Karrinyup News

This is an excellent little newsagency with a great range of magazines and international newspapers. (It always strikes me as slightly curious that there are so many of the latter available in this city.) I tend to rock up here late in the afternoon and am always disappointed to find that the newspaper I used to work for has sold out for the day. I content myself with the magazine range instead: The Monthly, Harper’s, The New Yorker, The Economist, Time. I’ve even come across Monocle once or twice, too.
It’s nice to know that all these magazines are available to me in print just around the corner from where I live. I have less need for London’s Daily Telegraph, perhaps, but it’s nice to know that that’s available to me in print just around the corner from where I live as well. The stationary range is pretty solid, which is my way of saying that the store stocks the fine-​point black biros I like to write with and the mechanical pencil refills I need to write in my notebook. The service always comes with a smile and even though there’s a newsagency closer to where we usually park I’m more than happy to go out of my way. You don’t come across Monocle just anywhere, you know.
