[QUOTE="therower, post: 2107234, member: 47983"] Well i thought my slab laying/ patio exploits had finished after I completed our garden at the new bungalow we moved into this time last year. Oh no . Fast forward a few months and my wonderful daughter advises me that her hubby is going to lay a patio. I’m under strict orders not to get involved as he is adamant he knows what he is doing. This all sounds great to me. A chat a few weeks back and it transpired all was not rosy in the garden. ( basically he hasn’t got a clue how to prepare a patio let alone lay one ). Fast forward to today. I managed to get a half decent level to the garden after it had been dug out a little to much two weeks ago. Got 2/3 of the slabs down this afternoon. Aching like ....a 55 yr old T1 should ache......but really happy. 1. I can still do it. 2. The grandkids had great fun helping me mix and were both really useful when I needed something passing. 3. When the “ other “ grandparents turned up they kinda got ignored in preference of me. RESULT :) 4. I’ve only needed 2 bolus injections today. Ham and tomato cob didn’t need a bolus.:) Gonna do the rest tomorrow, weather permitting. Aching now but recalling kids trying to mix compo is keeping smiling and pain freeish. Blood sugars throughout the day? Don’t GAS when I have this much fun.;) [/QUOTE]
