Something has to be done about the drive (urgently)

I know, I know, most people are lazy and hire driveway contractors who show up in a clapped out van, rip you off, case the joint and come back really late one night 8 months later to steal your flat screen TV.  But not us!  We drive to B & Q, buy bags of tarmac, which cause the car to ride a little low sparking the roadway with the exhaust pipe, then pound the crap on ourselves.  8 months later we go out in the dead of night and steal a flat screen from somebody with a clapped out van in their driveway.  

And now to the back terrace also in dire need of repair.....
