In the round tower's in the earliest monasteries here the steps are deliberately different heights so the monks could memorise the steps to climb quicker than the attackers ..
...or they didn't use a ruler?
If I don my pedants’ hat for a moment, I think you mean a rule.
I was taught a rule measures/gauges things and a ruler is a monarch, but I think it may be because one of my engineering tutors might have been a Guinness.
I’ve taken the hat off now.
As a rule I use a tape measure.
My teachers ruled with a ruler.

I’ve got a 12” dick, but I don’t use it as a rule.
Since 421 AD, Venice has stood on millions of tree trunks stuck into the clay bottom of the lagoon. Not steel or concrete, but mostly alder, with a few oaks, support the entire city.
In the salt water, these wooden pillars have petrified over time, becoming as hard as stone. St. Mark's Campanile alone stands on 100,000 piles, while the majestic Basilica della Salute required over a million trunks. The ancient builders beat these trees into the seabed, creating a veritable submerged forest.
This unique structure extends up to three meters deep, with piles spaced just half a meter apart. At 1.6 meters below the waterline, this extraordinary feat of medieval engineering continues, after 1,500 years, to support one of the most fascinating cities in the world.

3 meters? AI seems to have drawn them at well over 100 metersSince 421 AD, Venice has stood on millions of tree trunks stuck into the clay bottom of the lagoon. Not steel or concrete, but mostly alder, with a few oaks, support the entire city.

I have followed him for a while too.Amazes me how he does it but fair play to him, been subscribed to his channel for years, this is his latest task!!
Absolutely unbelieveable how he can do something like that. What gets me is that he quite often asks for a dessert, having finished something like that. Not only that, there’s not a spare ounce of flesh on him.
If that was me, I would be the size of a house. Either that or bulimia central !
Bugs and spiders are not welcome in our house, as per the lady of the house. I am always the one dispatched to deal with the tiny terrors.I never like to kill spiders especially by accident, loving this!!
They don’t bother me but since I must deal with them, then I thought I might as well do it in a way that makes it less of a chore…

I remember when i lived in a house loft conversion, lovely pad with Velux windows. I was watching tv and this buzzing noise like a fucking chainsaw came in!! It was one of the biggest hornets i have ever seen, it landed on the floor and i had bug repellant spray mainly for fucking ladybirds( long story ). I sprayed the hornet and the fucking thing just started cleaning itself off the smug Guinness!! It took off and flew out the window tf!!Bugs and spiders are not welcome in our house, as per the lady of the house. I am always the one dispatched to deal with the tiny terrors.
