Brick Walls
« on: Sunday 28 November 04 10:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I really think we could do with a brick wall page where we could post stuff thats really got us bogged down like things that no matter where you try we cant fined the answer we all have them and they are so frustrating  we could post them on the board and some one could volunteer to break it down in exchange for them taking one of some one else's
i hope that lot makes sense

I think mine are double reinforced and 3ft thick. Concrete lined and strengthened with steel rods. It seems absolutely ludicrous that Ive hit a brick wall as thick as this....

...maybe we need the "Jericho" approach, to get these walls down!
