I sometimes wonder where the hours (eeek!) go when im sat in front of my laptop. I come home thinking I'll just pop on to do a quick search on such and such and three hours later, dinner dishes still piled high in the sink, Ive looked at peoples websites, oohed and aaahed over new babies and come away with heaps of new ideas im desperate to try out!!!

So I was wondering if anyone thinks they geek a bit too much? For me I think the following will answer that for me.....

I was driving down the street yesterday and I saw a lady with a west highland terrier and the first thing that came into my head was - Adele Keegan!

Its great to have somewhere to come to chat about anything and everything, and the best advice is always on hand. You guys are all great. Thanku! xxxx

PS - Adele, your westie is so cute!x

Not at all! I'm hardly ever on the site!

*great cry of liar, liar pants on fire from all and sundry*:lol::lol:

I've only got one more day in my dreary job, so I may be geeking less in the next month or so once I become busier. I'm on here constantly at the moment. I wouldn't mind, but it's not as if I ever have anything interesting to say!

*sits back and waits for sarky comments*:green::lol::green:

well I'm relatively new to geeking but have been on a lot lately. Work has been quiet, about to change tactics in work, and it has been fab to be able to come into the geek 'staff-room' and chat.

my hub and son call my laptop 'lappy' and just now EXPECT me to be on all the time.

Loved the comical husband...............using his phone to communicate!!!

Have told my husband I would 'pencil him in for a coffee' whilst geeking and watching TV, ready for our 9pm coffee and bics.

Far too much, I've even got inlimited browsing on my mobile for down time in work, although it's rubbish cos I can't really reply to anything but I can read to my heart's content.

It's not so much the geeking that I do too much of, it's the people I have met on geek that I am now chatting to on MSN every afternoon, I get nothing done!

ME - no , not at all, hardly ever:eek:

Well business is pretty quiet at the moment so I tend to geek. I'm inclined to think Hmmmm, housework, ironing, doing my own nails or geeking:green:

So sorry I'm sort of a fixture:lol:

This is me too Work is really quiet, so when it's a choice of housework or geeking, guess which one wins. I just wish I wasn't in a completely different time zone from most peeps.

Me too,on occasion i think " i need a life " but nah not bothered for one :D

On a more serious note though,i do think a little less time on here and more spent drumming up custom wouldn't go a miss :o

at least i'm honest :lol:
