How cool .....

...... or hot is this? Today the plumbers laid the underfloor central heating at la caumette in wonderful swirly patterns worthy of a Zen gardener. They arrived with a plan for each portion of the house and big cardboard boxes each containing 100 metres of blue pipe. Here in France you're not allowed to join two pieces of pipe together (too prone to leaks) so in a big space like the sitting room it took 4 seperate swirly patterns to cover the floor.

It also reminds me of those mad domino world record attempts or a really big Scalextric set.
