Spooky ...

Earlier this month I was part of a Guinness Book of Records bid, driving a route through North Wales that was to become a small section of a much bigger picture. The Vauxhall Corsa launch test route used roads specially chosen to be plotted on GPS and included in a 6,080 miles 'driven drawing' across Britain.

Today the result is revealed. This is the spooky image, which I have doctored to brighten it for blip. More than 264,000 positions were recorded on a GPS receiver, then linked together into a kind of virtual dot-to-dot drawing, using mainland Britain as a giant canvas.

The project took 44 days to achieve, and is principally the work of US-born GPS artist Jeremy Wood. No, I didn't know of the existence of GPS art either, before being enlightened by Vauxhall.

The previous 'World's largest GPS drawing' was 4,500 miles, so this one beats it by some margin. I feel proud to have contributed to it, and what a great way to mark October 31st.

Happy Halloween everyone!
