Oh I did that as well zizu. The blokes name was Jeff. Lives on a deserted hebrides island with his family now looking after it for its rich owners.

We once built a massive water feature out of natural material, ie massive rocks(40 tonne, lifted and barrowed 50 metres a time from the front to the rear of a mansion belonging to Chay Blythe)

Hard hard work that game, very rewarding though when you see the finished article.

I left there to go down London actually. All rippled and penge...been a long 14 years...

Our worst / hardest jobs involved oily , railway sleepers .. heavy and slippery to move around . I used to hate it when we turned up to a job and there were 50 or more of the damn things on the road side as they all had to be carried through to the back garden … lousy start to the day !

Apologies to all for going off topic somewhat
