Hi flatcat,

Very nice! Did you know that in later medieval Italian cities, many noble families did build very tall towers, not unlike yours. They had to build 'up' because there wasn't enough space to build 'out'.

Just one thing: do the king and queen not get along ???? I only ask because of the separate bedrooms...  :P

Cheers, AndrewL

Thanks Andrew :wave:

As to the bedroom scenario, I wasn't sure, so I asked my Mum and she said seperate bedrooms so that is what I did.

Great work Damo! I can think of no better way of spending a sunday.

I really enjoyed looking at your castle.

That's a great castle Damo, I did feel sorry for the poor maid having to carry pails of water up all those stairs and I must admit that the knights did deserve a beer having climbed all the way to the top.  (I agree with your mum too  ;D ;D maybe the king snores!)

Thanks for the positive comments everyone! :wave:

Again apologies for the rubbishness - I sort if ran out of furniture and filler toasts, and our lounge where I photographed it is very dark which explains the grainy photographs :(

BTW, Does anyone know where I got the names from? ;)

Great work, Damo.  And again great detail such as the knights in the armoury sharpening the sword.  A really enjoyable tour of your castle and a great use of a Sunday afternoon.  The two storey dining hall I thought was a magnificent piece of design and just what you'd expect in a castle for showing off to the guests.  And I didn't notice any problems with the quality of the photos.

No idea Damo...but I like the name of the Castle...sounds very authentic.

Good job Damo! I concur that it was a Sunday well spent, the details I particularly enjoyed were the fellow drawing water, the armory and the dining hall (room), the poster was also clever.  :wave:
