'Letters to the Editor'
Dear Editor, as a frequent traveller on GNER service from Edinburgh to Aberdeen, I was most heartened to discover this service will provide Wi Fi facilities for its passengers from August 2006. A much needed facility allowing passengers to access their e-mails etc via their laptop computer while on the move. Hopefully while this is being installed GNER will upgrade all their carriages to give access to an electricity supply otherwise time on the internet etc will be limited to the time allowed before the laptop computer battery power shuts down.

Dear Editor, while visiting Aberdeen the other day I was amazed to discover that while using my laptop in one of the City Centre cafes, I was able to access my e-mails etc via the Wi Fi system, Aberdeen City Council have installed throughout the city. Great news for the busy executive who is constantly reviewing their e-mail box. I also noticed the Council had installed 'IKiosks' at strategic points within Union Street, these are there to provide information to tourists and citizens.

Dear Editor, some weeks ago the Royal Scottish National Orchestra held their Proms concerts in Edinburgh and Glasgow during the performances, five pieces of music, intended as prospective entries for a Scottish National Anthem, were presented for members of the public to vote on. Access to the voting system was made by visiting the RSNO website. Having recently viewed the outcome of this exercise I stumbled on the FORUM pages which contain interesting arguements as to why we should have our own Anthem and which one it should be. A very interesting read indeed.
