Up for Some down for others! & our busy social calendar

The by election triggered  by the defection of Mark Reckless from the Cons. to UKIP has worked out nicely for him as he wins it, so he's on the "up" .  Undisguised pleasure on the face of Farage in the pic - - - lets hope he is similarly jubilant at the next "real election" - - -


However Emily Thornberry has a touch of Foot in mouth disease when she posted a pic of a house with three English flags draped on it and a "white van" parked outside with a title of "image of Rochester" - - - the owner of the house branded her a snob as the backlash forced her resignation from the post of Shadow attorney general. - - - so she's definitely on the "down"

 Unbelievable might just describe the billions of dollars spent on this oil field project in which a whole host of heads should have already "rolled" .
8 years behind schedule $30 billion over budget and problems have caused it not to produce any more oil until "at least" 2016! - - - maybe we will send them some funds! - - -

A Russian based website  is streaming 500 IP webcams from the UK although there's mention of another 250 countries which it also streams cams from.

The main route in for this site is when people do not realise that if the "admin" user on a webcam has no password or it is easy to guess anyone with a little knowledge can hack into them.  One of the largest manufacturers of IP cams is FOSCAM and it appears their cams ship with "admin" as the user and "No password" as the default.  The story does mention that FOSCAM have already changed their software to make the user put in a password before it can be used online - - -


I finally get a clear view from the end of the stand of tree's i have been clearing all year although there is still work to do felling the smaller stuff at top left in the pic

Its a trip to see No 1 daughter (the elder) tomorrow to help reduce some of her felled,  "monster tree" from the garden to firewood, while No 1 daughter (the younger) starts a new job next Monday and we visit Sally's "big sis" to fell some of her garden trees - - - tsk tsk! such a busy social calendar lol!
The early stats make it look a little chilly and damp
while the weathercam shows just a little mist in the valley and with Metcheck predicting quite a bit of rain to hit us today! - - -
I've added a bit of a "bird table" to the feeders and this Nuthatch just visited

Enjoy the day
