Lesson learned!!! Do not try and move heavy garden furniture.

The result, a broken £3,000 granite stone table, from lifting it, the table top just broke in two because of the weight in the middle. I didn't realise it wasn't attached to the base and the top lifted off.

Customer was fine, going through the Insurance, so hopefully just a £250 excess to pay

ouch ! Thank goodness for insurance.
   Bit unusual for granite to break under its own weight. I used to be a monumental stone Mason years ago and we even cut and polished the granite slabs ready to cut into headstones. the slabs were approx  6 foot by 10foot by 3inches  and slabs would never break under their own weight.
