Hello all,

Im hoping this isnt to left field for this group so here goes.

I help out at a local childrens nursery and they have a nice decking out the
back. Only problem is when it rains (and it has been known to do that in
glasgow) it gets very slippy.

That is the purpose of decking. It makes a lot more sense in hot dry
climates.

This usually means the decking be out of
commission for 3/4 of the year up here. Could anybody suggest a good
treatment for the wood as im sure that this must be an issu for anybody that
has ever put down decking in the UK.

Bonfire night is 5th November.

Thanking in advance from me an 40 hyperactive anklebiters

Regards,

I knew it - just knew it....seems there never can be a thread on decking
without someone saying it's better on a bonfire than in the garden
