About Me

I ramble about a number of things - but travel experiences, movies and music feature prominently. See my label cloud for a better idea. All comnments and opinions on this blog are my own, and do not in any way reflect the opinions/position of my employer (past/current/future).

Free Sunday Times



For the past few weekends, there has been a pile of free Sunday Times by the gate of the complex. It seems that it was part of a promotion, which has now sadly ended. But despite the generous offer for a discounted subscription, I am unlikely to take it up.

Although I enjoyed reading the newspaper, and it's wide variety of articles - I was not really reading the paper for news. That is because, most of the articles were not new, and already well covered in other outlets. The cover stories and opinion pieces were excellent however.

Ultimately, I may consider getting a digital only subscription. The cost of R80 a month is actually not that high considering the general high quality of the articles. But I am probably too lazy to actually get one.
