This is not some something I do, but on Monday I noticed there was a Telegraph in among the UK papers, so I pulled it out together with a solitary Times (This is a very rare occurrence) I was about to compare prices, before deciding which to buy when suddenly a member of the staff, pulled the Telegraph out of my hand, saying "you must not read the papers" and then marched off. I didn't have the time to stop and call a Manager and eventually bought the Times i.e. 4.5Euro. Be warned.

Sophie, it’s called grazing. Obviously they want people to buy their papers. As you did.

It really infuriates them if you do the crossword

No, because then 'Sophie' would be there for days!

It really annoys them if you don't put it back when you return from the loo!

Ah, that's why Sophie wrote 'a member of the staff, pulled the Telegraph out of my hand, saying "you must not read the papers"'

Can't beat having a paid digital subscription to the UK nationals i.e. Times, Telegraph. Saves a fortune over having to buy locally, don't have to travel to get it and you can read on your tablet, phone or PC.

I always read the whole paper first before buying it. How else can I know if I want it????

As it happens I've never bought one as once I've read it it seems pretty pointless!

Finally, If I was guilty then and also in the past of being "paper grazer" I would feel suitably admonished, but I wasn't and don't. BTW Groucho, I'd be standing there for weeks not days, if it was the Times crossword.
