Thanks to everyone who gave me help and advice over the past few months

Maybe not perfect from a professionals standpoint but happy to have got this over the line

What did you joint it with in the end? Doesn’t look like S&C

Now all you have to do is sort out that shed overhang .....

How do I sort that without taking it apart?

Sand and cement with some black mortar tone to make it darker grey

Out of curiosity, what's happening with those other slabs?

You mean the ones that went in the skip?

Neat and compact.

It would drive you nuts trying to do a larger patio. There is a greater chance for the joints to wander on bigger jobs. Avoid cross roads though, if you ever do another one. Always 'T' junctions.

No the ones that are still there. Why?

I’m confused. I’m not sure what you mean? The slabs are on a mortar bed?

If you mean the pile of slabs in the first pic… I got rid of them because I have no storage and won’t need them in the future

Probably a right of way at the back of a row of terraced?

He means the skanky ones you left on this side of the aco I think.

Ah I get it… I live in a row of terraced houses and it’s a path that runs across the back of all of the houses so would look stupid if I change my section

Well when you look out of your window at your brand new yard, you might want to see something better than those crappy old slabs and random concrete patches. Even just relaying and tidying it up would be better. You could even relay and get then to harmonise with the new slabs. It just looks so random as it is.
