We don't buy a daily paper and have recently cancelled the Sunday Telegraph which we had bought for years. It was often the following Saturday by the time I caught up with the reading, - it's hardly news then. We find we just don't have time to read papers during the day but I do like to catch the news reports on TV.

When I visit england I like the Sunday Times.

Have just heard that The Times newspaper, is changing size, after 216 yrs!.. We have Express, Mail and local evening paper!..

No Elaine, not bosses pet, but the only one in the department who could do an English crossword. In our lunchtime too, so no time wasted. Never good at cryptograms Di, do try now and again, both Dutch and English, but my brain doesn't pick up the cryptogram author's ideas. Sylvia xxx

OOOOh bosses pet were we Sylvia ? nudge, nudge, wink, wink, Actually I used the thirty quid to go towards a pair of shoes for my daughter. Who needed them at the time. Elaine x

I suppose you can buy a lot more SUNS with thirty pounds. I don't know what a daily newspaper costs anymore. I like The Telegraph, and used to read The Times and do the crossword puzzles with my boss in our lunch hour here. Sylvia xxx

I read the Sun Ok Its not the times I know, but it is to the point & has loads of humor dotted in. AND its earnt me thirty quid because in the last year Ive had 2 letters published ! Elaine x

I would love to have the time to read a newspaper properly, but mostly 'skim' them and read the articles which interest me most. I listen to the news on radio 4 alot though, you can fit that in whilst getting on with other things!

Which is your favourite newspaper? I mean a paper with news and not full of pictures etc. What interests you most in the paper? Do you read it thoroughly every day? Sylvia xxx
