Face the facts: It's rubbish

I bought a copy of the Guardian for the first time in ages on Saturday. Advice given in the money section for allotment holders included 'Why not sell your spare produce at a roadside kiosk?'

Blimey! It's just laughable and a vivid reminder of why I gave up newspapers. I used to get so exasperated with the Observer for this sort of trite. I forget how many times they suggested I let my house out as a film set.

Mustn't blame the writers, I suppose. They've got oceans  of print to fill and fill it they must. But it does seem to me one of the many reasons that dead tree journalism is on the way out.
