Re: Fucking sick of the Daily Burnie/Record...

I read either the Herald or the Scotsman depending on what side of the country I am on. These days more the Scotsman because it amuses to see which side of the Unionist/independence debate it seems to be on from day to day.

I like the Herald. It's best on a Monday or a Thursday. I'm not sure why.

Re: Fucking sick of the Daily Burnie/Record...

The Guardian/Independent on weekdays and Times on Saturday - with the price worth it for Giles Coren's restaurant reviews alone. I rarely have time to read all through on a daily basis though which is a shame.

Re: Fucking sick of the Daily Burnie/Record...

I used to read the P and J (forgot to mention that - best selling newspaper in Scotland what with its 5 billion local editions) but only for the football - the news was pish. Random fact: I was in the P and J press rooms when the news about Dianas death broke and they had to frantically reset the presses.

The P and J reported the sinking of the Titanic as 'Aberdeenshire Man Drowned At Sea'
It's an OK read all the same. I tend to read it when I'm up Oban way.

So... you go somewhere where people excercise and they have copies of the Daily Fail...

You haven't joined the Hitler Youth by mistake have you?

Read The Economist. It's a red top, if you fancy, but it's hardcore.
