We love Bricks!



I love bricks! There is something about their texture, tangibility, what they represent as little pieces of something wonderful.
Our brickie Nigel is very talented. I love the way he is tying in all the brick work to the existing building.

The guys even managed to save an old victorian air brick which we reused in the back wall to take the ventilation through to the old part of the house.











On Wednesday last week the "new" reclaimed bricks arrived. The building site is now "choc-a-block" quite literally with bricks everywhere. They look a bit lighter than the original house but I think once we wash the dust off them and mingle them in with what we saved from the old kitchen they will do just fine.
