Great topic! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Just as I think that it's time that I snuck quietly off and stopped babbling away on forums, along comes something I can't resist. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
But which side should I take.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />
On the one hand I can see myself chuckling gleefully away at the screams of outrage as all the Grants and sinecures dry up and the bullsh*t generating machinery is hauled away for scrap. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> .....
But on the other hand I have spent some wonderful time in galleries. There's something absolutely awe inspiring about standing right next to beautiful objects from the Chinese "Entombed Warriors" exhibition, or the tombs of the Pharoahs, for instance. And Van Gogh looks OK in books, but when your eyes are only a few feet from his paint, they can tend to cloud up a bit....
But I get the feeling that this discussion will not be won by taking a wishy-washy approach, or having a bob each way. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> I'll retire for a while and consider the options. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" />
