Forgive my thickness on this but basically in one corner of my patio I have about 3 half slabs missing and then another bit thats a small square shape.

I do have some spare slabs but these would need cutting to size.

Can i just mix up some concrete and put that in place of the slabs or am I talking rubish ??

I just want to be able to move my table and chairs into the corner and if I wait for my dad to come over and cut and lay the slabs i'll be an oap.

Yes you can - but it will eventually break up and come out in bits after a few frosty winters but it wil do for now.

I suggest you go and get a mixed bag of cement and aggregate from a DIY place and mix it up yourself. I think B&Q do it but the bags are quiet heavy to lift.

Thanks, glad to know I wasn't talking complete nonsense.

All I need to do now is find someone to take me to get the stuff.

Actually if I ring my dad and ask him to get the stuff he might actually come and lay the slabs then instead lol.
