    Well I managed a whole week back in the country and now off to Finland for a week for work. Just on the Norwegian airways flight to Helsinki and noticed they had free wifi on the plane so thought I'd try it out and yup it works ;)

    Well it's all a bit hush hush but a certain very large online company is building the worlds biggest data centre in Finland and my company is fitting it out with all the comms links.

    I am mostly a network designer and fibre optic specialist and have agreed to come here for a week to help them get things on track for a major milestone. I've realised I don't wanna do too much to help or I could spend a lot of time over here for the next two years.

    I've been equipped with a very special Corsa 1.2 for my sins thanks to the rental company lol
