Default Moved into our house!

I'm here getting internet on a dongle, surrounded by boxes, but we're in our own home at last. Three years, I think, renting, moving through 3 locations.

It's a bit small, though it has enough rooms, so I'm calling it cosy, but we're here, with the fab. Devon coast view you see on my avatar!



Wish I knew how to do some wine glasses, as we've just celebrated with pizza and good wine, looking out toward Portland Bill in the far distance.

I don't "do" technical - but my understanding is that a dongle is a small device you can plug into your computer to pick up wireless internet - kinda USB size.

I'm guessing that Bev is sitting in her new house, stealing a signal from a neighbour.

I love the word though.

Correct...I have a UK PAYG dongle that I use with my netbook when I'm in the UK. It's not worth paying for internet connection at the house when I'm not there most of the time.

Congratulations Bevm...it must be great to be home at last.

If you were nicking someone else's wifi you'd be pretty stupid to pay for a dongle. A dongle means you are paying for a mobile internet connnection...as opposed to the connection to your home. As I live in the US and visit the UK I use an Orange Pay As You Go scheme.
