Best laid plans

The Gorse Fox had planned carefully and brought his T-mobile USB
internet key with him to provide some quiet browsing during the
evening. Unfortunately nothing works quite as planned. It is many
months since he last used the key and it is the first time it has been
used on his work laptop. This meant that he didn't have any saved
settings to use... and unfortunately had forgotten any setup
instructions. As a result it sitting uselessly on the side of the
laptop whilst the Gorse Fox resorts to his portable keyboard and his
smart phone. (Oh yes... you can trust the Gorse Fox to have both belt
and braces - and even some string in case bothe fail)

Password Safe my boy. One copy on your home machine, one copy on a USB drive. Keeps all your passwords, setup instructions IDs etc., safely. Personally, I keep the live dataset on the main PC, backed up in the normal back-up run, with a spare copy USB drive.

Ah yes well... GF does use Password Safe, but had not put that information in to start with (Doh!)
