Buying the Mail on Sunday could mean you are still reading it mid week as there is such a lot to read and all for £1.00.

The paper itself is 128 pages of news, gardening, travel, winter sports, travel log, holidays abroad and at home, sports mail and cartoons. If I went into each of these individually this opinion could take as long as the mail paper itself to read.

Like all Sunday papers and week day come to that, it does come with its fair share of additional papers and bits and pieces a lot of which go straight into the bin but anyuone who buys a paper expects this nowadays.

The additional magazine sections are good though.

Financial Mail

which you can also find on the internet (www.thisismoney.co.uk) gives the usual things like Midus, Markets, shares, personal finance and enterprise.

Review

this covers television, film, music, theatre, books and letters and my favourite Quotes of the week. Two good ones this week are one letter to the Guardian "Is the wind that carries the foot and mouth virus five, ten or 15 miles the same wind that carries pollen from GM crops 300 metres" and a quote from that wonderful man whom I love Spike Milligan when receiving an honorary Knighthood from Prince Charles this week "Do you know there are no dry cleaners in Peru?"

Lastly the You magazine with 90 odd pages covering features, Living, Fashion, beauty, food, health and relationships and of course the You crossword which you can (if you can) send off for top prize of £100

All in all you get all this for £1.00 which must be a bargain.
