The Daily Mail (UK)

I notice there have been a few requests for the Daily Mail, so thought I'd share my recipe for it - oh the shame!

For overseas visitors, the Daily Mail is a popular tabloid paper in the UK. It has very conservative views, with a light sprinkly of paranoia and a side salad of zenophobia. It's the paper you read to find out what the man on the Clapham omnibus is thinking, but wouldn't want to be seen reading it by your peers.

The print version of the Daily Mail is a little image heavy so I'm only downloading the first 50 of each feed, and the past 2 days of articles. This still generates nearly 20MB ePub files though!

Hope it's of use to someone.

Rufus.
