I'm under no illusions as to the skills required for good bricklaying!

A few months ago I happened across an archive film on one of the
more obscure freesat channels, it was from 1950-ish, and on how

trowelling was so elegantly done it was a joy to behold.

I remember the generation game decades ago had a demonstration by a
bricklayer using plasticiser and the contestants were obviously given
none so they would make a bigger hash of it ....
