Wire-less....

Mwahahaha.... I am still chuckling about one of our more successful tricks. Ok, it may not be that funny, but we are all the better for it.  So, last week we changed our broadband supplier, out of cost more than anything. I planned my week to be away so whatever day it happened I could continue to work. Hubby had an idea on Sunday though, what if we change the password now and tell them that the current supplier has cut us off.... I wasn't too keen, essentially as I worried it would cause major stroppy teens. One has his own phone contract with mega amounts of 3G... the other runs out of 3G in 1.354928582 hours at the beginning of each billing cycle.  He did it and I played along.  We became a family again... we talked, we relaxed, we did little jobs, we were all nice to one another. Thursday arrived and the change was due to happen. We plugged in the new router in anticipation of how the mood would change once up and running. I had my usual non-confrontational chat with 17... you have been amazing this week, it's been great having you with us more etc etc.  The twitchy leg began as the blue light stayed on.... it was just a case of giving him the password.  Not until the dishwasher is emptied, your room is tidied and the dog is walked for half an hour. Never seen him move to fast....... 3 days later with new ground rules for wifi access the mood is still great, we are still all speaking and getting along. I will take that, and deal with our revert back when it happens.
