The Grenwich one is bronze.
Bronze just doesn't float very well.

I hope your day improves. There is much State of Collapse at my house this morning. We’re still waiting for Kathleen to go ...
Good morning, Undeaders.
It was a rough night. I had a very hard time falling asleep, and it was well into the wee hours before I did so.
This morning, I feel hung over because of it.
Most of the night was spent worrying about the truck and wondering how long it will take to get it fixed. I really need it, because I have several medical appointments coming up in the next few weeks.
I need to call the guy and find out if he is going to take it to really look at it, or if I have to find an overpaid mechanic. Either way, it has to be soon.
I have trouble even remembering all the things I’m too anxious about!
Suddenly the news is making me feel queasy. I’m going to find Pat and have him do math.
I’m heading off for work. Sorry about the language.
You’re excused.
LOL, that explains it.
I’m having a cup of coffee for the first time in almost a week.
The things I’m anxious about just keep coming, one by one, in a steady stream. The first of course, is the truck. I really need to get it fixed. It would be nice if it could be fixed just for the cost of parts, but I can’t wait too much longer for the guy to take it and check it out.
I was going to go to Walmart, but then I recalled that I have to go after 0900 for another prescription. *sigh* The truck runs worse in the heat.
The news has been making me queasy for a while, now. So I try not to read anything except the UT.
Thulsa Doom he is.

That’s the International Date Line, right? Enquiring minds want to know.
That leads us to the intersect of the Greenwich Meridian and the Equator or point zero, 0° longitude 0° latitude.
The view from Point Zero.
Intl. Waters : Atlantic Ocean
in the Gulf of Guinea,
Atlantic Ocean,
Intl. Waters
(direction of view unidentified at source site)
It is indeed.
The source of all calendars.
It is kept here for safety.
It used to wonder around of its own free will, Philias Fog even took it on a road trip.
The world can sleep easy at night knowing the date line is in good hands.
:)
Wow, what a view!
(I can think of a candidate to become first _resident of Zero Land.)
Perfect site for Zero, dark clouds and stormy sea.
Note: I refrained from using, wine dark sea. That would be racist.
I still need to make the Grand Tour of the British Isles...for a couple of years. :o]
LoL.
Mustn’t hurt the delicate little petals’ feelings, now.
Concrete boots and All Hail Mr resident!
A proper Grand tour would take many years, even the crowned Queen hasn’t finished it yet.
I’ll warn Axminster: Get the red carpet on the loom!
Visit Loch Ness and see if the grand beasty makes an appearance in the lake...
...my luck it would know my name.
