FYI a quick and chemical free method of weed killing is boiling water or steam.
Alternatively, before I grouted our tiles I used to embrace the weeds in the cracks and mow them to stop them getting too high.

I'm thinking maybe I should just put ground cover plants that outgrow the weeds and retile loose around them. Tiled area is really just for the table for the 5 days of sun we get here a year.
I usually pull them out but dandelion plus deep roots plus tiles = lol no I'm staying. Boiling water sounds good might try it :)
And the neighbours brambles of course keep coming up on our end. Our Bosch battery handsaw is good for cutting the roots.

Tx Colin & Hugo! I guess digging the lot up, installing drainage and putting the stones back is what I will have to do.
So many weeds between the cracks too I don't like tiles for that reason. Perhaps I should lay a screed.
