This is around 170 hours. You can clearly see the impact of working by shape - the 4 quadrants are almost identical.

Making life easier ...but making lots of muck first
The hard frost mitigates the muckiness and I am grateful for that but it will be very temporary. The trick would be to work out how to keep dogs paws out of it.
For the 125 pictures in 2025 group: number 79. Progress
I made my annual trip to London in November, as ever, the only bloke in a coach full of woman. I think it’s my 16th year now. A fund-raising trip in aid of Slaithwaite Brass Band it started as a one day trip and eleven years ago we started to stay overnight Sat/Sun at The Cumberland Hotel at Marble Arch, a superb central location. Leaving at seven we are usually at the hotel for 11.45 subject to traffic. We usually have really good weather, this year though Saturday was really wet, I was probably the only person on the trip who wasn’t bothered, having made the trip so many times I was looking forward to getting photos on the busy streets in the wet, all reflections and umbrellas, something different for a change. I headed off with my camera and backpack as soon as we got there. Currently struggling with a damaged ankle, I tried to keep the kit to a minimum and in the end, I decided to stick with my 16-35mm lens all weekend. I started with the Selfridges Christmas window display and worked my way to Piccadilly, making sure I found a licensed café for late lunch and a glass of wine (two actually) I was meeting my daughters and two of their friends to take them out later so I was working to a bit of an agenda.
After eating Italian, we popped along to the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park only to find that they stopped serving food and drink at 10.00pm-it was the drink that we were after needless to say so we went back to the City of Quebec pub near the hotel. We were directed to the night club downstairs. Having been upstairs many times we had no idea the Quebec was a gay pub- we soon realised when we got downstairs. We had a good laugh and a drink or two and made it in before midnight.
I checked out loaded up with a beautiful breakfast at 8.15 on Sunday. It had dried up and was a glorious sunny day, a complete contrast to Saturday. I felt like I had London to myself for a while and made good progress, I made it to Covent Garden by 9.15. I walked through Seven Dials, Theatreland, Chinatown, St Pauls, crossed the Thames and down to Tower Bridge. I covered about ten Miles each day and took around 800 shots, mostly in the rain on Saturday.
I was father Christmas again on the way home, we all buy a mystery present and I get the job of going around the coach distributing them, there’s some serious drinking on the way home so things can get a bit boisterous at the back of the coach. We left at 3.15, had an overlong break at Tibshelf services and we were back in Slaithwaite for 8.30. A few of us dragged our bags to The Little Bridge wine bar for another latish night, followed by an early start for me unfortunately.
The long road to development is accompanied by these nude Pillars of Progress. The lone auto rides amidst dust, where trees and forests once stood!

The MV Vectis Progress is a general cargo vessel built in 2012 and operated by Carisbrooke Shipping under the Isle of Man flag. Measuring nearly 124 meters in length, it features two 80-ton cranes and can carry up to 484 containers, offering flexible cargo handling capabilities across a wide range of ports and conditions.
A key feature of the vessel is its ice-class 1A certification, allowing it to safely navigate ice-covered waters.
Progress of the eclipse. The first six pictures are spaced roughly ten minutes apart. The last six cover a total period of about 7 minutes. The penultimate one shows the moment of annularity, and the last one is (fairly) close to center.
Making more progress on the bike. I finally got around to harvesting the CL pipes off of the parts bike and fitting the short mufflers to them. I think it looks good.
Cat-Mai - Mai with the Catwa Magy head - is well on her way to becoming a character your Mai could live with as an avatar (because, though you found her beautiful sweetie, your wife couldn't make a 'habit' of the embryonic Cat-Mai as she looks in those 'Dancing Zen' pictures).
Here Cat-Mai is born again with some modified facial proportions, most noticeably her mouth and lips, which are now literally Golden (ie. PHI = 1:1.618 = 62% on the SL Lip Ratio slider), a move that does give her face a je ne sais quoi in your Mai's eyes and renders her attractive enough now to 'live with' more than just now and then. If you like her, love, I can 'be' Cat-Mai more often.
Cat-Mai is showing off the Analexa small-breasted body, with a slimmer shape than even Slink-Mai used to wear. And she's been given a new LAQ skin (Natasha) which sets off her nose and mouth a bit more than the Camille skin Slink-Mai and MaiChai wear.
Hope you like her and these pics which really got me going on the Black & White and F-S conversions! For some reason they do this particular face more justice than plain colour does - whether that's a good sign I'm not quite sure. ♥X
We use to look out onto open fields at the back of our house, not anymore, progress means we'll be able to look at 600 houses in our back yard.
A bit of progress this winter season 2020. The station and it's yard tracks have been completed. Also solved some annoying bottlenecks in the trackplan, and changed the access and exit tracks of the hidden yard. Decided not to run the trains full automatic DCC (programmed), but 'by hand' only. The points will be DCC automated. Time to make a start with the scenery I suppose.
The first section of roof removed. There was some gooey tar down near the gutter that Scott is working on removing...
The Carousel of Progress is an attraction located in Tomorrowland at the Magic Kingdom Park at the Walt Disney World Resort, currently operating under the name, Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress. Created by both Walt Disney and the Imagineers of WED Enterprises as the prime feature of the General Electric Pavilion for the 1964 New York World's Fair, the attraction was moved to Tomorrowland at Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, remaining there from 1967 until 1973. It was replaced in Disneyland by America Sings in 1974, and reopened in its present home in Walt Disney World Resort's Magic Kingdom in 1975.
Steeped in both nostalgia and futurism, the attraction's premise is an exploration of the joys of living through the advent of electricity and other technological advances during the 20th century via a "typical" American family. To keep it up with the times, the attraction has been updated five times (in 1967, 1975, 1981, 1985, and 1994) and has had two different theme songs, both written by the Sherman Brothers (Disney's Academy Award-winning songwriting team).
Various sources say Walt Disney himself proclaimed that the Carousel of Progress was his favorite attraction and that it should never cease operation. This can be somewhat supported by Imagineers, family and friends, who knew of his constant work on the attraction. Of all the attractions he presented at the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair, Disney seemed especially devoted to the Carousel of Progress.
The Carousel of Progress holds the record as the longest-running stage show, with the most performances, in the history of American theater
