    Have you anyone who could help you with the patio? It's hard work if you're arthritic and trying to sort something like that  :)

    You could just use a weedkiller for the patio weeds then cover the slabs with gravel, instant update, shouldn't be too expensive but you may need someone to lift the gravel bags for you. Gravel is also a good burglar deterrent!

    Good luck.

    Please don't put gravel over slabs!  Lethal  :#

    I was having a good day with my hands yesterday (not so good today punishment I guess I will send pics of the patio. It's come up a lot better. But still a way to go. Xx

    @Fairygirl, I'm sorry, I'm confused - why should gravel over slabs be lethal?
