    Just looking through my computer room window this lunch time , I was amazed at the height of the sun ! From just barely clearing the house opposite in late December, it is now at an angle of approx 30° :dbgrtmb: I tried to find a web page that could give me the inclination of the sun at my latitude through the year , without any luck. Does anyone know of one :scratch:

                Nah, that guy is too thin, and Ziggy would have the sence to actually put the plug in the bath, to help it retain moisture :sofa:
