I used to read The Metro on my daily commute hoping one of the Rush Hour Crushes were about me. They never were

Absolutely not. But I do the crossword in the metro whenever I’m out

I read The Metro if someone has brought it in and left it in the break room. Occasionally buy the Glasgow Times for something to read if I'm bored.

I used to buy a paper regularly. For at least 10 years I’ve been subscribing to The Times online which used to be really good. Nowadays it’s getting more and more tabloid like though.

I don’t buy a newspaper but will read free newsprints like The Metro and when travelling I always grab the newspapers in the airport lounge before going to the departure gate.
