what magazines do *you* buy or subscribe to..

[lavender2]

and why? (have a few myself)

i have a subscription of 'red' coming to my house for the person who lived here before us. Also got a letter saying thank you for cancelling your subscription, it will be stopped in 2005!!

Me and DH subscribe to PC Gamer and SFX because, frankly, we are sad sad people with no life

Currently considering subscribing to Total Film as well, as we buy every issue of that and it would save us money.

eve
grand designs
junior p&b
time out

Top Gear - Both DH and I like it

BBC Good Food - DH

Heat / Closer / Star etc - Mine, for the low-brow celebrity gossip element. DH always takes the pss out of me for buying them, but he always* has a sneaky read

I read those celeb mags at work Nomedeplume...great imho

Granta

That sounds horribly highbrow until you realise it was a freebie (I got 6 months or a year free with something else). But then I am seriously considering keeping up the subscription when it runs out as it's a damn good read...

goodhousekeeping, eve, red, women& home, junior, house & garden, marieclaire, prima....not much time to read books but have time to read a whole article. Also use them for college & craft.

this is abit sad but i get bbc history mag, i just like history although not too heavy!

Good Housekeeping - Woman & Home, Good Homes, Ideal Home, Real Homes - why? cos I like 'em! Got to do something to fill in the time between mnetting

none at the moment!

used to get Nat Geo, Zest, Living Ect & Junior

oops just remembered I get Cdn Living........how could I forget?!

I'm a magazine slut and waste far too much money on anything that grabs my attention. Regularly buy : Red, She , In Style, Glamour, Heat. Occasionally buy THe Week, Private Eye, Empire.
Go through phases of buying decorating/DIY type magazines and Country Living etc, and the occasional Rolling Stone.

Country Living and New Stitches. I'm a sucker for Xmas magazines and am currently trying to restrain myself, esp as I still haven't read Delia's Xmas mag from last year!!

Buy Eve every month (hooked since reading Aloha's article on Thomcat and Lottie).

Also BBC Parenting as it's the most balanced parenting mag I've seen.

Good Housekeeping is passed to me every monthe from the MIL.

Sometimes buy Red and New Woman but usually only if there's a good freebie with them.

empire....buy various mags when i feel like an easy read...pick me up etc...I am also thinking about that new parenting mag..'the green parent' off to find a copy today!

I buy Eve every month (blame thomcat for that!)
I alos buy OK, Closer, Now for the celeb goss!

When I was off work for 3 weeks after my hernia op I wasn't allowed to do much (it was great!!) I became addicted to crap celebrity mags (OK in particular. Dh has now banned me from buying them - dd found my last one where I had hidden it under the bed!!!! - wot's this mummy? - damn caught out!! He says it addles my already grasshopper brain and that I might start aspiring - to what - bad hair, bad clothes and bad relationships -I don't think so). However, I have a yearning to know how Peter and Jordan and Brian and Kerry are doing? Just thought, I'm going for a hair cut on Friday - I can catch up then! - hurrah!!! I'm so sad!!

buy red every month and the waitrose food mag, and subscribe to french Elle (it's weekly), which is very different to the UK edition, much much funnier, and also looks at more interesting issues. Love it.

Don't have much time to read mags, but when I do usually company, although my friend usually gives me heat.

Eve
Red
She
Junior
The Word
Private Eye
Practical Parenting

Can't resist mags and have tried to give up but to no avail
elle vogue red living etc elle decor have a subscription to marie claire from my sister buy most house/design ones have to stop soon

Any that will pay me to write for them. Given the right financial encouragement I could develop a lasting passion for the Fish Fryers' Gazette.

avidly flicking thru Gut and the Lancet this week, but I only buy trash eg heat, unless someone classy like motherinferior is writing an article in say Junior P&B. have been known to buy Eve and She but never really found the ideal iykwim.

I can't bear any of the women's mags at all, they're all rubbish.

I blame this thread, while I was in Tesco this morning I picked up a BBC History mag Wouldn't even have looked on the rack for it otherwise...
