  1. Looks very nice; those wop chappies certainly know their stuff!

    Shame about the medieval witchcraft which takes place inside...

  2. Well said - that certainly is a stunning looking building - cant make up my mind if I really like it or not.

    It certainly creates a place I would like to experience though (but not on a sunday when all the weirdos are about!

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
