I will be working on the plane tomorrow – I am not sure that building is the right word. Richard and I will be doing preparation work for painting sometime over the weekend. It will not be fun, but it must be done. The fun things are what happens after that.

This is Really Cool… AndreaPlanet has produced a gigapixel image of Van Gogh’s Starry Night. It is actually a photo-mosaic of 210,000 individual photos, and you can zoom in on them on the website above. You actually have to wait for the images to download, but it is really cool.

And something else… A guy has built a heater for his pool using a BBQ. Rather a cute idea I think… I just love it. It is probably a bit expensive to run 24×7 but is nice for special occasions. Nice idea.

There was a report in the paper today saying that this weekend is actually the middle of winter, statistically. There is about a two week delay after the solstice until things start warming up again.
