Herself asked me to play some Christmas music in the background. We have a Yamaha sound bar under the TV that can be set to use Bluetooth as its sound input. So I thought it would great to send music from my laptop to the sound bar, as its sound quality is fantastic.

I must have tried for more than an hour to get the two devices to connect via Bluetooth, with no luck. In the end in sheer desperation, I decided to read the Yamaha manual - and there it was plain as day: If you have difficulty to connect, you may have another Bluetooth device too close to the sound bar. Yes! I turned off my desktop's (which was nearby) Bluetooth and the sound bar immediately connected to the laptop. Aaaaargh!

So she asked me why I did not read the manual in the first place? I said: "I am an engineer, I shouldn't have to read manuals."

She said: "For a clever engineer you are rather stupid!" So here I sit listening to Christmas music with a deflated ego! Sigh | :sigh:
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!
