A new favourite newspaper!

I never feel quite right on weekends unless I can sit down with a coffee and read one of the great weekend edition newspapers.

In London it was the Guardian on Saturday that I read religiously (formerly the Manchester Guardian). Sometimes I'd pick up the Guardian during the week but found it was far too much about politics. The Saturday version is much more rounded, with great sports, travel, and review sections. Once in Dublin I still kept reading the same Guardian, but was feeling a bit strange reading a UK paper with no Irish content.

But hey, problem solved, and I now have a new favourite newspaper. I still read the Guardian cover to cover on Saturdays, but now Sunday mornings are reserved for the Sunday Times, Irish edition. The Guardian is considered a centre-left paper, and the Sunday Times centre-right, so I figure in the end I'll have a balanced view of the news.

Far better than any of the papers in the USA or Canada....way, way better.
