I was not taking the P, it genuinely looks pretty. And brick acid is something that would remove most things from brick.

Small update. Our front lawn has of late been looking more like Monet's water garden. So I've ordered some plum slate, and levelled the grass with sand, topped with some membrane.

Nice one John.
Our front is a car park. Our son, his wife and their three kids live with us but they are away on holiday but there cars have been left. The daughters caravan and one of her old cars are also "staying" with us.
As for the back, it still looks like a building site. When it is finished I'll stick a couple of photos on this section.

Cheers Ray.

Our back looks a bit like a breakers' yard, with the A2 I'm breaking. Stick some pics up of yours, it's always nice to see progress.

All the best. John.
