Get a drone Vincey! You’ll be able to see the milf next to the pool topless too
I appreciate good buildings probably all of us do , I used to be infatuated with old but just lately I got a thing for ultra modern places ,
Went to Edinburgh castle few years ago loved this room and the actual building was very nice to highly recommend to go see the castle if you haven’t been mate

I love the look and size of massive houses but I wouldn’t like to live in one. Prefer working on them, cleaning and maintaining my house drives me mad. Don’t have enough time to do it, dread to think cleaning one of them. Gas, leccy and council tax would make you shudder on them to.

will bonding fill out those spaces?
I love an old building. I find myself imagining what it was like as a building site. What would the size of the workforce be? Where did they all come from? Transport then was slow and the population smaller. Then there’s the size of the timbers, stones etc. Someone had to “work” the materials into pieces that could be transported.....no 40 ton lorries.....all that had to be planned beforehand. And then there’s the workmanship, and the use of maths, trigonometry etc to build all these huge places........no computers and lasers and such then, but they not only got it right , many of the buildings have only crumbled because of lack of maintenance.....
Ely Cathedral is a favourite. When it was built it would have been on a lump sticking up out of miles and miles of fen. All the materials would have had to been shipped in. And the octagonal central dome thingy is a work of art in terms of workmanship and a miracle of maths and science and engineering that you’d find hard to equal today.
