married at first sight season 2 episode 4

Clarke and Melissa honeymoon in Ibiza

They spend it getting to know each other

Melissa was vegan Adam decided not to eat meat whilst on honeymoon. Adam seemed more smitten than Melissa

With regards to the honeymoon they seemed to have got on the best out of all couples

 

Adam and Sara were the most compatible couple according to the science

She was single 18 months since returning from Australia

They honeymoon in Siena in Italy

Adam’s true love before getting married was football, he took her to see an England game whilst on honeymoon. Even though her initial reservations that he was not the sort of guy she would be attracted to after they got married that seemed to change at the start of their honeymoon until he took her to watch the England game. She once again expressed her doubts

They have a slight disagreement over his untidiness

She finds him quite laddish

They argue on a day at a couple of vineyards he drinks a fair amount and that does not go down well with her. She effectively tells him no more wine he finds her too serious. One wonders if his laddish behavior was because he had already got fed up with her

 

Adam and Caroline seemed like the most matched couple when they married. Their honeymoon is in Switzerland.

Caroline was single for 18 months and had a serious of long time partners Adam had been single for 5 years and only had one serious relationship

Caroline is very forthright and got moody after Adam forgot to order breakfast. She came across as a right bitch, he did not seem too perturbed and was laid back about it

 

Steve and Lucie honeymoon in Montenegro at the bay of Kotor

Steve was single for 2 years and Lucie for 5 years . They seem to get along well

They do seem to get along but he is not very open. Lucie finds that an issue as she is insecure

 

The next episode is decision time the couples after living together for at least for weeks will decide whether they will stay together if they have not already separated.

I think only Clarke and Melissa look to stay together; Adam and Caroline might. I doubt that Adam and Sara will make the 4 weeks.

America Decides

After what seems an election process that has lasted forever polling day has finally arrived in the USA. What ever the outcome the result will be signifcant i that if its Clinton she will be the first ever US female president, if Trump he will be the first president since eisenhower to enter office with no political experience.

The whole election hangs on a handful of key swing states with Clinton a couple of points ahead. Neither candidate appears to be setting the world alight and there are probably more cons than pros of both.

The election is being dubbed the US Brexit

Britain will be watching closely as the candidate that wins could decide on any potential trade deal arrangement once British Brexit occurs.

 

Magnus Carlsen being hacked?

Magnus Carlsen the reigning Chess World Champion has called in Microsoft security experts to ensure he is not hacked ahead of his forth coming World Championship match with Sergey Karjakin. It is reported that Magnus has spent the past few months perfecting his strategy using highly powerful computers and is concerned his analysis could be compromised.

Only recently Microsoft blamed a hacking group previously linked to the Russian government for recent cyber attacks that exploited a newly discovered Windows security flaw. Recent attacks using a technique called spear phishing is thought to have been behind the compromise of the WADA database and subsequent publication of Athlete theraputic use exemption (TUES) records.

Tesco Bank have confirmed that all monies taken will be refunded by close of Tuesday 8th. Why it is taking so long is not clear. It is currently not known how much money was fraudulently taken from customers accounts.

At present tesco customers are only able to make cash withdrawals and payments via chip and pin with direct debits unaffected.
