British Standard for Data Protection
In amongst Yokel's junk mail today was a publication extolling the
virtues of BS10012:2009 as "the first standard for Data Protection.
Specification for a personal information management system".
Yokel wonders whether we need to have a special collection for HMG to
enable them to buy a copy. We know that there isn't any dosh left in the
Treasury after Gordon and Alistair have been naughty boys and pissed it
all up the bankers' wall.
A quick visit to the BSI
web site tells us that it will cost non-members a cool £100 (half
price for members). So the gift of a copy to HMG shouldn't make too much
of a dent in the average citizen's purchase programme for piano wire and
hemp rope.

NOT SO NEW! - Branch Office!
Yokel's recent venture to publlish at points further East has raised quite a few problems on the updating front. It has therefore been put on the back burner for the time being. Existing content at
http://yokel.mail15.su will remain, but will not be updated for the time being.

About Yokel
English born and bred, but now an outsider in this "Land Fit for Heros" that his parent's generation fought and died for.
Frustrated that no-one can seem to change the long term goals of our rulers!
This fine figure of a man could be my Great Uncle Yokel. The picture was found in East Anglia where the likeness had been prepared by Barré Funnell, and realised by Anne Funnell.
He could even have been the English Yokel who is reported to have said: "Sometimes I sits and thinks, but mostly I just sits" .
