The boring Times is driving me nuts

[OwlHoot]

Having started a local contract a couple of weeks ago, I started buying a paper again to read on the tube. This has been the Times, out of habit. But it seems different to how it was only a couple of years ago, less substantial and frankly quite boring.

Then this morning I picked up the Metro, and flicking through it saw several articles on news items that weren't in the Times at all! So there's more to read, and more interesting stuff generally, in a freebie than in the shadow of the once venerable old Times.

I see it going the way of Computer Weekly within a couple of years.

I switched from the Times ages ago, try the 20p paper i, it has some good articles in it.
