Rumour has It that the Traditional Bricklayer is still there pointing up.
Rumor has it that the traditional bricklayers wall is still standing. They can’t tear it down!
@krob777 probably because the Traditional bricklayer used cement AGAIN
Brilliant competition well organized great effort
Well done loved the whole video. Especially for your first time. And great dedication at the end! Look forward to seeing 2024!!!
What a day!! Wish i could of attended. Great tribute to Richie 👏❤️🙏
Hi Tony it was an absolute blast hope to see you there next year, Richie was an incredible man and be massively missed all the best Tony
Could have*
What happened to the guy ? He looks young
“ I haven’t laid much this week and loads of Guinness last night so I’m good to go “ 😂 Proper tradesman !!
Personally I think 2 course ov block and 1 course of brick . Bit higher and not as painful on the back . Plus I think more would go down 👌
Nice one tone. 👍👍
Got me at the end did that ❤
We all love Charlie and hope he wins
Well done all . I would like to see other trade competitions too
There is no other trade
crackin punch line (not 2 grand )🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well done Charlie.
Fun part is the dismantling surely lol.
All these kids under 40think their invincible just you wait 😭😭😭😭
great video that......
Hi Tiff Thanks mate hope you are well mate, have a wonderful week all the best Tony 👍
I knew Charlie had it in the bag.
Looks a lot like the Bricklayer 500 in Vegas!
Brick work is a dying art i hope more young people get into the trade masons built modern civilization
Nah it die out
I litterally just started 4/5 weeks ago and fell in love with it
i think izzie would be a strong contender
For making coffee
awesome video!!
I'm the best brickie in Britain period
Well done by all, seems a fantastic event. Shame the likes of traditional bricklayer are using their platforms to have passive aggressive attitude towards it.
Hi user-dt6hz2ir3y it was an amazing event and it has had a positive vibe on the industry, I think everyone has the own point of view and it’s important that we respect everyone view even if we do or don’t agree with it. We all deal with life in different ways that’s what makes the world so interesting have a a wonderful weekend all the best Tony 👍
Passive aggressive? All people that enter competitions need some sort of aggression. Bricklayers, whether they have a platform or not compete on site every day of the week. It might be against the clock, the weather, a site agent or themselves but one thing is for sure they are trying to lay bricks as fast as they can to an acceptable standard. Horses for courses comes to mind.
What you waffling on about@@Bo88y22
What was the point in asking them about setting up the blocks and first course lol. Made the video way longer than necessary and took time off showing the actual brickworking
Izzy would wipe the floor with the lot :-)
Rob Songer. Just sayin .....
Hi Gerard Rob is an absolute Legend and an incredible tradesman and I had the privilege to meet with Rob, personally I don’t think anyone could be as technical and class than Rob kind you his mate Dutch is very close or evenly matched as Rob would say have a wonderful week all the best Tony 👍
He would get smoked
No wonder the UK housing sites are such a mess, Quality over quantity every day
I’d smoke these guys. They’re slow were I come from.
And me bruv! Bricklayers I shxt 'em!😎🤣🤣🖕
Everybody knows that joiners are the real tradesmen always putting brickies work right 😢
Shame Stu Crompton didn't attend, but he probably would of made it about himself as he normal does these days....
It’s funny social media how people can have an opinion about someone or something with out really knowing the person or circumstance. The person who is watched will either be judged or commended if he doesn’t or does share his life on line and the person watching doesn’t really understand what’s going on in his or her head or what it has took to get their we should really all support each other and if not talk directly to that person and express your thoughts in a proactive way life is really to short. Stu that I know has been on a massive life journey, he has had huge lows and highs but I don’t know anyone who hasn’t. Keep dreaming and keep pushing so many people complain about their circumstances but do they truly help themself it’s alway the mind set. Mental health has been a huge issue within the construction industry as long as I’ve been in it and it really only been talked about in the last four years and that’s how I was really made aware of it, by people like Rob, Steve,James and many others promoting it big one Lighthouse. Have a awesome weekend Tony 👍
@@BuildWithAE-well said!!!❤ From a roofer "
mahoney good guy ✌🏼👌🏼
I wouldn’t use that pre mixed mortar its shite no strength in it full of additives
nah lad pre mix works wonders I always use it never a prob
stu cropmton bet he is laughing like crazy watching these bricklayers😂
Hi qamillika1166 I personally think Stu would praise them he is one of the most inspiring and positive person I have talked to, he is one of the legends and true gent.
@@BuildWithAE Stu is an artist a very genuine and modest man with precision that matches the best carpenters the Best Bricky in the uk maybe in the world he could be a machine laying for speed
