Beneath an Irish Sky

We returned from a trip to see the in-laws in Ireland yesterday. Just a short trip, long enough to unwind nicely in the countryside.

While over there I spend a while playing around on my laptop and got distracted from the more serious business of learning to program in Perl by Beneath a Steel Sky, an old graphical adventure game ported to run under Linux via SCUMM VM. This is quite an engaging little game, which I think I am approaching the end of. I worry that this endangers my credentials as someone who shies away from computer games more involved than Freecell or Shisen-Sho.
