Dear Readers:
ReplyDeleteI have turned off word verification some time ago. Works wonderfully, no spam comments to speak of (one or two in over a year, that is).
Comment moderation is on for posts older than a day. That way none of your comments on older posts escapes my attention (I love and appreciate each and every one, thank you for taking the time to leave one and make me smile!). It also has the added benefit that, again, you can comment without going through the time-consuming word verification step which lately has become quite a hassle.
Should comment verification appear, due to some technical glitch that escapes me, please let me know. I'll try to set it right as soon as possible.
A wonderful day to all of you,
Merisi
What a nice visit to the Prince's garden estate, how beautiful it is there! I love the mood in this series~
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful garden -- an entire wall of espalier! But what really got my attention was the iron gate.
