Quote of the Day

A physician can bury his mistakes, but an architect can only advise his clients to plant vines.

I never make mistakes. If anyone finds fault with any of my buildings I blame the client for cutting the budget.
Rather than plant vines if something's off-kilter, my motto is "paint it red and make a feature of it." Much more fun!

Bahaha! I love it, Dive. I've spent the couple of days wandering around the University with a ranging pole. It's an archive of hideousities (my word, I know) that has captivated my attention far more that the fact that I'm supposed to running around pointing out features with a pole.

Ranging poles make great spears. Be tempted.

Be tempted? Yes, indeedy. Since the day I started and got paired up with the most pedantic wanker in the universe.
