CALLING ALL EXPERIENCED BRICKLAYERS

Channel 4 needs bricklayers with bags of personality to construct an authentic Roman Villa. If you might be interested in six months fully paid work on a building site with no power tools please get in touch (no obligation).

We're filming a new history series that will follow a team of modern day builders as they build a villa using Roman materials, tools and methods.

No knowledge of heritage work or Roman history required.
Good rates and accommodation (in Shropshire) provided.

Email Roman.Villa@darlowsmithson.com
or text or call 07921 694530 for information about this unique project.

Joiners got some time on his hands now ;D

Have the producers told the brickies that Romans used slaves to build their walls and usually they did it in the buff ?

I wonder what "bags of personality" means? I couldn't find it in the Screwfix catalogue. :-?
