If I am away from home (UK or anywhere) I either use a cellular modem or VPN if cellular is too expensive. This avoids untrusted networks and man-in-the-middle exploits which are available almost off the shelf (WiFi Pineapple). The probability of being attacked is low but the consequences could be high (banking). Whilst I might surf on an unknown net or public/semi-public WiFi (inc. hotel) with a hardened device, I would not log in to anything.
