    Rolled up newspaper, as much as is necessary and then wrapped in plastic carrier bags and then sellotaped to keep in shape. The plastic bags stops all that horrid printers ink transferring to fingers. Works really well!

    The Daily Mail's ink doesn;t come off on your fingers - they use a special one.

    But buying the Mail may be too much shame!!

    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    I had a thought - what about old glossy magazines? They're hefty and tall.
