Why would you have network ports in your home anyway? Surely nobody has this unless they have an office or something?

Phone point > router > wifi everything

Non?

I'm assuming it's meant to be 'funny' or 'cutting'.

It was a genuine question. If I was being cutting I would have fired into pretty much any of Winston's posts.

Tonker, does that stuff not all run off wifi?

I don't really have a clue about computers and prefer to keep my interactions with them to a minimum (I use them for editing and music but prefer not to know how they work, hence Mac) but all my stuff just works off wifi.

Fair dos. My needs are probably more modest, thank god. It would break my heart to have to phone IT to make house work!

Do you spunk the money after pulling the trigger?

I want to get it right. I'm fat but live too close to the station for a station car. I actually love my wife and we both love our "toy" car . Still concerned about the spunking bit. Was I impolite when buying the toy car by not loading out in the man's kitchen when I signed the V5.

I'm confused.

But to answer the question. The typical PHer.

I've two friends who post here. Both very different from each other, and different from me. The only typical thing about being on PH is that we all have an interest in cars.

I suppose some work hard to make things work for them their families or their car dreams.

Others are I guess genuinely well off.

And some, students or whatever and potless.

It's a bit like asking what is the typical drinker in my local. The council bin men get in there, as do a couple of Lords. An ex barrister, now vicar. A printer, an old bloke who worked at the fish market. Journalists, TV camera men, a jeweller, teachers, IT blokes, hipsters, a writer, a few builders, a bloke who flew Hunters with the RAF, a brickie, bus driver , a bankrupt, once jailed businessman, coppers, a mad South African bloke, bizarre man in a rainbow coat and a former stunt man.

A massive cross section with a liking for beer in common.

PH is probably much the same.
