Who still buys a daily newspaper and why 21:36 - May 31 with 1240 viewsgtsb1966

the paper of your choice. I buy the i. Concise reading but mainly because of the cryptic crossword. I know it's cheaper online but to me it just isn't the same.

I get one 'given' to me when I buy overpriced food in Waitrose for my neighbours who continue to self-isolate.

I do that because I (or they) have already paid for it in the overpriced food.... but it is rather nice to have a proper paper occasionally - just like it is nice to have a proper book.

Said neighbours are both having papers delivered by the way.... presumably they like to risk picking up a virus as well as enjoy reading a paper.

In March the answer would have been a flat no, but I've bought the Guardian on a Saturday since we've been in lockdown - partly for something else to read, partly for the puzzles.

Not sure whether I will once things are more normal, I get the Economist weekly and have an FT subscription so normally have plenty to read. Maybe I will because I won't be going to watch football for a good while longer.

Occasionally buy the Yorkshire Post on the weekend, good sections and puzzles. I'd like to be able to get hold of a print version of the EADT sometimes too.

More interested in local news which is tricky to get on their websites.

Also, doing the crossword online isn't quite so satisfying either to fill in.

Btw - does anyone know how to get tippex off a laptop screen?

Which is best for puzzles etc., at the moment? Particularly in terms of the big weekend supplements.

Regularly get the "i" - is indeed consise and I too like the puzzles.

The opinion pieces around the time of Brexit (remember that!) were well written though their lack of reporters does tend to mean I look elsewhere for the actual latest news events.
