What is the ratio of your mix.?

Quality work

Didn't know you're a left hooker Andy . 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Classy job, Andy. Weatherstruck always looks great when it's done properly like that.

Fine figure of a man 💪🍻🇬🇧

I have a stone build that needs repointing with lime mortar…what’s best to use ? NHL lime with what ratio sharp sand ? And how much water ? Total novice here 😅

Top notch, I have to say, mortar gin for me, most people wont pay for the time and effort of this amazing level of pointing, the6 want a quick cheap job, out comes the gun, three times as fast but nowhere near the precision of your work. I wish I had customers that would pay the correct price for a craftsmans job but I cant turn down people 😂😂😂

What a nice chap Phill is!

The old brickwork looks loads better then the new looks well ruff

Wanted to send you a pic off a intersting building near me a pub

Always interesting mate

Just bought a w rose,narrow london 9 and half inch, plastic handle,lovely feel and balance, highly reccomend

Thoroughly enjoyed that one Andy . Nobody looks up any more or even forward. Heads buried in their phone screens 😵‍💫😵‍💫. Australia must be soon mate . Have a great time over there 🚐💨🕷️🕸️🍺🍺😎

All that damn plastic and trash

Enjoyed the video with History on old brick work buildings, you haven't Lost the Sharp 👁️

Well said Andy 👏

Enjoyed that 👍

Great video more of that mate

Nice one mate, love this video

Nice walkabout Andy, a shame so much is being lost to redevelopment but there are still some gems tucked away in the Square Mile. Cheers for sharing.

Hope everything goes okay buddy 🙏🏻 x

What's the oldest boozer in london ?andy

Nice video Andy . I remember some one left a comment on one of Rob songers videos a few years back . Just think a hundred years ago there were thousands of Rob songers around . What do you think, a hundred years ago what percentage of bricklayers around were capable of this high end brick work.

Haverstock hill , Hampstead town hall. I was only there last weekend on a day out with the misses, used to live in that area 20 years ago so love going back to go up the Hampstead for a coffee. It's such a beautiful place. Great video buddy.

Good advice on the phone comment at the end. Thanks for the journey and taking the time to video. Thumbs up.

If you’re up Liverpool St Station again Andy, pop over to Elder Street (E1) it’s 1700 building brickwork 🧱 👌🏻

Nice to see the old building , proper trades and proper design's.... architecture at is finest

Hello, as someone who lives in Cheshunt: the malsters and red cow are still alive and kicking but the windmill has been sold and is being renovated into flats.

Enjoyed your video Andy, the Robert Peel opposite Liverpool St station used to be a Pub! Thought you would have known that,😆

London - Jesus it never stops. Small plots, tight access - no problem! Bring it on. V interesting vlog. Cheers

I found that one of you best videos Andy, but then again, I guess I am and old boy now. I encourage you to do more of these to record London's fine brick architecture, no one else will do it. I used to go to a pie and mash on Wandsworth Bridge Rd, long gone now. In that area it is mainly Victorian, Pineapples were a huge status symbol back then because they were near impossible to get. A local builder picked up on this and put stone pineapples on his buildings, I assume they are still there, we would always look up to spot them on the way to the pie n mash. All the fine work you showed complied with the classical rules of architecture. There are rules and proportions that date back to the Romans, the Greeks and even the Egyptians. I won't bore the viewers but for those who want to learn, look up something called the "Golden Ratio," that is the starting point. At the beginning of the 20th Century, classical architecture was no longer taught at University's and the new generation of Architects were told to be free thinkers. Well, I leave it up to you to decide how that turned out. The only firm I know of Architects still practising the correct way are called Adam Architects, have a look at their work. Harvey

I've just been diagnosed with terminal bone cancer. They said I had hepatitis. Dormant, but medication could activate it, they told me it was for having unprotected sex , see what happens, getting old only got beer left. Really enjoying the london history lessons

Enjoyed that, I do it when I'm in Manchester or wherever I may be, the erosion of our past is out of control around Manchester 😢👍

I thought you could have treatment to get clean from hep now. Am I mistaken ?

Unfortunately we will never see the craftsmanship of the victorian era repeated again. Modern materials and advances in construction methods should be welcomed but they have consigned craftsmanship in the traditional trades to the history pages.

Sounds like you’re fuvked

No sniveling back in them days craftsman great video andy👍

I did some brickwork like it and they called it brick scales on the drawing

What was the average price of a pint Andy ?

Cracking video Andy. True craftsmenship and much of the skills have been lost today.I make a lot of doors, casement windows and sash windows ,bowed,curved,doubles,Venetians etc and there are some seriously nice casement windows in London.

Andy, I hope you will keep the travel Vlogs going when you are in Oz. Cities are amazing places and I love the contradiction of the old - to - new buildings, and so fascinating to see how they evolve over time as well. Those early tube lines were excavated and lined with cast iron rings. Worth getting in touch with the Institute of Civil Engineers as they have some excellent archive material on all things underground. A subject worthy of further study. P-U-B......? 🧱👍😁

I done a refurb on that Robert peel building it’s a accountants offices - never seen so much crumpet on a job tho 😂

Could they afford to build buildings like these today nice video 👍🇬🇧

Shes got another pair of those boots back at home hahaha 29.27
