	I love this... "A luxury toilet controlled by a smartphone app is vulnerable to attack, according to security experts." Apparently the Japanese (where else?) toilet, which includes various functions, is controlled via bluetooth and because of a hardware problem can be operated by anybody close enough. "Attackers could [also] cause the unit to unexpectedly open/close the lid, activate bidet or air-dry functions, causing discomfort or distress to [the] user." My favourite quote is: "it's hard to imagine how serious hardened cybercriminals would be interested in this security hole". Somebody could be in the doings. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-23575249 I'm off to find a loo and have some fun now.

	Researching: I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"
