bloody hell you lot show a cavalier attitude to your hard earned cash in these days of the tinterweb
How do you know it's hard-earned? We might only have the papers to have something to do while it rolls in from our gold mines. |

The piece concludes "Fairport mutated into the noble institution it remains; Denny, dead at 31, has proved irreplaceable".
Two evident truths.
As for the typos, well, it's the Guardina - I'd expect no loess.

They must have had complaints  : 'This article was amended on 16 June 2011. The original incorrectly called the album Liege & Leaf. This has been corrected.' |

They must have had complaints : 'This article was amended on 16 June 2011. The original incorrectly called the album Liege & Leaf. This has been corrected.' I went back and re-read the hard-copy version (yes, I buy it every day), and the Lief was correct the first time it was quoted in the article, then became Leaf the second and third times. I thought the final sentence (quoted by PaulT, above) redeemed whatever errors there might otherwise have been. DC |

I read a newspaper every day, and two on the weekend (not the Grauniad which I can't stomach). I like a newspaper, I try to complete the cryptic crossword every day, and there's no way Mike would take a i-Pad into the loo for his daily constitutional.  |

Someone should start a campaign for a Sunday issue! I've emailed them a few times to suggest it. |

Someone should start a campaign for a Sunday issue! I've emailed them a few times to suggest it. Over here, the best place to start campaigning is to its advertisers. If a publication is thinking of modifying or expanding its frequency, they are the first people asked. I once heard that UK papers relied more on circulation revenue, than advertising (the exact opposite in the States). I'm not sure if that's still the case, though. |
