I use a lot of mobile data when I’m out and about - on the bus, travelling
by train, sitting in the park, on breaks at work etc. Mostly it’s social
media, maps, messaging and web browsing, including uploading photographs of
days out etc. My laptop often doesn’t get switched on from one month to the
next, I do almost everything I would have used that for, on my phone now.

Hmmm, ok if that's what floats your boat I suppose, but I find fiddling
with phones for that sort of thing extremely tiresome. The laptop comes
with me if I'm away overnight anywhere, and I can do things on a
reasonably sized keyboard and a 14" screen. Nothing I need to do online
is so urgent it can't wait until I'm back wherever I'm staying.

"Social media" are two words that should never have been combined in the
same sentence if you ask me. I've seen teenagers on the bus
communicating with each other by FarceBuke or whatever when they could
just as easily turn their heads and open their mouths. Why..??!!
