Who remembers their WiFi password off the top of their head?
That was a rhetorical question by the way, but if you answered yes to that, then we’re impressed. A little dubious perhaps, but impressed nonetheless because let’s face it, WiFi passwords are pretty difficult to remember.
Whether it’s a factory-setting password that you’re issued with when you first take out your WiFi package, a password you have re-set yourself that wasn’t memorable enough to stick in your mind, or a difficult-to-remember office WiFi password you’ve got no chance at recalling when you’re asked/require it again.
The bottom line is, they’re tricky to remember.

So, wouldn’t it be easier if a device could simply just do the job of remembering it for you? If that sounds like a life-saver to you then JML is currently selling a ‘password assistant’ dock that will connect your device to the WiFi with just one touch and it’s currently on offer too.
The DOCK Password Assistant is designed to “give your guests instant WiFi access with one touch”.

According to the product description on JML, DOCK allows your guests to “get access to your Wi-Fi in seconds by simply touching it with the back of their phones”.
“They don’t need to download any apps or subscribe to any web-sites, they just need to touch it with any Android phone or tablet, or flip and scan it with an iPhone or iPad and they’re instantly connected.”
It really couldn’t be simpler to have every guest in your home or business connected in seconds.

DOCK is available in three tasteful, elegant wooden finishes, is powered by ‘near-field’ technology meaning it never needs to be charged, and every card is protected by a laser cut piece of acrylic glass that slides out easily, so you can replace it anytime if your password changes and reconfigure it on your owner app.
With a 25% off sale currently available to take advantage of, DOCK is retailing at just £14.99.
If this sounds like a need and not a want for you, your business or someone you know, then you can get your hands on the DOCK One-Touch Password Assistant via the JML website here.

Six teenage boys have been arrested following the stabbing of a 13-year-old in Rochdale town centre over the weekend.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) explained that officers were called out to reports of a ‘serious assault’ near the Riverside Shopping Centre in central Rochdale on Saturday (29 August), and when they arrived on the scene, they found that a 13-year-old boy had been stabbed.
The young boy currently remains in hospital receiving treatment, while a police investigation into the incident is open and ongoing.
Two teenage boys were first arrested on suspicion of assault and possession of a bladed article on the same day the incident occurred (29 August), but have since been released on bail.
Officers then made four further arrests yesterday (31 August), again all teenage boys who were arrested on suspicion of assault and possession of a bladed article, with enquires ongoing.
A Section 60 and 60AA ‘stop and search’ authority was introduced in Rochdale town centre following the recent incidents in area and following reports of youths carrying weapons in the locality, and this has now been extended to 3pm today (Tuesday 1 September).
“This was a serious and sustained attack that could have had far more tragic consequences,” explained Detective Superintendent, Richard Hunt .”Our team of experienced detectives is working around the clock to understand exactly what happened, identify all those involved, and secure the strongest possible evidence.
“We will relentlessly pursue every lead available to us and will leave no stone unturned in bringing all those responsible before the courts.
“Community safety remains our absolute priority, and we are committed to ensuring those who seek to bring violence onto our streets are held fully accountable for their actions.”
Can you help? Anyone who witnessed the incident, was in the town centre at the time, or has any mobile phone, CCTV, or dashcam footage, is urged to come forward and speak to police on 101, quoting log 2750 of 29/08/2026, or using the LiveChat function on the GMP website.

High School Musical at Lowry, Salford – a night spent reliving our childhood | Review
Amy Williams
What a night spent reliving our childhood.
Now, I don’t want to exaggerate or seem biased, considering this is one of my favourite film trilogies of all time, but this could be the best stage show I’ve seen in a long while.
We all know how High School Musical goes, right? Set at East High, we follow Troy and Gabriella (the star basketball player, and the geeky new girl) who meet over New Year, and then become ‘star-crossed lovers’ when back at school as they’re part of two different ‘cliques’.
The duo mess with the ‘Status Quo’ when they audition for the school musical. But will they stick to what they know? Or become stars of the stage? I’m sure you know the ending.

From the costumes and the characters, to the memorable songs (there’s actually 52 songs in this production, including a mega mix at the end), they’ve kept right to the script of the films – and that’s exactly what we wanted to see.
Of course, the biggest throwback of them all is Kaycee Stroh – who originally featured as Martha Cox in the film trilogy – taking the role as Ms Darbus, and she was just as incredible as we expected her to be. And to see her do the iconic dance in the finale was unbelievable, 13-year-old Amy was screaming.
Also featuring Jason Donovan as Coach Bolton, Tobias Turley as Troy, Leonor Correia as Gabriella, Caitlin Tipping Sharpay, and Luke Bayer as Ryan, it was a proper impressive cast all round.

There was crowd interaction right from the off, as they taught the crowd a cheerleading routine to be included later in the show, plus for the finale, they had the lyrics on the big screen too so everyone could sing-along.
If we could go and see this show every single night, we would – it is absolutely brilliant.
