[Half a plot man]

I have the oppurtunity of some decent patio slabs, i would like to lay a few small paths through my plot. Question is how do you go about it? i assume that some weed fabric layed under the slabs would suffice?

flatten earth lay slab............it's all I do

For a veg garden I'd probably do as mum suggests.

However, if you want them to last or it's more than just a handful of slabs then you're best laying a decent sub-base, such as scalpings/type 1 m.o.t.

See here for lots of great advice (and a forum):

Whippersnapper I don`t think such a permanent job would be allowed on an allotment.
