Last night my laptop's hard drive decided to pack up (corrupting itself) and therefore taking its place with the 'faries' as the saying goes. Therefore I have lost all of the work done recently around Hythe and as far back as my last backup. I also have probably lost the armoured train and the wagon I was working on for it, although there is a chance I may have it stored on my external HD or on a CD somewhere, I haven't had chance to look through what I have got.

So, approximately one hour after recieving an offer to finish the scenery we take a huge jump backwards.

I will try and see what I have left over the next few days, and then see where to go from there.

Again, I apologise for the further delay this is causing.

Ben :cry:
Thats bad news Ben, at least you have Saturday to look forward to

Never mind Ben, it could have happened to anyone.

It dosn't matter if it takes a little longer to get the route done. The important thing is that it will be worth waiting for :)

That is one major set back, hope you find the armoured train, it was looking brilliant.

Right, after a couple of hours emergency work on my laptop this evening, my parents have miraculously managed to save my hard drives data, therefore I have backed it all up and I have the latest copies of everything. So nothing has been lost and all is safe.

Lucky or what :)

Ben :D

I always behave, you should know that by now Tim :wink:

The lamps look great, looking forward to seeing them in use on a night run,
BTW how bright are they, ie will you still need the headlight as well? Would look great if you dont need it with them.
