i dont mind the white paint look, and it would reflect the light well.
but im in a simular position to you chris.
all my bricks came from the old cattle market in leicester.
when they knocked it down, all the bricks were just being crushed for hardcore.
i got permision to spend a day on site with 4 people helping me to fill a 7 1/2 ton lorry i had rented.
i had a total of 4,500 bricks, and it took me 3 months and alot of blisters. chipping of all the old cement.
i did pay a local bricklayer to lay the bricks, at a cost of £1,000 in 1997 i think?
after all that hard work, it would kill me to paint them.
