I thought that BT Openzone cost a bomb.

People would probably be better off spending money on psychiatric sessions
if they can't go 30 mins without accessing the internet.

Agreed. And BT Openzone is indeed incredibly expensive.

But WiFi is free - via The Cloud - in any McDonalds or Pret outlets -
even at McD's in railway stations such as Paddington. It is also free
at Krispy Kreme outlets.

Interestingly WiFi is also free at Slough Station - not useful when
passing through at speed - but if waiting for a train, or even if
stopping there for a few minutes - there is enough time to connect and
do a few emails!!
