar between adjacent slabs. Getting the
mortar into some of the crevices was a bit tricky. Hence, I spent most of the
day fiddling around.
Perhaps tomorrow will be more straightforward and I’ll be
able to lay six more full-size paving stones.

Hello Bill, youre making a lovely job of it. It must be assuming the labour of Hercules, in the Stygian stables....
