I am trying to nail the conduit over the cables on the old outer leaf
(new extension inner leaf) which is 40 yr old red brick, Masonary nails
are bending like galv clout heads !.

Don't quite understand the outer leaf /inner leaf thing; but the answer
is surely to nail into the mortar.

Are you really nailing conduit, or is it capping? This is
pre-plastering, right? IME oval conduit doesn't need much fixing in
place at all.
