Guardian rage

Thanks to Bob Piper for picking up this letter in the Guardian

Has anyone else suffered Guardian rage from strangers? While queueing to buy the paper recently I was accosted in one shop by a lady in trousers cut from a plaid horse blanket who insisted on detailing all the illegal hunting activity in my area, and in another accused by a Mervyn King lookalike of personally driving the country to economic ruin. More worrying was being shouted at by an old lady for having it tucked under my arm while buying the Big Issue. Glancing back as I fled, I saw her buying a copy of the magazine and chatting with the seller. So it was definitely the newspaper that upset her. Are we to be reduced to carrying it home in shame and a plain brown wrapper?
