    A climber and film maker(who obviously has too much time on his hands) has created the most detailed image of Mount Everest ever, made up of a mosaic of hundreds of photographs.

    If you make it full screen, it just looks like a pretty picture of a mountain, it's not until you click on one of the little green boxes and find that it's a base station, that you realise how massive it is. It's quite clever too, if you go to the base station, you can go into a tent where there's pictures of the mountain and you can click on the picture to go back to the start page.

    Hours of endless fun...

    I think you'll find its Chomolungma, not Mount Everest. Thought you'd know that as you've probably got a flat there.....

    Can't use it, I've got Yeti's squatting in it at the moment.

    It's Christmas, we shut at lunchtime tomorrow and things are already winding down.
