    My older brother is a architect - never though too much about it until I started dealing with them through the CHCH rebuild ..... they often struggle with the reality of their design engagement having to meet a defined budget .........

    Nope. The latest Auckland house. 1:1 scale.

    Every "architect" is intent on building a monument to their own greatness. Nothing more.
    If you want something sensible, get a draftsman.

    You take your jandals off, so you can count your toes. You should be able to count up to 20 that way.

    My oldest grandson who is 2 1/2yrs had us rolling on the floor today. He was playing with a train set that had Thomas and a station with the fat controller. As he was giving a running commentary, he called the station master the fuckentroller. We sniggered at that and I pointed out to him that the controller was fat and so he was the fat controller. The fat fuckentroller he said and we couldn't argue anymore!
