Hi - we've recently moved house and need to put up some pictures and other bits and bobs, one of which is a 7.5kg round mirror that has only one fixing hook.

The wall it's to go on is made from what appears to be thermalite blocks - at least that's what it looks like when looking inside a socket - the blue, crumbly type of block you can make a hole in with a screwdriver.

What would be the best way of hanging the mirror on that type of wall - brown plug and screw or would I need a bigger plug or would shield anchors or chemical fixes be better?

Thanks in advance.
