Hi Tony,

Not necessarily in my view. Hit a paving slab of uniform thickness and i dare say you'll end up with a myriad of bits and pieces; some big, some not so. And if you'd deliberately set out to get big bits -

- you'd clear all the small stuff away to get to it ....

*can I come out yet?*


Just for info - one of the joys of debate is finding new stuff - I came across this on one of my recent searches:

http://www.louistalboys.com/st[...]s/FYFIELDDOWNLEAFLET(3376).pdf

It's an English Nature leaflet from 2003. Pretty - and informative. Sadly, the site it came from uses Phrase 154 (Sykes-Manchurian Variation) in the "Justyouwaituntil2012" Big Book of Must-Use Phrases:

"....refreshing analysis of the evidence uncovers the shocking truth...."

But don't let that put you off!

Peace

Pilgrim
