Where's your favourite spot to pick up free Wi-Fi?

What do you have handy at your bedside?

What are the things you always take with you?

I mean the coolest place I've picked up free Wi-Fi was in various parts of Morocco, where for some reason people never lock down their networks. So I would be in this beautiful mountain village and my cell would work better than it does in Toronto.

Kleenex, reading light, glasses case, whatever book I'm reading, moisturizer. Generally postcards and things I use as bookmarks.

I have the stereotypical lady purse: wallet, cell, keys, change purse, pads, lip gloss, charger, iPod, portable battery, pen, bottle opener. I can probably survive the apocalypse based on the contents of my purse.

Hmm, I don't go out really and use free wifi. I guess I would have to say hotel rooms when I am on vacations. lol...

Books and a bedside lamp for those times I wake up and just can't get back to sleep.

Is it weird to say my watch? I feel naked without one. :p
Hugs, Jon

Library or Starbucks.

Pen and notepad, whichever book I'm currently reading, and my tablet which also acts as my alarm clock.

Keys, pen and a small notepad, pocket knife, cell phone.

The only place I care about free wifi is our neighborhood bar, and only because I can't get good signal there.

Remote controls, bag balm for my nostrils, and water. The other side has my CPAP, which is why I need the bag balm.

If I'm exercising: water, phone, keys, mp3 player
Otherwise: Phone, keys, wallet

I don't go out and about, so I've only used free wi-fi at airports (although not in Spokane, because they only have pay wi-fi) and hotels. I don't have a smart phone, so it's only places where I'd be carrying my laptop or iPad.

Bottle of water, lip balm, candy, blood glucose monitor, stack of books, huge assortment of pills I take when I get up.

Lip balm, blood glucose monitor, candy, phone, pain killers, bottle of water.

I've never used free wifi.

Next to my bed I have a bedlamp,CPAP machine, my mobile phone and a now-ancient clock radio (which I have set to the local Greek radio station, because I really hate understanding what people are saying when I'm trying to wake up). My e-book reader is usually there as well.

You really don't want the list of what's in my bag!

I don't use wi-fi except in our home.

Books, ink pens, note pad/pencil, spare reading glasses, hand/foot lotion, coasters for drinks, kleenex.

What I take w. me is my purse which has evolved into a survival kit. Phone, nail clippers, nail file, pens, 1-2 books, small notebook, mints, lip balm, pill box w. ass't meds, mirror, spare reading glasses, tooth ache medicine, tissues.

I also keep an emergency bag packed w. undies/socks/extra toothbrush/comb/pj bottoms or leggings, small hand towel. Lately I put it in the trunk of the car for certain Dr visits as well. Keeps hubby from having to find pack necessities other than phone charger and a small fleece throw and a robe.

I don't although the library would probably be the best place.

I have water in a bottle (spilt a glass too many times!), a bedlight for reading books, book/s, a torch, a clock, glasses.

Depends on where I'm going. If to town, then wallet with driver's licence etc in, tissues (if I don't forget), a notebook (you'd be surprised how handy that is!), my mobile phone, glasses. If going away, toothbrush and toothpaste, hairbrush, that sort of thing and of course clothes and nightie etc.

Where's your favourite spot to pick up free Wi-Fi?

Motels, and where Rod & I were staying when we went camping.

What do you have handy at your bedside?

Case for my glasses, old rag to wank in, lube ( Get your mind out of the
gutter- my hands and feet get very dry so I put stuff on 'em before going
to bed.)

What are the things you always take with you?

Wallet, cell phone, little toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, spare change.

I generally don't use public WiFi - more secure just using a cellular connection. But there are times when it's invaluable, such as wonderful little country pubs with minimal or no reception, or destination airports if your usual carrier has insane roaming rates (about the only sad thing about GiffGaff, otherwise an excellent company - fancy browsing at £5/MB? =:).

By the bedside: mainly some water on the dresser top, by the bed head, and to the side, Hazel and the iPad. As soon as I'm awake, or if I just wake up randomly for a spell, I can just hoist either or both up, and have a little nose around SLU, or a comic I'm catching up with, or maybe just a game of Scrabble. And the headphones, if I feel like watching some clip someone's posted, and the roomie's asleep.

Taking out and about? Depends, but the bag's always got a variety of Useful Stuff like a tiny, bright torch for finding my way along unlit footpaths, a Lightning-micro USB cable for previewing photos from the camera on the iPad rather than just its internal display, and some emergency earbuds if I've forgotten the headphones and the bus/train is graced by noisy souls, young or old. If I'm going anywhere potentially interesting, I'll likely have the D7100 with me, and some combination of lenses as appropriate. If I'm going to take photos of my dinner, they're going to be good photos, dammit. =:) (And the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 does so well at it, too, whether wide open for shallow DoF or just accommodating subdued lighting, or stopped down a bit for a deeper shot) With the iPad in the back pocket of the bag, I'm pretty well set for a day's adventuring. ^_^
