New slabs on old drymix ?

[Rubberball]

Hi guys (and girls to be politically correct), The girlfriend doesn't like the slabs we currently have as our patio in the back garden and wants to get new ones for the upcoming summer. The ground is pefectly level and the slabs are fine too. it's just she wants new ones.
Can i lift the old ones and put some new ones straight on top of the old drymix that is already down ?.
thanks in advance Paul

if you want them wobbling and rocking then yes. if you want it done properly then no

THe old dry mix, will need replacing, I think is what Thermo means.
