Quality journalism.
I have to confess to being amazed that any editor can let the following be published.....
"Alworths, which will flog a range of stock......."

I can't imagine that line was taken straight from the Alworths PR.

Nice to see that last week that got Mitchell Carey's name wrong, reporting this sad death - he was put as Mitchell Casey!!

I actually spat my coffee out when I read that this morning, that is truly awful. How did the editor let it get past the print run?
(oh, and Ewoowar - you need an adjective before the word 'quality'; ie - 'superb' or 'poor'. I'll get me coat) [8)].

I re-read the paper after I saw your post as I was sure that was not what I had read but it is not written in the same way there thankfully!
