Espionage Is A Serious Business

Spy's job in London could never be easier. Apart from frequenting sushi joints you would only need to pick up laptops with sensitive data right from the café tables and park benches.

UK Ministry of Defence admits that it has had 747 laptops and 121 USB sticks gone missing since 2004. There is a possibility that MoD employees only meant well and were sowing computers around in the hope that they will sprout an give a harvest of even more computers but such benign intentions still do not make them appear any smarter.

I figure that if you want easy money these days, just go on the KGB's payroll and have yourself sent to London. Life on the Thames' shores will be a beach!
