The pineapple on the fridge
Hi, it's Josh, from the flat in Bristol. Sorry to call so late. I can't connect to the Wi-Fi. I can see the network, but my phone says "no internet". Is the password on the router?
Oh, it's on the fridge, under the pineapple magnet. Of course it is. Right, I'm typing it now.
It works! But the signal is patchy. It's strong in the kitchen and terrible in the bedroom. I have an important video call at nine, and I don't want to look like a robot. So I'll use my phone as a hotspot, just in case. Thanks, Maria. And thanks for the pineapple.

Tech support at Nana's
Nana, calm down, I'm here. No, don't press everything at once. What's the problem? The film keeps buffering? The little circle goes round and round? Okay.
Does the picture freeze, or does the whole thing crash? Both. Right. And the page won't load either. Okay, first, it's time for the oldest trick in the book. Turn it off and on again. Not the telly, Nana. The router. The little black box.
Is it off? Wait ten seconds. Now switch it on. Yes, the lights are coming back. Try the film again. It's working? Great. Oh, and Nana, why is the fridge unplugged? You turned that off, too. Quick, plug it in!

The code goes to the old phone
Hi, I just bought this new mobile, and I need help to set up my accounts. First, I have to log out of the old phone. Oh, I forgot my password. Sorry. I forgot my password for everything.
Can you reset it? You'll send me a code by text. Lovely. Which number? My old number. Okay, that's fine, I still have the old phone.
Hmm. The code goes to the old phone. And where's the old phone? I put it in my coat. And where's my coat? On the bus, I think. I was so happy about the new phone that I forgot the old one. Is there a shop that sells coats? No? Okay.

Dead phone at the gate
Excuse me, sorry. I'm so sorry. My phone has a flat battery, and my boarding pass is on it. A message started to pop up an hour ago, but I didn't listen. Of course.
Don't worry, I saved a screenshot of the ticket in the cloud. And I can send you the link, if you want. But first I need power. Could I unplug your coffee machine for ten minutes? Just ten. I'll buy a coffee. I'll buy five.
Thank you. You're a lifesaver. The screen is coming back. It says one per cent. One per cent! Quick, open the link. Yes! Look at that. Gate 14. Now I just need to run.

Goodbye, cat videos
Zeynep, come here, my laptop is being stupid. I want to install the new game, but it says there isn't enough space. How much have I got? Four gigabytes. The game needs ten. Right.
So I have to free up some space. I deleted the photos from our holiday, but it still wasn't enough. Then I deleted thirty-six videos of my cat, and I cried a little. Now it says, "Please sign in." I signed in. It says, "Please sign in." I signed in again!
Maybe I should reboot it. Okay, rebooting. Wait, why is it doing an update? Zeynep, how long does that take? Two hours? Fine. I'll make a cup of tea. And I'll never see my cat doing yoga again.
