Lovely stuff buddy. I've never seen substrate of sand and cement mixed and dampened before. So no need for 100mm of compacted hardcore in all situations? Looking forward to the next part!

I’m afraid this won’t last 12 months. You don’t ever put “spots of mortar” under the slab, always a full bed, I know I sound negative but it’s not the correct way.

I have done plenty of patios this way including my own 10 years ago which is still standing now , using blobs of mortar helps bed the slab easier and once the slab is compressed onto the blobs it pretty much fills the area of the slab especially on a slab this size, there certainly would not be any area of the slab that could crack due to not enough mortar but will agree that on bigger slabs then a full bed is needed but we all have our own ways of laying slabs. thanks for your comment.
