I can't either -I think It's because at home, there's always something I could be doing..Work, housework, dog walking...etc.

If it's at night I could, but then other half is home and I would feel rude if I ignored him to read a book...It only half makes sense, as I ignore him when I work or faff about on the 'net!
I suppose because those things can be tertiary.

I read in bed sometimes..But again quite often in bed there are better things to do!
I get very 'into' books and can't do anything else at the same time as reading...It's a primary activity.
When you're on holiday you can't do anything else but relax if you're not meant to be anywhere..
I think I need to get a book for over xmas.
(For when all the 'grown-ups' are talking and I'm stuck for something to do

I am going to order a new one
