Don't want your free copy of the Sun?


Put it to good use:

For the non UK readers who may stumble upon my dog-related ramblings, the Sun newspaper offered a free World Cup commemorative issue to large swathes of the population. Most people weren't that fussed, but some got terribly exercised by a dispute involving Liverpool area postmen and their desire not to deliver the paper based on the historical reporting of the Sun around the Hillsborough Tragedy (more information here if interested). Seem straightforward enough - don't want it, don't read it maybe? Or, as happened in our house - it was instantly repurposed into toys, without my ever having to undergo the bother of reading about a sport I don't like in a paper that I avoid.
