The quest for reliable wifi

I'm in Sheffield, having delivered my presentation at the LfN study day (account to follow) and waiting for the train. With time to kill, I though a little light e-mail and  blogging would be a good way to pass the time. I found myself in Sheffield Central Library (where I last was for a conference of the Library Campaign long long ago). They had no wifi, but helpfully printed out a list of places that did. Ruskin's bar sounded good, though I wonder how Ruskin would have felt about having a bar named after him. They had wifi, but it failed to work at all. I type this from the Showroom Cinema cafe, where they have a functioning connection, but it won't collect any of my Gmail. It will have to do.
