W.I.P - A country house and a failed hard disk!

Hi everyone!

I apologize for my absence these past few weeks, but my laptop's hard disk has failed me...completely!
However, I was lucky, because my laptop is made from Dell, and Dell's customer service is the BEST! And I mean it. The guys are simply the best professionals I have dealt with (and trust me, even though I am a polite person, I wouldn't say that if this wasn't the case). They changed it (I managed to save some of my files) in no time! 
If you want to buy a new computer, buy a Dell (and no, I don't take any money from them). :-)

In our subject now, I haven't stayed idle during these days, as you will see in the photo below. I am struggling to make a country house (made from stone). A rather difficult task, since everything is made from foamcore, embossed card and other materials I haven't worked with so far.



So, stay tuned, cause I am going to pest you with new posts in the forthcoming future. I have a new hard disk!! :-)

Cheers everyone!
T.

    damned hard-drives!! it's always a problem which could happen, and unfortunately, we don't think (or take the time!) to save our files in an external one!
    Looking forward at your new project...

    Good to have you back. I know the problems with computers as I'm still working on a very second hand mac. My pal has an 18 month old Dell he wants to get rid of and I'm looking forward to getting it. Then I too can get back into some serious blogging again.

    You sure were lucky with those few files you saved! Always remember to have a backup, because it can happen to anyone, anytime. The house looks great. and I am curious to see how it comes out.

    Bad luck with the hard disk, but glad Dell were on the ball with their support. Having a back-up is so important (as I learnt when my last mac died and I hadn't backed up for months!)

    That Country House is looking very impressive so far, I can't wait to see it finished!
