I loved the Evening Standard there was a junior crossword in it and
cartoons i think. My dad used to bring it back from London every night and
I think there were other puzzles as well.
Comedians used to imitate the newspaper boys shouting Evening Standard as
it used to come out rather like "evenin' staddurd"

Janet if you are of that ilk, did you do the Arthur Mee Crosswords etc in
the Children's Newspaper or was it before your time ? ;-)
