Helped Mr KK log his new tablet into the WiFi - it’s always a two handed job as the password is on the bottom of a tower thing and is in minute font! 😳

Take a photo of the WiFi password, it can the be enlarged easily 😉

That’s what I typically do when I am on my own but Mr KK was not in the mood last night to try that. He needed help immediately!

Change the WiFi password to something you can remember that meets strong password criteria. Or write it down and stick it on a noticeboard/inside a cupboard/in your password book. It’s useful for when you have visitors.

I wouldn’t have a clue where to start with that … 😳

How would you change a password on a device like that? (I didn’t even know it was possible.)

you can normally find the instructions for your specific box online or in the booklet! you do it off your laptop/computer/phone by logging into the router.

Thanks MB 😊 I will have a rummage later.

Had at the cellar this morning! Both myself and Mr KK and we managed not to fall out! 😉 Lots of rubbish to go to the tip tomorrow, rearranged the contents, vacuumed the floor and had at the cobwebs! I also took out the washing machine drawer and wiped down the inside and outside of the door.

Next job is finances update and paying the CC whilst Mr KK builds my sweet pea support for this year 😊❤️

Yep - log into the router via the web portal or app. I'd change the admin password as well if I were you. The admin password you do need to keep confidential, but the main password isn't an issue. I have a guest network for trades/visitors who need access, and a separate one for work (don't trust work not to snoop my network) both with restrictions on them. But then I also have 500m of data cable running through the house and a 16-port ethernet switch under the stairs :)

I love how you both support each other. 🤗

Thanks @beanielou 😊

I will try and have a look at the password thing tomorrow @greenbee 😊🤔

Spent the afternoon yesterday at my very serious gardening friend’s house. We had a good catch up and a reminiscence about our respective school days - she was considerably more studious than I was! 😂 I had taken her some dairy and gluten free biscuits I had found in our local grape shrub as I thought she might enjoy them. We had a somewhat blustery wander round her gardens - it’s a big space! and part of her orchards. I then came home with a whole heap of new scientists - she and her husband read them and then pass them onto me. I then pass them onto my quality engineer 😊

This morning I got moving early and managed to get a washing load on the line and my short session rehab done before heading out for a haircut. Haircut done (all budgetted for) and I am back to my best shaggy self 😊 Rehab is slowly improving but I got Mr KK to do one of the exercises with a band and he nearly shot through the ceiling where I can barely move it … 😢

Popped into town once I got back and changed my library books (which reminds me that I need to update the total in my signature as I finished one yesterday). Tried to find a nice shower gel as a treat for myself but they all smell dreadful to me, so that was a fail … 🙄

Came home, had lunch, loaded the car and did the tip run! 👏💪 😊 I may have popped into the plant centre on the way home and bought some spare broad beans plants and some mixed antirhymums (sp?) from my pocket money 😉😊

Saw a neighbour who I like and who I think could be good for the other neighbour I like who is somewhat isolated. I feel like I am matchmaking … Let’s see how it pans out … 😊

Just done the full rehab session and can see improvement on some bits but not others … 🤷‍♀️

Mr KK has had a good day - came back with a haul of drivers manuals for ancient motorcycles from an autojumble he went to this morning and is making good progress on the last steps / section of path.

Small but satisfying OAT done 😊 Took down the lampshade in the lounge and washed it. It desperately needed it as I think it got left in place when we were doing building works a couple of years ago (ahem!) and although the rest of the room got cleaned that got missed (we only use it very rarely).

Storm Dave is being a bit frisky here - Chloe is unimpressed so we have had more of her company today ❤️

Ah Storm Dave is it? I did wonder what was causing greenhouse windows to fly out here and there….and hail from nowhere then sun right after.

Your garden is looking very good considering mine still looks mostly dead 😏😂. I can't wait to have a lovely patio like yours where you can walk across it without stumbling over crooked slabs that aren't lain properly lol….

I hope the matchmaking goes well, I am partial to trying this every now and then with people I know across work, sometimes it works too, other times I get told off by one or both parties 😏👀😂.
