As an ex apprenticeship coordinator i can tell you this is exactly the type of investment that these young people need. Some of them may not stay in the bricklaying game but they will have learned many life skills that will stand them in good stead. Brilliant, top job Charlie.

I love seeing these guys learn. Excellent instruction Charlie!

When o was serving my time. The man that actually took me on as the apprentice and the man that had 4 other apprentices along with me rarely spoke is through things or edplaind things to us. We learned from other orders lads he had employed. I was lucky enough I was stuck woth 2 very good men for a long time amd learnt quiet alot from these 2 lads regarding blockwork. And luckily on my first brick job I was working woth a very good brickie he set all profiles when needed and was quiet tasty layer and had impressive speed too for the quality of his work. But unfortunately not all apprentices are as lucky. These guys with you won't go too far wrong woth your words of advice and tips and tricks Charlie. Well done 👏

Brilliant Charlie . Future Teacher that can do the job and not get knowledge from a book . . Putting the future Tradesman at ease with fun as well as learning. Top man . Remember we all started out knowing nothing. Total respect to you Charlie. I wish you were my boss 45 years ago.

Wife wants to know… “would it not be better to get proper bricklayers to do that?” and “well I bet they don’t make very good sandcastles on holiday?”. So I’m away to bed before I start arguing with myself about life choices. Well done lads… you keep going. I’m sure there’s not many bricklayers such as Charlie that will take time out of his day to give you some solid advice and a chuckle along the way. 👍🏻

Nice to see you guys working with a good spirit and nice to see you sharing the knowledge charlie .. nuff love

Well done Charlie your giving those lads a wealth of experience,hopefully your get a massive thankyou from the keepers .

This is truly quality Charlie, treating them fair and giving them the knowledge they need. Your leaving your legacy in those young men and I think its its a very honourable one. And fuck me I thought 3 blocks was hard to throw up on the shoulder and only did that once lol

Great stuff Charlie passing on your knowledge to new guys.

crackin on with the jokes with the lads got the like m8, keep at it

Watching clip is like attending a class, Thank you!

Great your showing the young lads, patience is key

Love your videos mate, literally been watching them daily. I work an office job and yurn for an outdoors job where you can take pride in your work, most of my family worked in the building trade so im starting to think i chose the wrong career path 😂 Keep em coming! ❤

the one left handed lad is fked 🤣

I always found the best bricklayers came from hoddies as they were used to hard work....we called them improvers.

“How long you lot on site for” already wants em off the job

I like it when someone shows the youngsters rather than just shouts at them as none of had a clue at 1 time

Hi Charlie, You are a great teacher and very good person on bricklaying. I hope one day appreciates could like you. From Ianwood ❤️❤️❤️

Miss working outside so much. I f#####g loved it! I'd be sh!t at knocking up muck now, but i really miss just getting stuck in. Indoor jobs are sh!te!

Top man Charlie

Great video Charlie

Fairplay i admire anyone who is willing to teach the youngsters personally ive always enjoyed it top man Charlie 👍🧱🧱

Greàt job as ever charlie

A friendly reminder to bring the magnet thanks Charlie 🤣

Super Hod lifts four Conkers.

Nice one Charlie.

Nostalgia of being bsck at college

Well taught as well

A great teacher Charlie the lads seem to be doing ok. You won’t want to be messing with Ben, 😢 I can’t see that doing his back any good though.

Thes young lads don’t realise they are being taught by one of the best , the man has a young hot chick a brand new lush pad , vend all the tools and equipment any brick layer will need , has a few good lads work for him , THE MAN IS WINNING IN LIFE

It does the heart good seeing this.

i see big ben in ur team soon

Haha go on ben 👌👌having a go tmz now at work 🤣🤣

Best advice you can teach them to lay but try and teach them to stay away from the devil's dandruff

😂😂😂😂

Keep it going 🧱👌

😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Please don't jump on me now , but personally , I honestly believe your teaching them bad habits as beginners , to lay bricks nicely , 1st they need to learn how to pick up muck as a real beginner would , roll it and pick it up so you can get a decent spread , and then flatten the bed using the trowel UNDER the line , the way they are doing it , especially with full fill insulation , the bed will squeeze out the back against the insulation , I always teach the correct way for beginners , also they really should be atleast practicing how to build corners , remember these guys are trying to learn a trade here AND NOT just to be line monkeys 😉

Hes funnier when hes bein serious isnt he

big bens got long arms like me, i can get 13 bricks on my shoulder i bet he can

Knock it on the head now lads ? The weather here in uk is shite ? I speak as a carpenter of 40 years . Listen to your elders .

First view and first comment

when they return to college the "instructors" wont recognise them thanks to charlie , on the TOPS first week was rolling muck and spreading on 2 blocks , dont know how long these lads have been at college but to send them out like this is disgraceful , are the "instructors" ex milkmen and thats no dis respect to milkmen
