IRCC II - Aaaack!

Went to bed last night "OK, the clock is ticking down. 10 hours to go!"

Woke up this morning "But it's IRCC II Start Day! You can't lay about in bed on IRCC II Start Day!"

Was firmly rebuffed by my Clarence who want's another 15 minutes...

Rushed out to the living room, materials in hand, ready to start on layer #3.

Flipped open my computer to see what people are up to.

And found the counter...still...ticking...away...

2 1/2hours! What do you mean there are still 2 1/2 hours to go until IRCC II Start Day!


(Sigh)


It's worse than waiting for Santa!
