i am trying to fix 4" skirting to a brick wall without any success. I have
tried using "no nails" adhesive and oval nails but the nails just bend and
wont hold the board close enough to the brick. The only other thing i can
think of is rawl plugs and screwing the thing to the wall which will be time
consuming to say the least.

any ideas much appreciated???????

The traditional way is wooden wedges knocked in between some of the
bricks
instead of mortar, then nailing into the wedges. You can rake out the
mortar with
an electric drill.
I've had success no-nailing skirting to plaster. You could plaster the
bottom bit and
glue to that ?
