You misjudged a wall by 60 bags?
 
30 Bags = one third
60 Bags = two third
90 Bags = Gable- end
Ask Nath80 how many bags you need? It's not 20 bags.

Sadly, if the Covid thread's anything to go by, Nath's more interested in counting body bags. All those pessimistic stats are like catnip!
 
I meant to say a 3rd to go and not used all 30 bags yet.
Not so bad.
As long as you did not under price the job, that's the expensive cock-up you don't want.
I did it once on a job, short of white dash, jumped in van, grabbed 4 bags from builders merchants, got back to job, 4 bags of black dash.. (not in clear plastic)
Only upside booked out white dash, black dash was twice the price.
White dash matters.
 
That’s the joy of pre bagged lol happened to me on a job.. was out by a lot but wasn’t half way through doing it.. had a gable lelft an was like.. nah that’s no stretching ha! Always over measure an take back what’s left.
