Dear ScottishPoet , Yes you are right and I can also buy a can of Coke and a Sandwich there along with a SIM card if wifi is removed from the lounges.

Like all things it’s down to personal preference . I access books magazines and news using both modalities, even poetry sometimes. I love sitting down with a paper copy of a book or magazine . I find I concentrate more on the content and am less distracted than when on a device . It’s also a pleasantly tactile experience. I can’t deny however the convenience and speed of an online device even though that’s not always a good thing in this busy world .
