The hardest bit will be to the equator;

Is that the big chest you hang your medals on (if you win any!)
No, thigh muscles. No medals for me!

I know. The sad part was - I was over the hard part, except for one big hill, when legs said "enough".

We walked around Rotoaira, which is, admittedly, a lot smaller...

Hi Sav
For one so humble I did not expect you to also be a flat earther, I thought they died out with the dodo bird............


Dave
Dave, we're too humble to die out. Besides, one doesn't have to be stupid to be humble. It helps but it's not a requirement.

I would've almost fallen for that, had I not spotted the Indian Ocean's 'N' being suspiciously absent ...
I know. But at least he got the shape of the Earth right.

That map can't be correct, it shows NASA Land.
They have hacked our servers, obviously, desperately trying to make flat earthers look silly.

Oh, how miserably they fail!

It is also the first (and often only) Finnish word every Norwegian learns. Proof of the good relation between us

Very interesting. I wonder if they have routines, jobs and the like, or if they just stand around.
Probably bored to death.

That's still a pretty decent walk. I'm told there's good fishing in Rotoaira, but have not fished that lake.

Metric system. 100 miles = 160km.
QuoteOriginally posted by Racer X 69 Quote
Mark's math was flawless.
Not quite.

Assuming that Mark is talking about the English statute mile as defined in 1593, 100 miles = 160.934 km.

"A Mile shall contain eight Furlongs, every Furlong forty Poles, and every Pole shall contain sixteen Foot and an half."

Just trying to wrestle some nerdy pedantry away from Bert
