How do you like my office?

Have just moved office.  This is what we have got:

Newcastle upon Tyne, UK

We have two rooms in a 17th Century former hospital, which was built 
and attached to a (genuine) 12th Century tower and dungeon  (yes, 
darlings we do indeed have a dungeon)  built as an annexe to a 
monastery (destroyed during the dissolution in the reign of Henry 
VIII).  

The ceilings are very low and the floors are so odd, you can see the 
tilt if you look.  

The plaster is so old it is illegal to drill holes into it and it is 
so patchy looking it makes you feel odd to look at it.  

However, we have Broadband internet at 2mb connection (yey!).

In the front of the building is a brickwork collonade of arches and 
a tile showing the date of foundation with a gargoyle face 
surmounting it.

Jealous?  I couldn't resist boasting.

Beyond belief.
