Mr R had the great idea last week of buying a cement mixer - apparently we will need it!! I did ask why we would need it only to realise that Mr R had actually also just bought a new ride on mower and therefore he needed somewhere to store it securely! So the bright yellow concrete mixer has come in handy as we spent most of this morning mixing cement, sand and hardcore and laid a base! Mr R studiously looked online before we embarked on mixing so we got it right but the first mix wasn't really sloppy enough! 2nd and 3rd mixes were much better and hey presto we have a base. Ok the base isn't really level but as this is our first attempt we don't care! Lets hope it sets and is strong enough to hold the new mower! (more about the mower when its delivered tomorrow!)
