Clocktower
This area was closed off for a bit, but we managed to open it up and add a few more rooms and doors. Or at least planning to! This will hopefully be a club/organization area since it leads to the pitch, owlery, dueling room (in process) and the courtyard could be where kids play Gobstones at (also in process).
The animations here are pretty fun to watch when you're aimlessly idling around after role play <3

I've been getting people IMing me asking me how H:YS has been since me and a group of amazing new friends have taken over December of 2011. I've never got quite the time to sit back and actually look at the work that we've done or the new additions that we've made, but tonight I wanted to take some time off and snap a few shots of them to share with you guys.
We've basically expanded the work done by Hoggy, Light and Jin -- 3 architects who we can't thank enough of. Each of the classrooms have their own interior design now, some new areas have been erected as well as dorms. However, with that in mind, we're still a brand new sim and have a ton to learn and grow from, but our doors are always open to those who love JK Rowling and the world she has created.
A huge thanks to Corwin, Soapie, Jazzy, Juniper and Elidon for being a great admin team to work with. Corwin especially who has kept me sane in times when I feel slightly high on caffeine. The ALOs for their constant hard work on application, the RPDs, Prefects and Professors who have contributed so much ideas and joy to the sim. And finally and most importantly to the members who constantly keep us alive and enjoying what we do. H:YS has been a side of SL I never explored before, and it's taught me a great deal number of things and ventured me off to scripting and building -- things I dabbled with but never seriously done. OH and how can I forget Sue, who's constantly on Skype hearing me moan and groan and scream and wriggle.
So enough blabbing and back to work for me! But I hope we'll hold an OOC preview soon so people can come on in and explore the new areas. Thanks for reading the rambling or looking at the pictures, we hope to keep expanding this place to its fullest potential!
The Jubilee Clocktower, the Esplanade, Weymouth, Dorset. Built in 1887 to mark Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee.
A Manchester landmark that has for long appealed to me, looming over Oxford Road Station. Between 1895 and 1987, the terracotta building was the headquarters of the Refuge Assurance Company, the work of architect Alfred Waterhouse, with later additions being provided by his son, Paul. The building is Grade II*-listed. After Refuge vacated the site, the building was transformed into a luxury hotel, initially branded as a Meridien establishment. Since 2017, the building has been known as the Kimpton Clocktower Hotel.

Victorian Gothic in style, but dating from 1908 to commemorate the coronation of King Edward VII six years earlier, Surbiton’s charming clock tower stands at the junction of The Crescent and Claremont Road, a few minutes’ walk from Surbiton station. It’s design is attributed to John Johnson. It is Grade II Listed.

The iconic clock tower of The Buttercross in Ludlow.
Standing at the heart of the town, the Buttercross is a Grade I listed building and a classic piece of Ludlow's history. I love the contrast here between the weathered stone, the gold leaf on the weather vane, and that piercingly clear blue Shropshire sky.

Main St, Bushmills, County Antrim, Northern Ireland
Bushmills is a village on the north coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Bushmills had a population of 1,247 in the 2021 Census. It is located 60 miles from Belfast, 11 miles from Ballycastle and 9 miles from Coleraine. The village owes its name to the River Bush and to a large watermill that was built there in the early 17th century.

Hubertusburg is a Rococo palace in Saxony, Germany. It was built from 1721 onwards at the behest of Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony and King of Poland, and after his death served as a residence of his son Augustus III. The 'Saxon Versailles' is chiefly known for the signing of the 1763 Treaty of Hubertusburg that ended the Seven Years' War. The palace is located in the municipality of Wermsdorf near Oschatz.

Nearly a year to the day since we were last in Palmerston North, we were here again.
