The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's youngest son celebrates his third birthday on Friday, a day after the end of the royal family's official two-week period of mourning after the death of Prince Philip.

The royals released a new photo to mark the occasion, which shows a smiling Prince Louis perched on a bicycle on his first day at nursery this week.

The photo, taken by the Duchess of Cambridge in the grounds of Kensington Palace, shows Louis with a school bag strapped to his back on his first day at the Willcocks Nursery School.

The nursery is the same one attended by Louis' older sister Princess Charlotte, who turns six next month.

Prince George, the eldest of the three siblings, attended the Westacre Montessori School Nursery near the royal residence of Sandringham.

With Louis' first few years spent largely away from the public gaze, any sightings of him or his siblings are eagerly anticipated.

The duchess is a keen amateur photographer and a patron of the Royal Photographic Society.

Just last week, a photo of Louis with Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth II and six other great-grandchildren was released as part of arrangements for the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral.

It was the first time Louis featured in an official portrait with the queen.

Last Christmas, his parents Prince William and Catherine released a family photo taken at Anmer Hall, on the queen's Sandringham estate in Norfolk. The image was used on the family’s Christmas card.

Louis Arthur Charles Windsor, born in St Mary’s Hospital, London, is fifth in line for the throne after his grandfather Prince Charles, his father, Prince William, and his siblings.

The first image released of him is from a photo call on the steps of St Mary’s when he was a few days old and in his mother’s arms.

Louis was left at home last weekend when the funeral service was held for Prince Philip.

Queen Elizabeth marked her 95th birthday on Wednesday while mourning her husband Philip.

Top tips to avoid cyber fraud

Microsoft’s ‘hacker-in-chief’ David Weston, creator of the tech company’s Windows Red Team, advises simple steps to help people avoid falling victim to cyber fraud:

1. Always get the latest operating system on your smartphone or desktop, as it will have the latest innovations. An outdated OS can erode away all investments made in securing your device or system.

2. After installing the latest OS version, keep it patched; this means repairing system vulnerabilities which are discovered after the infrastructure components are released in the market. The vast majority of attacks are based on out of date components – there are missing patches.

3. Multi-factor authentication is required. Move away from passwords as fast as possible, particularly for anything financial. Cybercriminals are targeting money through compromising the users’ identity – his username and password. So, get on the next level of security using fingertips or facial recognition.

4. Move your personal as well as professional data to the cloud, which has advanced threat detection mechanisms and analytics to spot any attempt. Even if you are hit by some ransomware, the chances of restoring the stolen data are higher because everything is backed up.

5. Make the right hardware selection and always refresh it. We are in a time where a number of security improvement processes are reliant on new processors and chip sets that come with embedded security features. Buy a new personal computer with a trusted computing module that has fingerprint or biometric cameras as additional measures of protection.

Chef Nobu's advice for eating sushi

“One mistake people always make is adding extra wasabi. There is no need for this, because it should already be there between the rice and the fish.
“When eating nigiri, you must dip the fish – not the rice – in soy sauce, otherwise the rice will collapse. Also, don’t use too much soy sauce or it will make you thirsty. For sushi rolls, dip a little of the rice-covered roll lightly in soy sauce and eat in one bite.
“Chopsticks are acceptable, but really, I recommend using your fingers for sushi. Do use chopsticks for sashimi, though.
“The ginger should be eaten separately as a palette cleanser and used to clear the mouth when switching between different pieces of fish.”

What is the Supreme Petroleum Council?

The Abu Dhabi Supreme Petroleum Council was established in 1988 and is the highest governing body in Abu Dhabi’s oil and gas industry. The council formulates, oversees and executes the emirate’s petroleum-related policies. It also approves the allocation of capital spending across state-owned Adnoc’s upstream, downstream and midstream operations and functions as the company’s board of directors. The SPC’s mandate is also required for auctioning oil and gas concessions in Abu Dhabi and for awarding blocks to international oil companies. The council is chaired by Sheikh Khalifa, the President and Ruler of Abu Dhabi while Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, Abu Dhabi’s Crown Prince and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, is the vice chairman.
