You Lot Asked for It

You lot have got it.

(apologies Bobskoot and Baron - you both clearly have good taste and I'm grateful that you show your appreciation)

Feedback from my post of the beautiful temple of Poseidon suggested that you felt that the place was unfinished, had concrete reinforcement bars sticking out of the roof and suggestions were offered variously indicating that:

Affer wants UPVC windows

Bikerted feels the need for solar panels (very eco but there isn't much pollution around Cape Sounion)

  6. Nikos:

    Sometimes I just wonder, who has been there before, what it was like to have wandered the streets eons ago in a past life. What hardships the people endured, what conveniences they had, if any.

    Utilitarian, cement structures evoke no emotions, just another building like so many others of their kind through-out the world. Functional in their design but not able to endure the test of time
