Now having the patio up I thought that it would be a good idea to clean the bricks and also the pavers. Well as the photos show it was really dirty. It's surprising how much just a blast of water can get clean. Now I'll have to buy my own one and do a yearly spring clean.
I've run out of brenjal pickle so I have to make some more. Five kilograms of brenjals later and a few spices, a bit of cooking and presto - all done. The only prpoblem was that the pan was not big enough. Might have to get a bigger pan for next time and for the curries.

Pretty disgusting really. You
don't tend to notice.
