    Started my apprenticeship in 1979, 61 now still love it when it’s not raining. Good advice to the apprentice Drew he’s very lucky, I just got bullied but got through it.

    We are tappers and proud 😂😂, we get some serious shit for it but that’s how I was taught 😌seriously though it helps the brick down and it’s less stress on the arm and wrist especially on brick like those sponges you’re on there . Also Rob Songer is a tapper so we are in good company 😍🤩😂.
    After our chat Izzy poor Drew deserves that Kip in the van, he is a grafter and rare breed indeed 🤩💪🏽🧱👍🏼

    There SHOULD be a LARGE air space gap in-between the face of the insulation and the OUTER WALL inside the cavity ; this includes an air space gap in between the face of the insulation and the cavity-wall-tie drip points which are in the centre of the cavity.
    Ask N.V.Q. BRICKWORK teachers for PROOF of this !

    I know that nobody cares but some big companies WILL call you out for 5mm BLOCK WORK off guage like in 5:21, its noticeable the last block is below level.
    Next course tie will be leaning inwards and bringing water into the house, for a reason some companies grow and others dont.. 5mm is 5mm and makes a whole difference.

So watching you returning this corner why don't you set up a profile on the next panel and run the corner out to a line hence doing away with all that leveling ..Cheers Bob ..
