Came across this rather lovely compilation of vintage wax cylinder Christmas music:

yes the cut-off tracks came like that but still worth a listen. also the last track sounds considerably more modern (perhaps a 78 too?) but it's still nice
not quite truly in New Babbage theme but halfway there ;-)
hope you enjoy!

Apparently I could...
Lack of updates already is baaad, but have been in the building groove lately, still very slow but getting there, Clockhaven build (my first store! well not only *my* store i guess) is taking shape, literally, and will soon be at the tweakin, texturin, more fun? stage.
I deliberately leave texturing til last and perhaps this is a mistake, as it's kinda easy to look at *anything* in ply and feel a little...jaded. I guess there's happy medium (as the saying goes, the one who just stiffed their superstitious audience for 20 quid a seat)
(Remembers to nudge Meadow about signage...Christmas? What's that?)
Anyway over to the Steam Machine soon for something of a potted history of Tyger Freenote. And possibly some mini rants here. Cause I can =P
Saying that, I am NewTyger now and i wonder how many have noticed? ;-)

Old Ass
Need to give these blogs a lick of paint. Much as I like my pic i used here (thanks Meadow!) i've used it for ages now, in SL, in the NB Ning, and now here. Time for something new, time maybe to upload some nice Blog themes here (though i tried that previously with little success) and time to get some flippin PICTURES in these things! Gawd knows i have enough.
Like, Don't Like!
Things I like in SL, and most likely RL, which i will no doubt at some point write about:
Exploring, Building, Creating, Experimenting, Architecture, Art, Countryside, The Sea, Swimming, Flying, Cars, Steampunk, The Surreal, Peace, Non-conformity (there are degrees), Texturing, Gadgets, Accessories, Clothes, Puzzles, Cats, History, Dragons, Lighthouses, Time Machines, Birds, Respect, Open Mindedness, Keeping it as real as possible
Things i don't like so much:
Egotism, Delusions of grandeur, Ignorance, Abuse, Content Theft, Rudeness, Arrogance, Selling RL photos in SL, Selling public domain art works in SL, Cliques, Schmoozing, Pixel vanity

why"& # 39 ;"s that?
Why do apostrophes sometimes get substituted in blog names (perhaps other stuff too) for "& # 39 ; "? Boooooork. Change it, change it back and then it's fixed. Then you notice someone else caught it. It's like some sort of HTML punctuation flu.
PS - I put that in the title and it appeared as an apostrophe just fine. So i put spaces in. HTML is fun!

So What
is this going to be for? Mostly SL musings, observations, the things i love and hate in the grid, reviews of...stuff. More on that next. Some inevitable RL ramblings, where i will no doubt over enthuse about music, movies and sundry other interests and things that have knocked me out. Links, pics, perhaps the odd music mix to download. Et cetera.
Maybe even building and creating tips, nothing complex, just little things i have picked up along the way. Useful stuff to find in SL. Places which affect me (not always positively) across the grid. And perhaps the odd OOC observation regarding New Babbage, but that is less likely. I want this to feel like a positive experience, not a soapbox. I feel i am done with those and need to always take whatever positives i can =)
