Yes really. Despite being the kind of person who works every weekend, and is puzzled by other people not doing so, I am occasionally persuaded to leave my home-office and go see parts of the world. I don&#8217;t do it *that much* mostly because of the &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.positech.co.uk\/cliffsblog\/2018\/07\/09\/an-open-letter-to-my-liberal-friends\/\">not wanting to do too much flying<\/a>&#8216; thing, so if I *do* actually fly somewhere, I do try to make the most of it. I&#8217;m also completely paranoid about being away from my business for any length of time, so I&#8217;m a bit of a nightmare person to arrange holidays with<\/p>\n<p>Anyway&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I am heading far away to the land of ice bears and where the dust comes from, or something like that. I&#8217;m told there are bears, and glaciers, and a friend I&#8217;m meeting up with assures me there is good sushi. It probably looks like this:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5057\" src=\"https:\/\/www.positech.co.uk\/cliffsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/icebears-680x244.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.positech.co.uk\/cliffsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/icebears.png 680w, https:\/\/www.positech.co.uk\/cliffsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/icebears-317x114.png 317w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be heading off tomorrow morning, and back on the 7th of August, which is a scarily long time for me. I&#8217;ll be checking email occasionally but apparently interference from the ice bears and the dust means there isn&#8217;t much in the way of wifi.<\/p>\n<p>I hope that I&#8217;m leaving Production Line in a pretty good state for 2 weeks. I just finished fixing a whole host of crash bugs, and got really good feedback about it. I have a price-GUI change that I&#8217;m going to quadruple-check later today and maybe make live on the steam build before I go, as its a pretty minor (but aesthetically much needed) change. While I&#8217;m away I am hoping to switch off a bit from work, I have two BIG books to read, and I&#8217;m reading both with my wife so I cant get lazy and not finish them. I will doubtless still worry about unanswered emails and unanswered tech support requests on my forums and on steam. Early Access customers can (rightly) be concerned that a game has been &#8216;abandoned&#8217;. (It really hasn&#8217;t :D).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll also probably worry a lot about some green energy investment thing that is causing me *distress*. Hopefully the ice bears will teach me how to relax.<\/p>\n<p>My <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cliffski\/\">twitter account<\/a> for the next two weeks will mostly be pictures of ice, and bears.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am going away.
