Friday 30th July, 2010 (IANS)
A 75-year-old man in China is building a castle to win back his wife who separated from him 10 years ago.
After living alone in a cottage for the past 10 years, Luo Runqi of Chongqing municipality began building his 'dream castle' in December 2009, the Shanghai Daily reported Friday.
Luo wakes up at 5 a.m. every day, has breakfast and immediately starts work on the house. 'I will give it to my wife as her 70th birthday gift.'
The castle - built in 'European style' - has fireplaces and wine cabinets and the path to the main entrance is like a labyrinth, Luo said.
'I calculated and there would be 40,000 bricks to be laid, I can do about 400 bricks every day,' Luo said.  Email this story to a friend

Awareness
The old man probably come to sense that he did something wrong or didn’t treat the old woman right; he comes to aware of how precious time is, esp with true love. To be love and being with your love is the greatest gift of all. Money can not buy love. The castle he build will not impress her at this age. He should spend quality time with her and get to understand her more.
