Grandad changed his tablet password to something he would never forget.
He wrote no note because that would defeat the point.
The next day, the tablet rejected every word he tried.
His granddaughter asked what was happening when he chose the password.
Grandad disliked passwords.
They needed a capital letter, a number, a mark and, in his opinion, a witness.
His granddaughter Mia helped him reset the tablet.
Choose something memorable, she said. Not your name and not password.
Grandad thought for a long time. Then he smiled.
I have it. Something I can never forget.
He typed it twice and refused to write it down.
The next morning, he called Mia.
The tablet had rejected six guesses, including TEA, SHED and MIAHELP.
Mia asked what he had been thinking about when he made the password.
Grandad said he had been in the kitchen.
What could you see?
The clock, the kettle and your grandmother looking annoyed.
Why was she annoyed?
Because I had spent twenty minutes choosing a password.
Mia asked what he had typed.
Grandad suddenly remembered.
He entered it and the tablet opened.
Mia asked what the unforgettable password was.
Grandad grinned.
ASKMELATER.
