Just because I'm nosy.

I have only listed the names of the sunday papers where they're blatantly different to their daily counterpart. Probably the list is far from concise, but then there's only 10 options.

I'm a lily-livered Guardian reader myself, Observer on Sundays, although I'm contemplating on giving up the latter as it's getting worse and worse, the best part about it is the foodie magazine and even that one seems to be going downhill. I do love the Garuniad during the week though, and actually actively miss it when I'm on holiday and can't get hold of it.
 
None! I really should coz i'm totally clueless about everything. Sometimes i'll glance at my local, but it generally gets shoved to one side til i use it in the cat litter tray!
 
Guardian
Independant
Belfast Telegraph
Newtownards Chronicle

We're big fans of newspapers here...they're also very useful for lighting our fire and stoves! haha
 
I don't read papers.

I have the BBC News website as my homepage, and I always check it, Skynews and CNN each day.

If I want a bit of gossip or just a good giggle I'll click on the Mail or the Express sites!

:lol:
 
I olike the Guardian on a wednesday as I worked in Community Justice and it had relevant articles but i don't buy newspapers that much anymore. OH keeps bringing home the daily star for me to read (bless him :roll: ) and he likes the NOTW occasionally on a sunday (and I like the gossip). On a friday I go round my grandpa's house and read his Daily Mail and spend an hour ranting over their views and immigrant paranoia lol.
 
OH reads The Sun when hes at work, he brings it home sometimes, so thats the only paper I get to read.

But being a sham I get to watch all the day time news a girl could want!
 
I read the local papers; Press & Journal and the Evening Express as I used to work for them!!
 
the sun because its the only paper i can understand :wink:
oh and the local one
xx
 
I save on paper and money and read my news online via BBC News usually. Prefer to read it the day it happens not the day after. And get an impartial view.

I also read the Times online, Telegraph and Australian newsites also so I can keep up with whats happening back there.
 
I don't buy newspapers, but I do read the news online daily.
I read reuters, bbc, Independent, times

But I also read the sun and sky, its more for a light look at the 'news'. I'm a sucker for a bit of celeb gossip! :lol:
 
I usually read the BBC news too. If I get a paper it is usually The Times. I have to confess that I read the Sun Online too - simply because I absolutely adore very way it is written...

e.g.
Any other paper - "Mrs Brown, 33, is in a stable condition.'

Sun translation - "The busty blonde, 33, is clinging on to life. Cut out our 'Support Mrs Brown' poster and stick it on your window."
 
tbh its rare these days but if i do its:
Guardian
Independant
mirror (which i cant be arsed with either but the OH brings it in occasionally)

my mum reads the mail, which i hate. (she used to be a socialist, but has changed in last 5 years :twisted: )

i wouldnt touch the sun with a barge pole lol

My bloke's parents read the Mail and it is a guilty pleasure of mine to read it whenever we go visit them, and then rant over their views and immigrant paranoia. Although, there was an Express reader at my old job, and that rag is even worse for the paranoia bits.
 
the metro and the manchester evening news- why? because theyre free! :lol:

i only read them on mondays tuesdays and saturdays (saturdays i read fridays issue) when i'm at work.

ur more likely to catch me with my nose in look or grazia magazine than a newspaper though!

I HATE the Sun.... for obvious reasons, Liverpool Hillsbrough thing...



I read the Mirror.....
I used to read the Daily Mail but OH reads the Mirror so...
 
I read the Metro (because it's free) and our local papers. I usually read the news on the BBC website.
