I'm relieved that the wordplay was not entirely lost.  I should have known I
could rely on you, Andrew.

When I was at school, we were taken out to measure stuff with chains as one
of those grim mathematical exercises.
  They actually had surveyor's chains as in - "What can we do today?  
I know! It's raining. Let's get them to lug heavy chains all over the sports
fields."
Later we used a theodolite to make a half-inch contour map of the front
lawns, also in the rain.
They seemed to believe in building character through a damn good soaking.
