Music and Llamas
Over the weekend I managed to go to Chester and pick up a few things. While I was there I had some HMV tokens from Christmas so I poped in to the HMV. after half an hour or so I came out with two CD's - A Momentary Lapse of Reason by Pink Floyd, and Give 'Em Enough Rope by The Clash.

Both are great albums, differing styles. AMLoR is the first post-Waters Pink Floyd album I've heard, and it's weird as one might expect, but maybe slightly more grown up than their earlier albums, though I think I prefer Pink Floyd with Waters despite the fact he's an arrogent son of a gun.
The Clash are as punkish as ever, but retain their quirks, and I think have pulled off a great song in "English Civil War".

I've started looking into the Perl language, it's damn interesting and I see it being much more powerful to use than BASh. Larry Wall has made Perl a hard languge to learn, but a easy one to use once learnt, so I'm sure the work I'm doing on it will pay off. Though I must learn C also sometime...

If you can borrow a copy of "Learning Perl", your Perl learning should be about as easy as it can get.
I got a copy of "Lerning Perl" after my exams, and it is indeed well written, and easy to follow.
you should get Super Black Market Clash
I'll look into it andy.
