A while ago I bought a new radio phone for home and gave my old one to my next door neighbour. It meant I could call him and he could tell me where in the house he was at the time ... an unintended consequence!
Well, my neighbour’s a nice old man but not that tech savvy so every now and again he asks me to look at the phone to sort out a problem for him.
The other day he brought one of the handsets together with the user’s manual and asked if I could sort out a problem he just couldn’t fathom.
He showed me the display and said, See that number? I just can’t get rid of it. And every day it increases by one.
I said, That’s the date, M: it’s meant to be like that!
My neighbour said, Well I never ...
Nice story I think!!
