You get the prog delivered to your (or Mark Taylor's) house.

Fixed that for you.

BAH! In my drunkeness I have come across as a mean and nasty grammar Nazi, what the Finns would call a pilkunnussija; a 'comma-fucker'. For this I apologize, and also for the double post

I, however, AM a grammar Nazi and, as a plural of 'apostrophe', apostropes doesn't need an apostrope!  :lol:

"Apostrope" does, however, need an 'h'.

Tricky things, these grammar posts. ;-)

My Saturday goes thusly: I have negotiated the lie in and our postie comes at about 9.30. The missus wakes me up with a kiss, the prog, scrambled eggs and a cuppa. I am then left alone to devour the prog and my brekkie before trying to bag the prog thread. What could be nicer than that? I am the king of my castle on a Saturday!

The only con is sometimes, when you're really excited for a prog (e.g. Final ep of Dante,) your Saturday lie in is ruined cos you can't sleep!

Alas negotiation implies there's some pay back in the end. For example in my mind now on Sunday morning your up at 4.30am chopping wood, milking the cows and getting the coal from the cellar?

All this talk of "getting the money together" has me thinking he's talking about an annual sub. Why not pay monthly?

How astute Colin. Sunday, of course, is her turn when I have to entertain the littlun in near silence as a gnat's fart would wake up my missus.

Still, subs rule! It's a no brainer.

Thanks for all the helpful advice, Im going to go for a monthly sub for 2000AD or get my nan to get me the £15
one for both. (It might sound horrible but she buys me a magazine sub every year, I am a little tired of bird life!)
