I like the basic concept of Steven P's diagram, and following on from other pictures, I wonder if portability is a high priority? Some of them don't look built to be thrown about by a teleporter who's in a rush to get down the pub for a swift one. 🙂 I wonder if Steven's basic design could be adapted to minimise wire usage, at the expense of active drying area? I can't do pretty diagrams, but imagine if a line of his model were created. Basically, just adding three meshes to his first one, ad infinitum? You could then just use one piece of mesh for the back, and you'd still have separate sections. Downsides are it would be a permanent fixture, and less efficient at drying. Just a thought.

Interesting read.

'You can't fatten up a pig on market day' - how Ben Wallace tried (unsuccessfully) to get Zelensky to prepare for a Russian invasion in the November before the invasion. In mid-November, the British defence secretary, Ben Wallace, visited Kyiv and told Zelenskyy London believed a Russian invasion was now a matter of “when”, not “if”. He urged Zelenskyy to start preparing the country for war. “You can’t fatten up a pig on market day,” Wallace told the Ukrainian president, according to a source briefed on the meeting. Zelenskyy appeared to be in passive listening mode A war foretold: how the CIA and MI6 got hold of Putin’s Ukraine plans and why nobody believed them WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Drawing on more than 100 interviews with senior intelligence officials and other insiders in multiple countries, this exclusive account details how the US and Britain uncovered Vladimir...

This one amused me, JD Vance (contender for 'Next POTUS' ?) talking abut the Chinese freestlye skier Gu (Born in California, skies for China) Vance spoke on Tuesday about his stance on athletes born in the U.S. and their international representation in competition. “I certainly think that somebody who grew up in the United States of America, who benefited from our education system, from the freedoms and liberties that make this country a great place, I would hope that they want to compete with the United States of America,” he told Fox News. “So, I’m going to root for American athletes, and I think part of that is people who identify themselves as Americans. That’s who I’m rooting for this Olympics.” ... so it is OK for you to have American birthright if you can achieve but... for those who are not the very top of their game, are still learning, are children of immigrants, off you pop, back to where their parents came from. Double standards much?
