It depends on the worker, because some of them use more cement, other use it less, but on average, for 100 bricks, I would say that you need a bag of 25kg. Cement comes in 25kg bags at a 3:1 mix you should be able to lay about 100 bricks assuming they have frogs and are laid frogs up. Usually, I am buying a bit more of them from Fleet Up Marketplace, just in any case, it's better to have a little left than not enough. You can use it for something else afterwards, I am sure that anyone can find a decent application for it.

4 x 25 kg bags of sand and a bag of cement will kill it , try 2 sand a 1/2 a bag of cement first , not easy mixing 4 with a spade and you might not need it ,if you dont have a mixer use a wheel barrow , or the floor if you dont have a wheel barrow and if you have no febmix plasticizer , just mix a little bit of washing up liquid in with the water instead !

I'd get three big bags of sand from selco and one bag of dust , there bags of sand are twice the size of others
