Stop in for a cup of coffee

As a sidestep from cars, here is a link to the building of a brand new Viking ship. About 98 American feet long, or 95 Norwegian feet long. The Norwegian inch is a little longer than the British / American. Norway exported timber to England in the old days, and the Englishmen complained about the boards being under size. Norway had cut them right but when drying it shrunk. So, they came up with the solution of making the inch a little bigger. Just so the dried boards had the right size when it arrived in England.

Many pics, and some video.
