Just remember to get 'Sharp Sand' not Builders Sand
I explained to the man at the desk that it for levelling the ground for a base for a large garden cupboard/small shed. What is the difference then between sharp sand and builder's sand? Is bulders' sand for mixing to make cement that is used to build walls?

Yep, builders sand is very even in texture for making Mortar whereas 'Sharp' sand has small pebbles/stones in it so it will compact better and be more stable over time.

Mild, vaguely sunny and a touch breezy here chez casa Reynard.
Have done a load of laundry this morning, plus cut up fruit for an orange and apple marmalade (it's a Marguerite Patten wartime recipe that's piqued my curiosity), booked an MOT test for the car, did some general puttering around and found time to work on my new writing project.
This afternoon I intend on making a pot of minestrone soup.

Lunch ride done. Old MTB with guards. What a surprise, riding through muddy puddles and not getting a face full !
On arrival home, I discovered MrsF had eaten the chicken soup I spied before I went out.

Went to get a haircut. They've shut down. So I'll continue to look scruffy.

Isn't that the 'required look' for most Academics ?
I'll let you off as you are Marketing, so I'd expect smart business attire.

Fully suited and booted in designer label sir; we have to reflect the brand. Except in this case it's the back corner of my wife's office.
