The weather has been horrid... for years now but more specifically this week. The points for the new layout
in harbour station were delivered this Thursday and me and the camera were there to record the event and the freezing rain.
Each pair of points came in two parts and were craned off as you can see above. The first set to arrive was the WHR loop point and the second is the king point which will select between the WHR platform and the FR one, this second unit is much longer as FR trains will need to go over it at line speed. I'll put together a package on the work so far next week when I've got some footage of the installed points.
With the snow forecast for today I decided that another day in the studio made sense so that's what I've done. I pretty much finished the programming for the WHR card music despite the temperature in the studio starting at 3 Celcius this morning. The edit of the video is now the correct length and the music fitted nicely, but there are still a few musical phrases that need re-programming to tidy them up. By 4pm when I finished it had crept up to a tropical 10. I spent the day in jumper and coat. Adding some guitar parts is the next stage but my fingers were numb so my usually poor playing was pitiful so I gave up on that idea.

Freezing my tits off
Snowing outside the window
Always sunny on telly
The new drum machine sounds great and the Akai it is replacing is now listed on eBay, shame to get rid of it but I need the cash.
