Birds with teeth, little men in triangular hats and other fanciful figures appear in the Tudor wall paintings.

The people that covered those walls with plaster no doubt thought the wall were ugly.

I understand why.

Maybe they will look more presentable once they are cleaned up.

I was telling an employee of mine about my tour of a 120 year old house in Houston. He said that he could take me to a house in England that had been continuously lived in for 1,200 years.

Anyway, on my tour I learned where the term 'sleep tight' originated.

Looks like it could use some restoration. Just keep that Spanish lady who restored the painting of Jesus away
