I was just taking a bit of a guess because I stay away from it, I might have to have a go for £150 m2
-
It depends what look you want, if you want a very modern, high end look then my opinion is nothing looks as good as porcelain if you want traditional I’d go reclaimed, things like Yorkshire stone, if you want just a nice average patio I’d go for natural stone, like Indian sandstone
-
That’s the reason I won’t do it, if you have an edge slightly up it stands out a mile and the whole job looks sh*te, I’ve done polished sandstone before and that was a nightmare, the customer chose and hates it now, because it’s slippy when wet and like a 150m2 ice rink when it cold, when done right, like in them pictures, porcelain looks amazing, I just don’t think I’m good enough to put it down like that
-
Going off 50m2 I’d say between 4/5k, you want to be looking at between £80 to £100 per m2 supplied and laid, but again it all depends on the prep
-
It’s hard to give a price without knowing what’s going down and what prep needs to be done, looking at the measurements, rounding it off to 200m2 in porcelain ( which I won’t do ) I’d say supply and lay around £16k between 4/5k of that would labour
-
I must of been channeling ditch, because I also went stew tonight, chicken, leek, turnip, carrot and spuds, with the leftover tender stem
-
I give up with this clown, told him the wooden stairs needed to come out and they were rotten ( this is going to be an air B&B ) he then said don’t do anything until he comes down, came down and he wants them taking out carefully because he’s going to have them repaired, they are fu*ked, so only got one row down, I thought I’m not volunteering to do the stairs and I’m billing him for a full day as well
-
Fishcakes tonight, I took Mitres advice and made a little parsley and white wine sauce just to keep things moist
-
These have got a proper cow shed piss smell about them, fu*k knows how long they will smell like this, they have been in the crates for 12 months outside, when you run the stihl saw through them they smell like hot piss
-
Well, I thought theses were horrible when I got here this morning, now they are starting to go down they suit the courtyard, they must of been reclaimed from a farm because the smell like they have been in a cow shed for the past 100 years
-
Got here this morning as the paving has arrived, completely not what they said it was, reclaimed and all different sizes, not new and all the same size and now wants it pointing not resin, good job this is on a day rate
-
No, just a cheap rolled joint from Asda
-
Slow cooker or in a pot in a low oven, with stock, thyme, tomato and owt else you want to chuck into it for the gravy, that fat will go into the gravy
-
Pot roast beef, seen as I didn’t get one yesterday, gravy was lovely
-
I think this lads a bit of a dark horse, not really cooking much and now he’s making his own ice cream
-
It’s a chunk of beef that’s been in a pot getting to know a load of veg for the past 2 hours
-
Going to be some good gravy from this
-
Na, I just left the shell on
-
Knackered tonight because I’ve been grafting all day, Mrs went to her mams to be fed, so I did myself roasted pepper and chorizo spaghetti with an egg on top it was bloody lovely
-
Ooooow, minty peas love it
-
Busy day today, got everything finished off at the shoot, got two feed shelters up in two of the drives, a few of the sheets were different sizes, which didn’t matter but my OCD kicked in and I had to go and cut them so they were all the same size, could of done with a hand today from the members, but no, doing on my own as usual
-
For Mrs Stav tonight, cod in panko breadcrumbs with garlic and thyme mini roast spuds, tender stem and lemon and black pepper mayo for Mr Stav, I went for venison madras, it was bloody hot but very nice
-
Lovely river the swale, I used to do a bit of pike fishing around Topcliffe, there some good chub in there
-
I made a Kiev type thing tonight, chicken breast stuffed with mushroom, garlic, thyme butter, in panko breadcrumbs, with new spuds and tender stem
-
I say yes to everything on that plate, but put the egg on top of the gammon and some ice cream with that pineapple
