hello glen , im signed up to the other bricklaying channels on youtube ,but you sir are by far the most entertaining ,proper old school you and mick from a time when the building was fun ,keep them coming glen
Brilliant stuff looking forward to the next one. You remind me of the old school brickys I started working with in and after my apprenticeship over 25 yrs ago. I picked up great tips like these I still use today. Keep these coming pal. 👍
Loving the patter boys and all the old school methods, im 34 and from up in Scotland and think these vids are top class. Well done lads keep it up cheers 🍻
We you the same method for concrete footing always set them down 9" below damp , then we know we got 3 coarse of brick and one corse of block , as long as ground ain't to uneven if so we got to 12 below , great video and you make me smile 👍 some great tips
Love these videos. When i was on site, the initial spreading of the compo along the whole length of the wall used to knacker my wrist, i knew there must of been an easier way to do it.
Great videos! Only a few brickies I follow and just got linked to you! Smiling all the way through and already going to use a couple of tips. Especially cracking a beer at the end! 😂😂🍺🍺
Hilarious stuff. I only needed the first video and will never use this further info, but I'm watching for the interplay. You should start a show after the Canadian Red Green Show.
hi glenn, great to see that you are back.good tips easily understood for the beginner. ps - how do you manage to keep the suit so clean? I wear a mortar coloured 2 piece with a cheeky little return cuff.hides the stains. stay lucky stay free glen
Blimey Glenn if you took your shirt off the suns rays would make you invisible i don't mean that in a nasty way just observations. Glenn i have been watching your videos and your tips are great saving time, Time laying is money and that's your goal end of the day A blinding extension / Wall / House .The world is your oyster so the saying goes . Thank you for sharing i have been around ass-oles most of my adult life , My grandad was in the Navy and he came home from the war changed so my nan told me anyway to cut a long story short when i stayed at my nan's he would talk to me as if i was an adult i was 6 - 7 at the time he would tell me how to make stuff he had a bandsaw and Every Gadget out there he would come back from the Exhibition loaded up with gadgets and he would show me how to make Mortise & Tenon joints and he would say to me get a trade look about and if you chose something you would really like to do tell me i will help you, if you don't see yourself staying in that trade try something else but a city & Guilds in whatever in the Housing market and you won't want for anything work hard and you will be rewarded. Anyway the Gist is he would say if he was on a building site and a new bloke started to learn most of them when asked how to do something would turn round and say "Do what i did i didn't get any help I had to graft for my money and City & Guilds I had to learn on my own so don't try to live off of me asking me or anyone do what i had to and then turn around to the other blokes sneering saying Cheeky C- - t trying to earn off me picking my brain. And people around me were similar Ass - - les. Nowadays it's the opposite people posting videos' like yourself showing their tips and everything is there just got to type into Google "How do i do Whatever" and there are videos to help, The Times there are have changed. Bob Dylon innit LOL Much love for people like you who share tips to help you do a good job rather than "Don't ask me and hoping i would F- -k up " Cheer's Glenn have a great Day.
Whats with the miami vice suit Glenn?!! Nice to see a bit of crack going on that.stu crompton feller takes life to seriously. Think miss vorderman was smitten glenn :-)
When you held the bottom of the stick on the DPC course do you just pick any course to mark the timber stick or do you slide the pencil up the stick till Mick sees in in the view finder on the automatic level
I hold the baton with the bottom on the DPC. Then I slide the pencil up the baton till Mick sees it. I then put a line here to mark it. Then I hold a separate piece of baton upright on the corner I want to mark. I then slide the baton with the pencil mark on it up this baton. When Mick sees the pencil line, I know the bottom of this baton is the same level as the DPC. I hope that helps mate, glenn ps make sure you keep the first baton the same way up when transferring the level
I think you'll enjoy it iff you watch the series John. There are still tips, but the comedy element seems to creep in. Mick doesn't think it's funny though! Stay safe buddy, glenn
These are obviously recently filmed because of the corner blocks and DAB makita radio in the background......so why does it look like you’re from the 80s? 😂
I love your videos, but it's looks like it was filmed in the 1980's and I'm not just talking about the fashion! Well done, but god knows how you've created that vintage retro look with 4:3 ratio, washed out colours and a slightly out of focus look. Some film studios would pay a fortune to create this authentic look. I genuinely had to check the date.
"Mick, Mick, I'm here Mick, don't get carried away" 🤣👍
Boys you are brilliant!😂
Best way to set out quick and simple, love the banter with Mick.
Cheers buddy
Grateful for guys like these who willingly share their knowledge. Much respect.

Love the videos Glen, been on the trowel since 1979, tell me mate, what age did you retire? I,m starting to feel the pace now, 56 years old.
69 and still going. My wife was really impressed there was a woman bricklayer until your second comment. I just thought I was getting chatted up!
