This may be useful to some here, I read elsewhere that the Observer have said…

“We’d like to extend a special offer to our puzzle fans to take up an annual digital subscription now for 50% off in your first year. If you are already on one of our £1 trial subscriptions, you will be able to cancel that and take out this offer over the next month”.
