I think getting away from it all is quite liberating, and definitely good
for you. Went camping for aw eek over the summer, and although I took my
camera and a charger, and we all had mobile phones, but that was it. No
email, no facebook, no nothing. We survived ok without it, and it was kinda
nice. Maybe I'm just odd though :-)

It could have been worse... your not out of civilisation until you can not
plug in your laptop.

PS I am using Clonezilla to create a ISO backup... It took me 5 reboots to
figure out that when selecting drives, it required a tab to the OK before
pressing <Enter>... But basically the rest is brain dead so I had no trouble
using it.

I once went 13 hours without email.  When we landed I went straight to the
internet café..

I used to take the family camping and the most advancements we had was a
good Coleman's stove, a good Coleman's lantern and a portable cooler. After
a couple of days you don't notice it...those couple of days were hell
though. ;-)

doubt!

How will one family survive being stripped of their modern gadgets and made
to live with 1970s' technology? Electric Dreams put the Sullivan-Barnes
family from Reading to the test. So long texting, hello Teasmade.
