Coming up in Thursday’s Courier Politics, octopus, serious fraud and beards

Coming up in Thursday’s Courier  Politics, octopus, serious fraud and beards

There has, in some quarters, been a subtle yet persistent sense that Thursday is some form of an ordinary day with few stand-out redeeming features to differentiate it from many of the other days of the week.

Well not this Thursday. No way.

This Thursday will be an absolute corker.

For a start we have more, much more, on the killer* octopus which washed up on an Angus beach.

Meanwhile, this Labour leadership stuff is moving on apace.

Nobody wanted the job, then one person wanted it (Ms Boyack) and now two (Mr Findlay). Others may well be set to follow (Mr Murphy per chance?). Our political editor Kieran Andrews was labouring (guffaw) all day just so he can bring you the very latest.

If it’s controversy you are after then my word we have it for you. And once again it comes in the devilish/utterly benign (delete as per personal prejudice) shape of wind turbines,

Now the industrial beasts/renewable energy-creators are being blamed for killing numerous birds of prey.

Fly down to your newsagent (but beware the deadly rotating blades of doom) for all the very latest.

Ahh Tesco.

Once the nation’s favourite grocer, now a firm under investigation by the serious fraud office.

What the heck has gone wrong?

It is a question that has vexed our business editor Graham Huband. But he is an unflappable kind of fellow so set about discovering more in a most efficient manner. He reveals the fruits of his labour in Thursday’s Courier. Braw.

Beards. Love them or hate them, you simply cannot (and indeed must not) ignore them. We pay homage to hairy faces (I can’t put in any more plainly than that) in your tantalisingly-close-to-the-end-of-the-working-week edition.

What a lot of really quite wonderful stories we have for you (please be assured the foregoing is nothing more than a tiny taster of the full feast on offer). For the full whack be sure to pick up your Courier. Or why not try our great digital edition?

*There is no evidence it ever was, or indeed is, any kind of a killer.
