Patch or stick a brick in.

[FreeD]

Hi.

Just removed a cupboard in alcove. A bit more than I was hoping was removed from one of the bricks and I can see through to the cavity. Was thinking of just sticking a bit of bonding in, but worried about pushing it through into cavity...I phoned a builder friend of mine who hasn't seen it but reckoned it might be best to put a brick in before patching...but i'm thinking if I try to remove the rest of the brick I might knock it into the cavity and its best just to patch.

What you reckon?

Cheers
