Would it be normal for the rafters to be tied into the brickwork to
resist
the gable potentially being €śblown out€ť?


That guy was lucky not to have been hit by a brick that could well
have 'bounced' towards him.


He is so cool about it. How did he manage that? He just waited a second

Stoned out of his tiny. Thought he was hallucinating it ;-)
