Not surprise.. just pointing out that it's a little perverse.

OK. Have fun with that

Anyway, I don't 'trawl' the Guardian - as has been noted here many times, I read the Guardian. For all its faults, it still has the best news coverage for a UK newspaper.


Unfortunately (though often amusingly), it also has the most bats**t-crazy and reality challenged columnists and opinion writers for a UK newspaper. And, yes, they do print things that deserve to be highlighted and mocked on a semi-regular basis.


Besides, I think any sane person would think Alanis Morrisette's advice was dangerous and should not have been printed.

Blimey, it is easy to wind up Guardian readers.

Nicely done.

I don't believe in God, but I do read the Guardian (and the Observer)


Both are in their own 'world' of bonkersness, but there's nothing close to them that I like to read


And the food sections of both are 'word' for the industry


The weekend FT is my anchor to a harsher reality and it's a pretty colour

    • Hello, I'm from Ireland and would love my children to be able to know the language - I can speak it but I'm not so good at teaching it. If there's anyone local who used to teach Irish at primary school (preferably Connemara Irish) and who'd like to tutor 3 boys aged 7-10 for an hour or two a week please do let me know. Thanks, Sarah
