Where do you Gransnet ?

iPad wherever I am. iPhone too sometimes.
NanKate you don't have to go into 'settings' to mute your iPad. There's a switch to the left of the volume control. Just click that to mute it or un mute it
I am up in the night with mine but DH complains the light from it disturbs him. Judging from his snores, I don't think it does

1) Laptop in the sitting room (usually with feet up).
2) On the iPad elsewhere in the house or when in a hotel/abroad.
3) On the iPhone where there is no wi-fi signal (used it today for the first time).
4) Very, very occasionally in the study on the desktop computer.

In case this gives the impression that a) I'm stonkingly rich or b) that I'm some sort of techno addict, I feel I should point out that:
The laptop was a gift from my husband.
The iPad was a gift from my Chinese 'son'.
The iPhone (4) was a gift from my son in law when he upgraded to an iPhone 5 (which he's since broken, but he's not having his old one back; it's all mine.) [evil ]
The desktop p.c. is practically an antique.

Who cares where they come from as long as we are online

Thanks Bellasnana I have just discovered the switch with your help. I will use it from now on.

With regard to the light can't you turn the screen away from DH ? I find husbands do complain about things that really don't affect them at all.

I believe you are in the US on hols, do our generation in the States use IPads etc as much as we do ?

I read it on my smart phone with my feet up - but write on my computer in my 'office'. I still like my Apple computer and find writing easier than on my phone.

I am sitting in the kitchen . cooking a Sunday roast.practicing on my new android phone.very sensitive keys

I am afraid I am really boring and use my laptop on the sofa in the lounge, but only when the GC aren't around! Otherwise we end up with Spiderman, The Hulk, Iggle Piggle or .......well, you get my drift. I like Gnet when it is nice and peaceful and I can concentrate.

Where ever I am

Bella and NanKate. I dimmed the backlight on my iPad due to DH mentioning it was too bright as he tried to,get to sleep! Sorted.

Also meant to mention, when I cannot get wifi connection I go into Personal Hotspot on my iPhone and this connects wifi to iPad.

On my laptop on the sofa in the sitting room.

Laptop or iPhone especially when watching boring tv!

On my laptop in the sitting room. It gets plonked on the coffee table amidst gardening books and magazines. The dogs know as soon as I pick it up they can snuggle up on the sofa.

Agus - yes, I dim the backlight too and I honestly don't believe it disturbs Mr. B. He only notices I am awake if he gets up to go to the loo, otherwise he sleeps like a baby!

NanKate - I'm sorry I can't answer your question re the US. I haven't really met any people of our generation who I could ask. DDs friends are all in the 20's to 30's age group and all seem surgically attached to their devices. I feel for their children as they seem to be neglected while mum is constantly checking/answering messages and what-not. Glad the Internet wasn't around when my kids were little
