Castle Roof

Castle Roof
Is it true that there’s a dark and gloomy castle up in Scotland where Dr McFrankenstein produces Scots exports?

Is it right that you make special “Creatures for export to England”?
Obviously something went wrong with this feller called Brown! When you took him down from the Gibbet the crows had pecked out one of his eyes.
Was the bolt through his neck not adjusted properly when you hoisted him up on the roof to catch the lightning strikes?
We don’t mind you sending down your usual “Jocks”.But please make sure that they don’t run Amok at the first sign of stress !
Come on,you Scots! Play the White Man!

Yeah .. whiskey, porridge and deep fried battered jelly babies ..but then they’re for us .. you can have Brown .. though its not all his fault ..ugly though he may be…. its the English who like the taste of US c0c|{….

Loire Valley Castles – Six That You Must See

The Val de Loire is a majestic region awarded world heritage listing because of its amazing chateaux.The kings of France, seduced by the temperate climate and the game-filled forests constructed their these incredible Loire Valley castles. They surrounded themselves with the greatest architects and artiests of this era.

This is the country of a thousand castles. Many chateaux and stately homes are open to the public: some are state owned, such as Chambord and Blois; others are private, and still lived in. A huge percentage of them run son-et-lumiere spectacles during the summer season. Chateau de Chenonceau and Chateau de Chambord are incredibly popular.

Chateau du Clos Luce
Chateau du Clos Luce is where Leonard de Vinci spent the last fewyears of his life. You can visit his salons, study, kitchen and bedrooms, the chapel and see frescoes painted by his pupils. His drawings and paintings are set out in the garden of the chateau with giant models sponsored by IBM of some of the most spectacular machines he invented together with voice-overs.

Chateau du Chaumont
Chateau du Chaumont is located on the bank of the Loire River about twenty minutes west of Blois originated in the 11th century

In 1560, the chateau became the property of Catherine de’ Medici who entertained numerous astrologers there, including Nostradamus. On the death of her husband, King Henry II, Catherine used her power to take over the much coveted Chateau de Chenonceau from her husband’s favourite, Diane de Poitiers. She was forced to accept the Chateau de Chaumont in exchange for her beloved Chenonceau.

Each year from April to October, the chateau holds an international garden event covering a different theme. Last year it was play. In 2007 the theme is going to be mobility.

Chateau de Chenonceau
Le Chateau des Dames built on a bridge across the river Cher is one of the more beautiful chateaux of the Loire with elegant arches and turrets, and stately avenues bordered by plane trees. It’s beauty is reflected in the waters of the River Cher.

Chenonceau owes much of its design and beauty to four women. Catherine de Briconnet was largely responsible for its early Renaissance style. Catherine then passed the chateau to Henri II’s mistress, Diane de Poiters who was responsible for the formal gardens to the left of the chateau as you approach it, and for building a bridge across the River Cher. Unfortunately Diane de Poitiers was forced to relinquish ownership of the castle to Catherine de Medici (the embittered wife of Henri II) who offered Chateau de Chaumont in exchange. Not exactly a fair swap! Catherine de Medici constructed the gallery over the bridge. Later the chateau was inherited by Louise de Lorraine, the bereaved wife of Henri III Catherine’s favourite son. She painted the ceiling of her bedroom black and white out of respect for her late husband.

Chateau de Cheverney
Chateau de Cheverny is undoubtedly the most lavishly furnished of all the Loire Valley Chateaux. Built between 1604 and 1634 very little has changed. The present owner is a direct descendant of the original owners. The 1640s interior decoration is among the finest of its kind. Some of the chateau’s masterpieces include paintings by old masters, tapestries from Paris and Holland plus Louis XIV’s commode and unforgettable grandfather clock.

Tintin fans will note that Herge based the mythical Moulinsart on Cheverny. There is a Tintin exhibition directly opposite the chateau. In world war 2 the 18th century Orangerie served as a hiding place for the Mona Lisa.

Chateau de Chambord
Chambord is truly royal in its grand scale, its grand air, its indifference to common consideration (Henry James). It combined the dream and ego of King Francois I with the imagination of Leonardo de Vinci. The result is a real mathematisation of architecture, a grandiose creation : 440 rooms with 365 fireplaces, a fabulous double staircase, and a unique roof terrace

The Loire Valley is a beautiful region and a great destination. Remember you do not have to be satisfied just visiting castles, you can actually stay in a castle. Many are now converted to hotels and chambre d’hotes (bed and breakfast establishments).
