I was conflicted between boycotting the newspaper; a genuine interest in its last issue; and a warm and comfy bed.

But did you get a copy of the last ever News of the World? What were your thoughts?

Thought about it, but as they put the e-version up for free, read that and didn’t bother.

The e-version (which I missed) is at http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/downloads/finalissue/pageflip.html

I purchased a copy, the fact the revenue was being split between three charities and the retailer swayed me. The anorak in me also wanted a piece of history.
