Number 28 of '50 key events in world and folk music' apparently. http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/jun/16/sandy-denny-joins-fairportBut what is this 'Liege and Leaf' of which they speak ?  Should we look out for subtle references on 'What We Did On Our Holidays' ? Maybe 'Quarter o' Geer' ? 'Red Leb and Acapulco Gold' ? |

But what is this 'Liege and Leaf' of which they speak ? It's funny because they got it right in the first paragraph! Numpties. |

For the school library, innit. Jules the kids read paper newspapers! what about their i-phones? I read the following on another forum this morning whilst sitting in my empty shop: 'A secondary school nearby has completely removed their library and the current generation spend their lives surfing and texting on portable devices. The next generation will totally grow up with ipad-type devices, which like mobile phones are now - will be integral to their being.' I had to stop reading and do something else as too much on that subject always gives me a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. who actually, apart from people who get them buckshee, does read paper papers? apart from the racing post,obviously My mum still gets the Times delivered everyday and reads it from cover to cover. |

Reading a newspaper online will soon cost as much as the paper version (just ask Rupert). It's the experience which is entirely irreplaceable. I'm resistant enough to Kindles etc with regards to books. With newspapers, the aesthetics are as important as the content. I'm only just coming to terms with the end of daily broadsheets (Telegraph excepted which obviously rules that one out)...  |

Precisely. Nothing online has yet replicated the experience of actually reading, rather than skimming, a newspaper or a magazine. And I too pay for papers as a Guardian subscriber. |
