Did the ever find out exactly how the fire was started and by whom?

Last I checked they were still pretending they didn't know.

So they rejected my idea of a mini-roller coaster on the roof as being less sacrilegious than the other ideas suggested, including a interfaith minaret being added.

“She went on to say that it is, ultimately, “the President (Emmanuel Macron) who will decide.”

Why would Macron get to ‘decide’.

I have done some serious mortise and tenon. Never knew a suit could carry such weight. I have built things since I was a youngster. Hobby mostly.

Of course, a goof in a suit wants to tell you how, where and when....

They’ll try and get it as close as possible because you’re taking something built by artisans over a nearly 200 year period, and was completed 675 years ago that is going to be rebuilt by ordinary builders using modern materials.
