Reading Matter
Over at Lets See What Happens, Russell Davies has
included on his list of good intention type pledges that he would read a different magazine every week for the rest of his life (and recycle).
I’ve been thinking that it shouldn’t actually be too hard for everyone to have a go at doing the same. I mean, think about all the opportunities to read other people’s random magazines:
- Doctor’s waiting room
- Dentist’s waiting room
- Optician’s waiting room (I’m sensing a theme here…)
- Service reception of car dealership while they work out whats gone wrong this time and how many millions of pounds its going to cost to put it right
- At the hairdressers
- At the beauticians (ladies and very confident men only)
- Other people’s reception areas (normally a choice between the FT and Chemical Week/Pet Business World News/Building Today etc.)
I’ve made a start, I read an old copy of Good Housekeeping at the hairdressers, so I’m now an expert on the best way to clean a chopping board if nothing else.
