Ok when you get hold of a paper how do you approach it?
Me,
I have a quick look at the front page for about 5 secs read the headlines then straight to the sports at the back, when I have poured over that I work my way quickly to the funnies, then go to the front and work my way through the paper to the middle then go to the back and read the bits and bobs inbetween the sports and the funnies. so what about you, sports :) , world issues :unsure: , page3 :o ;) ?
my family gets the herald...i read the diary (the funny bit) and that's about it :)
a student who only reads the herald :o ......shame on you <_<Quote:

;)
my family get the Daily Star, and the Daily Sport.
sometimes i don't get the chance to use them if it's raining, as we use them to plug the holes in the roof in the half-of-a-caravan that the 18 of us live in.
j/k. we get a few newspapers, usually a "serious" paper and a tabloid, to get both sides of the news lol.
You've just reminded me that its been years since i actually bought a newspaper - i read all the news on the web or TV. I do however read magazines though, usually from the back first - dunno why, just have done - even with newspapers.

I read The Guardian...I just skim the front page, check out the sport and then read the G2 supplement...then I'll browse the nes in the main part.
I get The Sun and I tend to scan the front page scan the back page and then head for page 3 :rolleyes:
I have my "Volkskrant"(dutch "lefty" newspaper) delivered every morning to my
door for 26 years now.
First thing i do in the morning, a large expresso and thoroughly reading my paper.
I'm a little addicted to knowing what goes on in this world..........
