New Gate

[poliphilo]

We came back from holiday to find the workmen had been round in our absence and put in a new back gate. The new gate is black-  and taller than the old gate and I'm still not over the visual shock of it.  Everytime I catch a glimpse of it through the kitchen window it's as if I'm looking out at the void. I'm thinking it would be nice to repaint it in pastoral colours- apple green or olive drab, but then again, that would cost money.

Ah - See what you mean. I automatically thought 'steel gate' not timber. Sorry for the inconvenience. Yes, go on - liven it up a bit.

And now I'm going to take the picture down. I don't want to have to be looking at it. :)

You make steel gates. I didn't know that.

I wouldn't say your gate was ugly, perhaps some witty graffitti artist will liven it up at no cost to yourself.

Very nice. If I had the money- and the right sort of property- I'd seriously consider a pair of your Mackintosh inspired gates.
