Why - what's up with it Dongle?

I read the Daily Mail, for which I generally get a lot of stick!

I find the opinion pieces (columnists) aren't as good, with one or two exceptions.

Also it's not been the same since Pass Notes was axed :(

I used to buy it every Monday for the media section; but I got bored of it, and switched to the Independent.

The only newspapers I buy now are the awful tabloids, just in case there's any Showbiz stuff in 'em.

I must admit Dongle I bought it the other day, and was very disappointed, as it just wasn't as good as it usually is. There were a couple of good articles in G2 but that was it.

Yes. And it's fairly expensive.

I now generally choose which newspaper to buy depending on what catches my eye on the front page.

I only buy newspapers if they’ve got something on offer that I want – and then I usually forget and don’t get it anyway.

They're doing a series of free Michael Caine DVDs with the Mail at the moment. Those I must have! Mind you, I buy it anyway every day.

I didn’t use to like Michael Caine until I saw him in Cider House Rules and I saw how well he captured Dr Wilbur Larch’s character.
