and more properly, not a "castle" (that's media hype) ... more a
manor house

let me ask around, some of the subs i know who worked on the project
may still have some of the plan-sets.  

a point to remember, castles did not use sheetrock, until disney and
corporate renn-faires came along  .... (grin)

i like that one, primarily because of it's extreme location ... you
have to admire anyone who would build at that level in such a
inaccessable place (of no real military importance).

always had a negative view of castles from my lineage (used to
suppress my ancestors) and from many war-gaming sessions - walls are
a trap that usually will kill you.  better to maneuver freely.  ergo,
i have zero romantic connection to these usually ugly piles of stones

surviving remnants of tact were killed off by the scadian world 15-20
years back and never came back.  like so many things, find life is
better without it ... get a lot more postive accomplished (*not*
interested in the political, PC solutions ...).  self was always
trained / taught to speak ones mind, cal a thing a thing, and let the
goddess sort it all out. 

discouse is alchemy, and the central tool is the athenor .... what
survives the fire of the furnace is pure - the dross is burned away.
