I started reading the Guardian when I moved to England in 1997 because my boyfriend read it and introduced me to the paper. I really liked the quick crossword and used to love Jim Shelley in the Guide. As a teacher, would bring bits in for the class too.
My husband and I are subscribers and I read G2 with my lunch every day. On Thursdays, I enjoy reading the cooking section with features from Felicity Cloake, the news feature and Angela Hartnett's recipes.
But I don't like film & music conflated with G2 as it can cause domestic strife – previously my husband would take the film & music section and I would read G2.
I like the letters pages. I'm quite leftwing and interested in the debate about private and state school education, though sometimes I might like to read an alternative view about a certain issue. I like Sam Wollaston and his TV pieces. I follow him on Twitter and read his car bits. My husband thinks it's odd that I read the motoring column when I know nothing about cars but it's really funny. I love Simon Hattenstone's interviews, especially the recent John Cooper Clarke interview. I read the paper every day and believe in its integrity. I'll always read it.
