Kaye Adams asks whether we need better controls over the use of smartphones in schools.

The Scottish Secondary Teachers Association has called for national code of conduct over the use of smartphones in schools. Kaye asks for your views.

Do our schools need greater control over pupils' access to smartphones and online devices? Teachers have expressed concern about the potential for misuse and the Secondary School Teachers Association are calling for a National Code of Conduct. Kaye asks if they should be banned from school premises?

The Scottish Government this week admitted that they have failed to meet their first target for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and that they actually went up in 2010. Environmentalists say they are dismayed by the news and Government's lack ambition when it comes to tackling climate change. But should we all be doing more ourselves to help cut emissions? Are you doing your bit to work on your carbon footprint, or is up to someone else?

Kaye also hears from our dry January volunteer Shannon to see if she managed the full month of the booze.

And it's the last day to get your suggestions in for a name for the Forth replacement bridge. Third Forth Bridge, Back and Forth Bridge....Kaye asks for listener's ideas!
