You're lucky. My sister-in-law was chiselling out a hole for a back
box when the bricks fell out into the next-door room leaving a nice
brick-shaped hole through the wall.

All these herculeans are welcome to come round and dig us out some back
boxes, I've done two rooms of this brick so far and not looking forwards
to the rest !
