a Media Studies degree at their local poly-come-uni.

The bricky I know moved away to East Anglia and spent
several years leasurely building his own house with
his wife. Actually, he had spent many years before
that teaching brickworking (and his own brickwork is
very impressive I have to say), but stopped when the
college made lots of their teaching staff redundant,
so presumably there aren't many trained brickies coming
into the trade?

Most pick it up and it shows.
