    One of the top men in DC Thompson, John Ryan, was a good friend of mine.

    Plenty of features on Scottish islands etc as far as I remember.
    It had the same kind of colour photo treatment on the front cover. Not a full-on glossy, but cheap four-colour dot printing on newsprint which gave it a distinctive look on the newstands compared to everything else. I suspect that was part of its appeal as time passed - it rooted itself firmly in 1930, 40 and 50s with tech to match.

    At least they came quickly, my neighbors got robbed last year and the guards took 45 mins to come to the house, lads were well gone by the time anyone came.

    Lots of capital Ts robbing these days.
    Rte / media has no right to pretend to be sympathetic towards the victims while they encourage the perpetrators behaviour relentlessly.

    They do drivebys outside my house atleast 3 times a day in various vans scoping the area out and doing random calls to houses.

    Obviously it wasn't a socialist newspaper - sort of double-speak in the title.

    People's Friend.

    They have a weekly newspaper (Sunday Post) with a similar tack - its a right wing tabloid but beyond the first few news pages it targets "heartwarming" stories etc; doesn't generally do any international news and has a lot of reader interaction sections. You can get it near the border but not in most of Ireland.

    Careful now or we'll have Liam Herrick and the Irish Council for Criminal Liberties on line 2.
