Since the job pages disappeared, the property adverts died and reviews of crappy little diesel cars took over I stopped buying newspapers.

When I do want to read yesterdays sports results, listen to opinion of some fat old tart and look at depressing headlines I'll get a free copy in McDonalds.

The SINDO.

It's sometimes more than I can bear midweek to wait for Barry Egan's pithy chronicles of being a ginger, hamster-faced shortarse inexplicably granted access to the bon mots of Irish models and socialites..

I seem to recall Barry did the stand up gigs back in the day, now that's when he was genuinely funny & a decent skin. Unless I imagined it all. Once you fall under the Sindo's shadow you undergo a metamorphosis...
