    Here in Dublin IRELAND me and another pump Guy did about 150 Foot of walkways for a friend of his from Hopper's of concrete over the past year anytime we are near his place we let him know when we are in his area and he brakes out a bit of the old 50+ year old stuff and we pour a Hopper full and it makes our lives easier not having to drive almost an hour in traffic back to the yard to washout and we are helping a friend out aswel
