Thanks for all your insight and suggestions - I have a very high clay soil which dosent drain really well (part of the reason for the patio) I've got plans to dig a french drain under where the deck is going to be, so I'll work the draining of the patio somehow into that.
I dont think I will do a full concrete installation, but I do like the idea of a gravel underbed with sand to level and Install.
Now the fun begins... actual work!
