Overall a nice looking wall.

Bond and perps a bit scrappy in places though.

I wish anyone I ever employed was as fussy as you. :lol:

I would be 100% happy with that job and would tip the builder

That is why I said it was a nice looking wall. Overall it is.

Perps should be vertical and not off line by as much.

Sometimes you have to lose the bond, but just not next to a feature where it hits you right in the face.

quite well put Roc, the laymen & customers don't see things like this as theyre oblivious to it. & believe me I wasn't too happy about it myself, but work is hard come by nowadays with so many tossers out there that will do a real shabby job for a few quid less. it was a tight price to start with, but after all it turned out nice enough as you say! :wink:

its also interesting to know that a double bullnose blue can cost as much as £3.25 each unless you do your homework! :pukeleft:
What would you rather bee or a wasp!
