We go away fro 10 weeks at a time and all emails can wait. If we are needed by someone important to us, they can phone us. Otherwise I will do the over a 1000+ emails I get when I come back. not before. Ah! peace.
Internet is very handy when away.
It's not all about email.
Finding out about places to visit, opening times, prices. Phone numbers, Sailing times, ferries , Booking fishing trips and theaters / shows , Ordering takeaways, Maps , campsites, shopping etc.
Also handy for internet TV NEWS and WEATHER.
Some people like to be totally away from it all. Some like to be cut off from the outside world but some want something else.
Last holiday , we saved our grown up kids £40 in petrol by looking on the internet and finding a theme-park they were going to that day was closed unexpectedly .
I agree it is useful as I use it myself at home. But this is only my preference which is more to my Bob's preference for me so, I do not spend a lot of time on it.
Which incidently when I gave him my old laptop to use for just cds/dvds & roms. I took the internet off so he would not make a mistake and leave himself wide open to a security problem. He has the Microsoft games on it and he will play 3-4 games for hours. He is now worse than I am so maybe that is the real reason ,no longer for me, but himself to stop.
