I remember these guys starting out and it was brilliant. They were like a rebel music magazine,…read morebattling it out against Sandman et al, who we all used to find massively boring. We always used to read the music magazines when I worked in a bar, mostly to read recent band reviews, but more mostly to look at the pictures and pass the time in the quiet hours. No Title is just that little bit different though. Actually reading the opinions within did not make me want to drink the bar dry with boredom - they were actually fun, well written and encouraging when it came to bands I didn't know about. Also, their graphics and design are second to none - truly fantastic and exciting to view. They've had more interesting title pages featuring local artists than I could count - let's just say *lots* for argument's sake. If you come across a copy pick it up, you'll find it'll be a real keeper. No Title is vibrant, colourful, well written and relevant to all music lovers in Leeds.

This glossy, alternative music magazine usually has cover designs to catch anyone's eye if you…read morealready happen to be hanging out in one of Leeds fine music venues. It is a free magazine with reviews, interviews and the articles on the music scene around Leeds. And its really good! Not only does it inform the readers, it entertains us too! They have all the latest gossip on things like the line up for Leeds Festival, Moor Music Festival, new nights at Subculture, gigs on at the Brudenel Social...I could go on. You can find it in any of the independent record shops, - Crash, Jumbo - pubs like The Chemic and The Fenton and bars - North Bar, Baby Jupiter and Dry Dock. Its available in about 50 places so you should stumble across one soon enough. And did I mention its FREE?

It sells mainly alcohol, tobacco, newspapers, sweets and small snacks and drinks. The shop isn't that big inside but it is usually quite busy and very popular as it's prices are very competitive. It is one of the best news agents in Leeds and certainly you will not find drinks any cheaper on the Headrow. Well worth a visit.

There is a wealth of nice glossy magazines out there for general consumption but there aren't…read moreactually too many that focus on the city. Absolute Leeds is one such publication. It's pretty to look at too. I like shiny, pretty things and this fits the bill. The same people behind the Yorkshire Post are behind it and it covers a good guide to some of the action unfolding in the area. You'll find plenty of features, ranging from local DJs to restaurant owners. The listings section also offers some suggestions for the upcoming month and as you'd expect the club listings let you know which hot spots to hit and when. It also manages not to be too "local" and offers more than a smattering of fashion, celebrity talk and a look at the world at large. On the downside, it does have rather too many advertorials for my liking but they need to pay the bills somehow. It's not the most in-depth look at all things Leeds but it's worth a few quid of your hard earned money from time to time.

I don't think Leeds would be the same without the rabble of men, of varying ages and beard lengths,…read morewho sit at their mini-counters, every day come rain or shine, proprieting their wares - in their case, hopefully, the Yorkshire Evening Post. For some reason, I feel the need to approach them like Big Issue sellers. Which, of course, they are not. They probably think of me as an idiot. Which, of course, I am. More importantly, the paper? It's a decent daily read. Compared to others, it's better. I like the weekend sections. The music stuff is good and the restaurant reviews are always reliable. Like this place then, eh? ;-)

It does feel like, since I've been here for so long, that I am now really more of a local than a long term visitor. It's not exactly high brow reading, but then what local paper is? The stories within are everything cutting edge about Yorkshire, all important restaurant reviews, night life information and cute local stories about schools and so on. It seems to have great coverage of all areas of Yorkshire, as opposed to focusing on the bigger cities, and where national news is most poignant the YEP will cover that too - such as the Iraq Inquiry. Their website is pretty reader friendly too. And, as Jonny mentions, it just wouldn't be the same without the army of old boys who steadfastly sell the local news at their local stands.

Attempts to get us to book for online advertising and print advertising there and then on the phone. Not professional. Will never work with this company again.
