More gorgeous weather; I went for a swim first thing and then over to Braehead to buy a blouse that I wanted from Marks and Spencers. I couldn’t buy it online because they suffered a cyber attack on 25th April, nearly three weeks ago, and all of their online shopping is “paused.” Three weeks is a long time for them not to be able to restore services so it must have been a very nasty attack; they must be losing a great deal of money every day. According to news reports the attackers have used “ransomware” which locks out the owner of a computer system and scrambles their data. Then the attackers demand a fee, usually in cryptocurrency, to restore it. After picking up my blouse (and a nice pair of trousers that I spotted) I treated myself to a wee coffee before heading home.
2025 is proving to be a busy year among our family and friends for births and significant birthdays, so I had quite a few presents to wrap, and I tackled this in the back room, with the French windows open to the garden.
I met up with Caroline for an early tea at Tony Mac’s in East Kilbride, it was lovely to see her and we had a good catch up and chat. When I got home at about half past six it was still warm enough to sit outside in the garden!
