I know that the Times and Independant have gone to the Tabloid size but your still can't really class them as being a 'tabloid' newspaper can you?

Could you not add in a "several" option?
Considering I would read a mixture of the Mirror, Times, Telegraph, Local Herald and Irish Independent on different days for various reasons.
If not, I will just vote the Times due to their fantastic Su Doku puzzles...a total of 9 included in this Saturdays, including 3 Fiendish, luvurly jubberly!

Given Rupert Murdoch's The Times is most popular, I don't think "intellectual " is quite the most appropriate word. :wink:

The Mail today carries a report about our local radio station sports reporter who look on a shop lifter. She wasn't part of the cotton wool culture, Don't suppose they'll make the link though :cry:

I read the sun and I make no apologies for it. During a day of (slightly) hard work I find a bit of light reading/entertainment a nice way to unwind. If this classes me as un/non intellectual then so be it.

Then again 'The Game' football supplement every monday in the Times is awesome. Roll on August.

I'm pretty sure The Daily Mail is the preferred read of the "Blue Rinse" brigade. Which also makes it the forum for the Conservative ladies.

nah, so long as there's one layer of 'clean' material first then it's allowed, which is why there's always a sheet of greaseproof paper in there
