How long do you spend on this site?

It's 04:08 here and I have got to work in 4 hours! You guys are starting to get into the swing of things now and I can't sleep as I keep checking all the new posts.

I'll catch up in the morning. Have a good one.

Hey, my first reply from Sir Ted.

You see, I close my laptop, lie down...........then check one last time for any more posts. Time to shut down me thinks.

Fantastic site Ted! I am extremely grateful for the time you put in. My other half would have been sent to the loony bin a while ago were it not for this forum. She is a PH but can only handle so much(steady on).

Cheers

Far too long! I only discovered Pistonheads 2/3 months ago but in that time mobile phone bill (Nokia Communicator) has gone up from £22-25 a month to £90 last month. Bear in mind I browse on the computers at work and ntl: digital at home (ordered internet especially for this) as well.

Couple of hours min at home plus many more at work, flicking back and forth if I'm at my desk. If I'm working from home, well some days very little has been crossed off the work list.

Been in our Paris office for the past two days, the server there gives me e-mail but not internet access so dial up from the hotel, not cheap.

Cheers,
JSG

Regular checks and posts throughout the day , definitely an employment-comprimising amount of time.

I tend to leave it logged on all day, sometimes browsing other sites aswell. It all depends on if I've got much to do at work or if I can pretend to be working on a computer. I've been known to do an hours work then spend all day on PH. With the odd fag break obviously How sad is that...

Just a word of caution to people admitting "emploment compromising amounts of time". You do realise that this is a public forum that anyone, including your boss / client, could read?

As well as things like firewall logs and proxy logs?? Just a warning

I also seem to spend way to much time here, But am beginning to slow down to about 8 hours a day! "Cold Turkey" is tough but I'll manage
