Hi Mark, we used a pump in California when we mixed our own screed, and Texas, but at home we always got readymix with 12 hour retarder. we used mostly a bobcat to move the screed, or sometimes a double wheeled pram (barrow) that carried half a ton pushed by Tony Cullens son Adrian, both legends in their own lunchtime.

The Americans allways seemed one step ahead of us with tools....

Thats it Neale, I can't find a video anywhere, it seems the one I put on plays on my lap top but no one else can see it.

As Mike (mz30) says they were hard work, but the team we had were world beaters.

Mike I remember us working past midnight many times, as you say some hard times, but the job was carried out by some hard men

Yeah phil some long,long days I was only a kid then ,think I was 20 last time I worked with you and the lads, set me up to work hard over the years though, but now as I have just turned 40 am gutted if I work past 4 o'clock, happy doing a mixture of commercial ,domestic etc and getting a regular wage ,I done the money chasing when I was younger so leave that to the younger guys now.

There's a strange buzz once working past midnight. When we were working away at a big floor and had two days left my boss would have regularly said "We will just work on tonight to finish it". 8am in the morning til - 4.30am the next morning many times to get a job finished. Back home for 7am and you had the rest of the day off if you were lucky :lol:
