Hot Stuff at Reactive and Factors !!!!

Our lunchtime pub retreat the Swan and Royal in Clitheroe went up in flames late Saturday night.
See the articles in the local and national press:

Our office shares an adjoining wall with the pub. So we were called out to allow Fireman Sam and his pals into our office to check the temperature of the walls !!
You know those contingency plans that are fully thought through but never tested - well as from now we can categorically state OURS WORKS.
Shut down the primary server - move the systems to a different server (in a cooler spot) and up-load all the live data from the mirror array - 15 minutes off-line…
Not bad for a group of guys with serious on-going hangovers - well it was Saturday night !!!
