Wouldn’t you just know it; apparently we Brits are mobile phone addicts and internet hogs that throw a wobbly when we get disconnected according to research conducted by Future Laboratory.

According to an article on pcadvisor, the research shows that 85% of stay home mothers have their internet access permanently turned on and 36% of us Brits admit we are concerned when we lose connection. (Yes mine is permanently on)

The study suggests that high stress and anxiety is caused in a number of people when staying in a place with no mobile phone coverage and when the internet is down. I do have to say I do fall in that number somewhere.
