Concreting path just to front of house, need someone fit who can barrow concrete & do some initial leveling in form & I will do final finishing.

Hoping truck can at least back up to where car is or further. Its less than 1 cubic meter 13 linear meters x 800 wide. Ideally all concrete is barrowed in half hour or have to pay penalty for truck, so very busy half hour. Ill ask for 3 hours of your time & if its longer I will pay you more. Tuesday 12th depending on weather?. Bonus if you have some concrete experience. Didnt realise previous contacts & task would be deleted yesterday while still in negotiation, any previous replys I still am interested but cannot get your details
