It was in the trash can which is the correct place for it. I was aking for advice and didnt want to spam posts relating to Chris Moyles and radio 2.

Why was it locked without a polite pm giving an explanation as to what was wrong with it. Another case of Eliteism me thinks.

If anyone does know what the correct ratio of cement to building sand should be, I would be gratful.

Thanks.

Probably to do with the fact you were boasting about ripping off the taxpayer (again).

Whilst I had said fair play for playing the system, it does get rather tiresome having your nose rubbed in it, particularly when spending a day at work. I'm sure you won't be declaring to the authorities your fifty quid of earnings either, will you?

Anyway:

Should answer some questions.

Ok, first of all, 'Furious', you posted it in General, not trash, and second, you're asking members of a Chris Moyles website about how to make cement when a simple google search would probably suffice.

Ok, thanks for that Console, my apologies for posting it in General. I was pistaken in my previous post. I just thought it would be a nice little topic for us to dicuss as obvioulsy some of us do know how to mix cement, and some of us dont. Google is too easy. I could go the whole hog and get a government paid for course in brick laying, but as its been pointed out, tax payers pay enough towards keeping freeloaders in money.

Why are you championing Google above other search engines in this instance? I didn't think this forum (which I pay for as a licence fee customer) was to be used to promote individual brands above others.

Could you please revise you post to point out that other search engines are available and equally adequate.

Thanks in advance,

Simple, Google is my search engine of preference and the one I defaultly use.

The forum isn't being payed for by 'licence fee' money, it's being paid for by Chris Harris, and as such it has no such guidlines on product placement.

No, because the rest are crap.

You make a series of valid points which I agree with. I retract all of them and will now go and masturbate with my sandpaper gloves on to punish myself

I would leave the sugar if you can, causes real problems with ants!

For info... 3 parts builders sand, 1 cement. Beforehand, mix plastersizer with water at a ratio of 20-1 then add to the mixer. Then add sand, and then cement. Mix until of a good consistency then build the wall.

See, none of you mentioned plastersizer....
