    They make 20kg cement bags? :confused: :eek: Never, ever seen them up here.

    I'll get her to try for a 40kg load in the Kenwood, may just work
    Which frees up the mixer for pancakes

    We don't have a mixmaster but we do have a Kenwood Chef which I (wrongfully) assumed was what she meant.
    SWMBO is outside for about 1/2 an hour feeding horses then bursts in, 'where is it' .......I dutifully point at the kitchen bench, 'how can I concrete the path with that?'.
    Oh woe am I, I should have realised that she meant set up the concrete mixer.
    Why am I so stupid as not to realise that this was what she meant
    Ian, perhaps this explains the scones that are as hard as concrete!

    I just ordered a bag of 'cement' at about $55 for the 25kg.

    Well, it is good for about 1800 degrees...

    I wish the bags were 25kg when I was working in a hardware shop. Dragging them from the back to the front wasn't exactly enjoyable.

    I kinda wondered what some people driving Jags and Mercs were thinking about when buying concrete though...
