Don't you already have 20mb mate? How old school!

I hope that the government aren't expecting me to pay 50p per month to pay BT to catch up with my current provider!

Luckilly I get at least 6-7mb.... Not sure when my exchange will be upgraded to ADSL 2+.

Last week me and the wife were on our honeymoon and I must say that the only time I had my D2 on was when we were driving for the TomTom.

I have to be honest and say that I didn't miss the internet and all it brings for one moment (although that might be more down to the fact it was a honeymoon than anything else)

Like a few people on here tho, if I didn't have an internet connection at work then my job would be very difficult to do.

Congrats to you and Mrs Graffen

Theres a time and place for everything! I'm sure sitting browsing on your mobile would not go down too well in those circumstances!

Yeah I had to wait until the honeymoon evening before I was allowed to check my email....

Well we counted our first holiday in Wales as a sort of a honeymoon, and as I won't fly its' the best we'll get.

Like others, I have had access to the internet for so long now and spend most of my day on it at work (when not busy) though I suppose I could survive if it was not easily accessible-like being in a dessert or something.

Though I have to admit - I would be lost without my phone, I even travelled 10 miles back home yesterday morning just to get it. LOL

...trapped in a dessert! mmmm, lovely sticky toffee pud would be my choice!

I think you meant desert!
