The promised snow has come, I'm currently looking out onto a whitish landscape with only the paths clear at present. It's going to be cold until about Thursday, where it will be back to being warmish.
PSYCLE update.
I know this will precisely bother no one in particular but there is a new version of Psycle out. For those wondering, its a modular sound-tracker program you can think of it as the son of Renoise and Buzz. Although not as popular.
At present, its a small upgrade and there is a concerted effort, if you look at the code on sourceforge, to port this to C and give it a sort of update. You'll need to compile it yourself at present and relies on some present Psycle libraries installed, so perhaps not ready yet, but if it gets more user friendlier, its one to watch.
Danger on the Diamond.
Currently working through this. It's notable for being the last ever UK mainline series Hardy boys book. It sees the lads thrown into a case when they sign up for a baseball course during summer holidays.
This is one of those books we could have done without, baseball still isn't popular here in the UK, and it's more common to link it with a balaclava than pitcher's mitt. We got a few of the later casefiles series much later (have a couple of those) but for all intents and purposes this is the end of the line. Didn't even make it to 88.
The only other thing notable is that it casts Tony Prito, son and heir to his dad's construction company and straight up solid guy, into a prankster, a slot usually taken by Chet Morton.
We're going great guns with this and will be done by next Sunday's post, so prepare.
