    I’d like to buy a corner of the field beside Diarmud Gavin and put a stack of silage bales beside his outback shed.

    I'm a bit over the polished concrete, especially one with stones in it. It reminds me s bit to much of hospital/school floor tiles that were popular in seventies where I come from.

    Anyway the show is pretty boring. This should be one episode.

    Terrazo lady managed the new Royal College of Surgeons building. I remember Dermot doing a programme about it.
    Not a fan of Diarmuid's overgrown garden but I'm glad to see gardeners move away from the gravel and grasses look that they all went for a few years back.

    The drawings are like something out of Wind In The Willows rather than plans a builder could work from.

    He's not exactly a walking advertisement for his business, is he?

    "It's my fault, I've messed up big time, it's a stupid mistake."

    My stepdad worked in stonework restoration for 30 years and I remember him getting a swearing fit when he had to quote terrazzo repairs. He did dozens of it and would gladly outlaw it, he's so sick of it.
