Re. Decking advice.



Thank you one and all for allowing me to use this Newsgroup.



However we seemed to have got away from the issue.

I was seeking advice on Hardwood v. Redwood not Decking v. alternative.



Would you believe I have just taken procession of a house which has two
wooden sheds -(shudder everyone) - at the bottom of the garden.

The 6 x 8 area between them is soil, quite muddy right now . What to do ?

At the top of the garden we have a large paving patio which is very sad -
covered in algae and uneven. When wet looks sad, when dry looks sad.

Only slippery when wet would you believe.





Robert,



You remind me of someone who attends a debate or discussion but only hears
what supports his particular point and then shouts " Seeeee I told you
sooooooooooooh"

I promise never again to go on the pier at W-s-M. (or to N.Z. Eh? PK).

National Trust also lives dangerously.

Think someone mentioned that the report may have referred to
laminated/wooden floors indoors. Too much polish can also be very slippery
also bananas and marble.

Did you know that margarine is bad for you, so to butter, sugar, too much
s*x makes your eyes go funny and shortens (or is it extends ?) your life by
20 minutes.

Maybe I should stay in bed.



Thanks for your advice but not relevant.





Mike,



Yuk is the most juvenile of words.

So sorry that blue fences and T.V. upset you .

Remind me to give you a call when I next change my car - ref. model and
colour.





Franz.



What should I use in my particular case ?. - to be with it that is ? or
without it ?





Brian Watson.



Many thanks your tip - more positive input than the other old ****s





Kenty:-



Many thanks your input reassuring and love the point about matter of choice







Sorry to have troubled you all- still none the wiser ?



Have a Nice Day

Lay a clinker, gravel or stone path between them and use the remainder as a
bed for gardening in?

At the top of the garden we have a large paving patio which is very sad -
covered in algae and uneven. When wet looks sad, when dry looks sad.
Only slippery when wet would you believe.

The algae are not difficult to remove and it ought not to be impossible to
relay the paving stones. You will end up with something more permanent and
more fitting for a garden than an alfresco dance floor.

Len,
Try not to take it too personally,but I know were you are coming from!
You get a few who are too opinionated & like to tell you what they
dislike,which is of no use whatsoever.By the end of the thread the original
question still hasn't been answered.They should keep there traps shut if
they cannot answer the question.

Example -Decking? A five minute fad and fashion to be linked with blue
fences and TV.
yuk :-(

Why? I don't know about the rest of the groups this is cross posted to,
but uk.rec.gardening is a discussion group. There's nothing in the
charter to say we *will* answer the question and *nothing but* the
question. If you cross post into urg, you will get discussion. Or not.
Depends how interested the urglers who read the question are.
