I must have used a 'save your password' option because I haven't a clue what my password is. Most sites that use a password have a link beside them with 'Forgotten your password?' Click here upon which you are sent a link to create a new one. I hate to say it but I'm always forgetting my passwords.

Thanks, me too - so many passwords to remember haha.

It's good that you can be sent a chance to reset anyway :-)

I know, I write them down which you're not meant t do but I now have so many written down they don't make any sense to me so anyone finding them would have no chance either. I keep meaning to get one of those sites where you keep your passwords (safe) but that would be too easy and take away the fun and excitement I get when I'm locked out of a site or account I want to visit.

My son who works in IT has no trouble remembering passwords and he uses proper ones - not variations of pets names like I tend to do - shocking I know 😀

I like to know the passwords. I write them in code - it's a matter of remembering the codes then :-D

I've got all sorts of weird and cunning ways of making a secure password. I swap the letter a for a 4, I use a $ for an S, I pop capital letters in instead of lower case , I've even used the first letter of every word in a line of poetry - then I can't remember which word I used where and what poem did I use. One thing is certain - I change my password regularly 😱

Yes, it's good to do that. My email was hacked one time. It's wretched.
