The attachment mentions that one of Churchill's two hobbies was bricklaying. 
This was brought to my attention a few days ago when I watched "Mission to 
Moscow" on Turner Classic Movies.
When Ambassador Joseph Davies was on his way home from Russia at the end of his 
tenure as ambassador, he stopped in England and visited WSC. When he arrived at 
Chartwell, Clemmie took him to meet Churchill, who was in his yard laying 
bricks, and expressed his pride in his craft before they discussed the threat 
posed by Nazi Germany.
