    Gruntling generally has nothing to do with toilets. You're thinking of grunting.
    I can see where the confusion arose, give that I referenced both in my last post.

    My bad...
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    I'm most comfortable reading/replying at home with no interruptions, etc. I try and only spend time on KB at work during my break times. When we went away in August for 3 days, I dialed in using my wifes laptop at the apartment we stayed in but I couldn't really get into it while in holiday mode.

    I've never ever been in an Internet Cafe.

    I usually get into it when I'm waiting for my electric blanket to heat up late at night. But if I've got uni assignments due, I'm on it a lot more often!

    I very very rarely log on at work, we're not really supposed to use our internet at work for personal use.
    (And I'm a good girl I am.)

    I wake early so I use that time early in the morning to browse/reply etc.

    I don't have a modem connection in the toilet. There is often grunting from the toilet, but it's not from me (honestly!)

    I have used internet cafes, but usually only to check emails while we're away, I probably wouldn't bother checking KB as it would take too long.

    The toilet is an excellent place to read the KB forums as you can "download" at the same time...

    Ditto Velox!

    I'm usually checking it out at home but, when I'm at work I do too.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    I believe I have the answer.

    There was approximately 180 posts between 24:00 Friday 10th and 06:00 Monday 13th. There have been in excess of 380 posts today (Monday 13th).

    Conclusion:
    Most contributors use their employers time/internet connection to access this site. :confused2

    I read it at home mostly cause at the shop it ties up the phone line. Can't get jetstream yet as we have our line rental with clear and telecom won't give it to us unless we change over to them . I don't have access to a computer with internet access at work So like Lynda I check in before work and on my days off so I get some interesting log in times. Speaking of work I'd beat be off so I'll not be late :spudwave:

    I'm going to thread-dredge instead of proliferate, here.

    I am an Utter Geek (tm).

    I post this as I sit in bed with my new (mmmm) work laptop which conveniently fits into my bungee-able waterproof backpack, connected to the interweb via my home 802.11g wireless network and Jetstream connection.

    I just MSNed my wife, who's on the computer in the gargre.

    She's not even ten metres away.

    Now, where's my pocket protector...
