Sitting on a Virgin train from London to Holyhead in Wales with a lovely window seat, watching the fog play over the green fields and black faced sheep, when my eye strayed to a sign on the carriage wall opposite: WiFi hotspot.  So I pulled out my iPad and joined up for 5 pounds.

And here I am, beatiful, lush green English countryside whizzing by my window as I tap out this blog.

Who says technology isn’t wonderful?
