Default addicted to the ford forums?

I was just wondering if anyone on here is 'addicted' to the ford foums. What i mean by this is how many times a day on average would you go on here and do you that that it may be a little too much..

Well sometimes I spent 6-8 hours of my WORKING DAY (!!!) on the forums. Count that as one large visit perhaps?

Then weekends I tend to be away from home... no time for computer :newangel: : : : : :eclipsee_

Whenever I'm on the net (which is several times during the day) I always visit these forums. I particularly enjoy reading threads where people are doing project cars and seeing how they are progressing. All good information for when I start my restoration project in the not too distant future (I hope).

I usually just log on once and read all the new threads and then check back a couple times later on in the day. Definately visit this site more than any other site on the net.

Way too much time!! My routine is usually like this:

Wake up, turn on computer and log into forums.

Leave, come back, check for updates (this can happen several times a day)...

Quickly check before work (6pm).

Come home, eat in front of the computer on the forums.

I've got ADSL so once my computer is on, it stays on until I go back to sleep!!

once a day normally, and i'll usually just check at e-series forums and leave it at that. I absolutely hate spending hours on the computer, I feel like i'm wasting my day if i do...
