I can only guess what a castle loophole is , but I really like this photo. I find it quite exciting. For both, what it shows and what it leaves to our imaginations. Fav
@mbrutus loophole is the translation that I found for feritoia, the slit in a castle’s wall from which to shoot without being exposed to view. Still true, although in a metaphoric way. But you don’t have medieval castles in Southern California…
@caterina Not many. Just the one at Disneyland. Here, loophole is more commonly used to indicate a hole in the law or regulations which allow people to use a technicality to avoid the true intent of the law or regulations. It could be that the original meaning was a hole in the castle wall that allows one to fire at the enemy with minimal exposure to return fire.
@redandwhite@robz Thank you very much for your comments. They were less dangerous at that time with their arrows and stone cannon balls. No nuclear menace then
