Security Briefings – November 26th

Good morning!

I may have actually lost it just prior to posting this. I cannot be held responsible for the content of this edition. It’s Dave’s fault, he gave me the password.

To the Americans – I sincerely hope you have a peaceful long holiday weekend with a combination of laughter, gratitude and a good night’s sleep or two.

Warm Regards,

The Intern
