    What a carry on. Sounds interesting what you have been up to ! Take that fat pay offer :D

    Talking of cuber policies I went to a local seminar - amazing lineup, only cost £25 and the boss wouldn't pay for it so paid it myself and went. They even had the head of cyber security at Cisco systems there - and the boss didn't think it was worth spending £25 to go and hear him speak !!

    I think it was AIG that presented their cyber policy. Amazing. They said they would take care of the media, they would run their own team of IT experts and handle the whole thing - for a sliding scale premium. Where do we sign was my reaction.

    They said if something happens - stop right there as you will likely only make things worse trying to poke around. Everybody stop and call them. Amazing response - but nobody at work was even slightly interested.

    First thing I did with my new computer was put some anti virus on it. The book "The Cuckoo's Egg was written in 1989 - and that is what was going on even then :eek:.

    Its about time - with the various teams bikes coming out for use and getting promotional exposure, Honda around the world must get these Triple-Rs into customers hands or they are about to fuck up yet another Fireblade launch model year.

    Forecast is showing light rain in afternoon, however we're still in lockdown here in Wales so only 5 mileish ride out only :-(
