ANOTHER JOB DONE !

One of the outstanding jobs in our garden was to put some sort of tile or paving under the Lychgate, to finish it off.
Well the years have gone by, on the odd occasions it's been mentioned and then forgotten again.

Then last year Paul drew up a graph of what sized paving would be needed to fit and again it went by the wayside.

Then earlier this year we bought three paving slabs to make the front step from, because we fell in love with the look of one of them!
Of course it turned out to be totally the wrong colour! So we put them to one side and went and bought what we intended in the first place.

Then about a month back I suddenly thought where we could use them.. as the floor to the Lychgate! It meant we'd need a few more, so a pattern was worked out.

Last weekend Paul purchased the extra pieces we'd need and today he did the job!

Swept out and ready for the job.

Now waiting for the cement to go off slightly then it can be swept to remove any bits of cement on the paving.

So now leaving it to harden off, then it can be swept over. Then all that's left is the gates! but who know when they'll get done... there's a folly to be built!!
