    It looks quite good. :blue thumb:

    You may not need to 'age' them as they're not a strong red and having holes through the bricks may encourage efflorescence and form whitish patches on the bricks. That would normally happen during the winter as it occurs when it's damp but as you have no damp course it may even start if we get enough rains during the spring and summer. :)
