Over the top

This gate and entry were even more elaborate than they look as there were four pillars on either side (that I cut out as they were too distorted, although I guess it still is).

Is it just me, or has Pbase slowed to a crawl again? It is taking me forever to load pages, both on WiFi and a fiber optic connection. I have a really hard time dealing with this so hope I can comment!

Very nice looking gates!! Yes,Pbase is slow. Until everyone complains it won't get better. I email them two weeks ago and received no response at all!!

...and this must just be the side entrance, or is it normal to 4W drive up steps?
Pbase seems to have been slow for a week or so, but not desperately and better for uploading than down

Oh these gates are pretty special, Helen. Like their design too! BV

Looks more like an entrance of a temple. You must know almost every door in the district.

YES PBase is getting slower again, jus renewed last month so they have the money to sort it out......
