Great news - you can!  The popular (with Keith Hann and a few members of his extended family) Keith Hann column in The Journal, Newcastle upon Tyne, has been appearing every Tuesday since February 2006, apart from an eight week hiatus in the early autum of that year, caused by a minor difference of opinion about the appropriateness of some jokes about suicide bombers and economic migrants

If Keith can summon up the energy and some suitable inspiration, a further column on business matters in The Journal's award-winning Northern Business Daily section may also be expected to appear on the first Wednesday of each month.

The Journal is obtainable at all good newsagents in North East England.  If you have the great misfortune to live elsewhere, the best idea would be to move. Failing that you can subscribe to the excellent online edition at http://thejournal.newspaperdirect.com or read a growing selection of Keith's past columns at www.keithhann-whyohwhy.com

The following pages feature some examples of what you have been missing.
