The USA election

Today's election of the President in America is a make or break day for the country. As a Mormon, Mitt Romney will have a hard time convincing the Americans (as well as the non voting foreigners) that he is fit for the job. It will be interesting to see, if he wins, whether he will constantly espouse Mormanesque principles to the people. Will he give Starbucks and Las Vegas a hard time, for instance?

A problem with the Swimming Pool

During the Summer I noticed that the water level was descending faster than usual. Normally, with evaporation I only had to top it up fortnightly. But I noticed that I was losing that much in 2 days. I have not stopped the leak yet, but I assume that the egress is occurring through the underwater light assembly. During the Winter I will monitor the level to see to where it descends. The problem with a pool is that the side walls are weakened without water, and there is always a possibility that the structure will collapse.
