Unusual, and pleasingly rustic, I think.

As a Brit, I can state quite objectively that he's an absolute fruitcake.

Nancy Pelosi said that Trump's psychologically unhinged dialogue with the pope doesn't require a conversation: it requires a diagnosis.

True, and not to mention the goths.

What a shame. It never seems right to me when they lock churches, but perhaps there's a good reason.

Luoyang is in north mid China, and gets very cold in the winter.  It was here that I discovered that the heating in electric taxis is utterly pathetic at best.  The place is well worth a vist, though.

One half of the Luoyang city gatehouse.

A very good point. Normally, they start another to distract from the disaster of the previous one, but this time they've run out of options.

Nice composition!

I hope you manage it. The last person I remember trying to tidy things up in that regard was Harold Wilson, but the establishment pulled the carpet out from under his feet. Perhaps times have changed somewhat since then, and there is more accountability.

That will be the end of Trump. Thankfully.

I must admit, I do enjoy the minute technical details, they represent the enjoyment of detailed observation.

But why doesn't America do anything about him? Is it that they don't regard him as offensive and moronic as everyone else does?

Speaking as a non American, I can say that people don't hate the US, they hate Trump and what he's doing with the US.

There's a lot going on. The one on the left looks as if it replaces a previous taller window, judging by the brickwork below it, and it's proportions look a bit stunted. The one on the right has bricks set over it to form a lintel, maybe more for decoration than function, so could be later?

That's what I was wondering; the bell stage window looks roughly where the tower centre line would be without the turret.

Is there any reason for the strangely misaligned windows? It make me curous every time I see that picture.

How would he know? He wasn't even there.

Sadly, it seems that everyone wants to leave their mark. One of my favourite churches, Blythburgh, in East Anglia, has had hideous modern art scultures added to its interior, and no amount of time will aloow those to blend in. Little wonder that some buidings don't like what's done to them.

Disappointed would be a more appropriate description, of past supporters who refuse to follow a politiaclly inept and genocide supporting party.

Utter nonsense; China actually wanted him in power at that time, as he was so usefully damaging to America. Now, of course, it's different.

I've enjoyed your observations on this.
