New video tomorrow probably!
🕑 Added 2021-07-31 11:06:17 +0000 UTCSome of you might have noticed that there would usually have been a new 4th Dimension video by now and there hasn't been. That's because the day I set aside to edit the video, we had a huge thunderstorm here in Manchester that necessitated an almost full day of having the PC unplugged!
(some call me cautious, but my motherboard's been hit by lightning TWICE if you can believe it. It comes through the broadband line. Our neighbours only lost a router, but I'm on a wired connection and it went all the way in and zapped the PC itself. So yeah, these days it gets unplugged from that and the mains.)
It was a BIG storm by the way. Very close. There was one bit where the thunder made the windows rattle. It turns out that one bolt - probably that one - hit a hospital and the whole place exploded! Or something! Actually it was much less dramatic than that and everyone was fine, but look at the pictures!

So yeah. I was right to power down during that.
Anyway, the video's ready now, it's just a question of finding time when I don't need my PC for anything, so I can render it and upload it, both of which take about as long, for some reason. I did render it overnight last night, but then I noticed I left in a personal detail that I shouldn't so I've got to do it again tonight. Then tomorrow I can upload it, and you'll probably have it then.

I was driving on the motorway during that storm so I understand completely, and also now greet each new day as a beautiful and wondrous thing.
