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 or off topic. 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.
I like the design a lot, even if it is a bit 'opera house'. That rock pool area will look old very quickly though. It is a shame they did not do more with the landscaping.
ReplyDeleteoh my! What a beautiful bit of engineering.
