Time off - Motorbikes and track days

Roland does have some time off occasionally. Just to prove it, here he is on his bike (or our Nova IT fast response vehicle as its known affectionately when it is chosen over the car) having a bit of fun warming up on a track day.

LogMeIn - Secure Remote Support with internet access

Being a slave driver, I never allow Roland to stop working! Fortunately, using LogMeIn on a desktop, laptop or smartphone, we can access customers computers remotely (with their prior permission of course) and sort out any problems almost immediately! No wasting time waiting for an engineer to turn up in a wrapped car  from another customer the other side of the M25.   An internet connection is all thats needed for IT help at hand. You get help faster, we get more work done in a day.

Nova IT Solutions support customers locally in Medway, Maidstone, Sittingbourne, Canterbury and London as well as Nationwide. We also provide support when work includes travel as far afield as Bermuda, South Africa, Australia, Italy and America using secure remote support.

You can just see the pleasure on Roland's face as he works away happily at lunch at The Grand Hotel in Folkestone, Kent ! :)

Chilham Castle Horse Trials 14th and 15th August 2010

The sponsors lunch with  trifle helped with long walk around the course  to watch the riders ..

and check out one of the fences (no. 17) showing the new frangible pin inserted in the posts....



We had a fantastic weekend as one of the sponsors of Chilham Castle Horse Trials thanks to Tessa and Stuart Wheeler, the owners of Chilham Castle, Ali Ferry and Margaret Butcher (and Tessa) the organisers of the event which included the BE 80 (T) and Novice classes as well as the Dog Show on Sunday! A fun time had by everyone. The course was designed by Scott Brickell who is involved in the 2012 cross country course design and construction at the London Olympics. The two days at Chilham consisted of Dressage, show jumping and the exciting cross country course, where we had the extra interest of having some jumps named after Nova IT Solutions. A well organised day, with loads of volunteers, good weather and a well thought out course with a good safety standard using the new frangible pins (as designed by Martin Herbert for British Eventing, and used at Badminton and Burghley Horse Trials).

Did you know that emails aren't usually backed up? Outlook saves your emails in a Personal Folder file with a .pst extension that doesn't automatically get caught in normal backups
Why back up data? Files can be lost from your computer in any number of ways—accidentally deleting a file, a virus or complete hard drive failure. Important personal items are usually gone forever. Ask us for backup details
