I hate shiny magazine and catalogue covers. Even with just one on top of the other they slither and slide around and do my blood pressure no good. :rant:
Top marks to DTBrown's latest seed catalogue which is nice and papery - and just as appealing as all that shiny stuff. I'm sure the shiny finish is bad for the environment. Something so horrid is bound to be ::) :tree:.
Am I on my own here?

It's worse than Izal :innocent:

I find shiny paper really hard to read - I suspect it scores pretty low in accessibility.
I find a lot of magazines either use a coloured type face or coloured paper and I find that difficult and tedious to read too. Must be getting old ::)

:roflanim: My Mum used to buy that - years of torture.

No you are not! You can't even burn them! >:(

Shiny is no good for lighting the log burner :rant: and I would put anywhere near my compost heap with all that chemical.
But shiny magazines mop up well when somebody spills a drink at the table where I've been reading. A common occurrence with the clumsy man or energetic boys in this house ::)

My nan liked to use it and moaned because my mum insisted on getting soft stuff. Nan liked Izal because it had the word Medicated on it.

I use one sheet of newspaper, then the shiny stuff, I find once the newspaper is alight other stuff gets going easier.
