  • The BBC killed the paragraph

    Is it just me? Am I alone? The only one that thinks that the way the BBC writes it's articles is awful to read? They have taken to writing one sentence per paragraph.

    Sunday mornings is my time. I wake up early, usually around 5am, so that I can have a coffee and prepare my things for a morning ride. I’m a (Sunday) cyclist and have been cycling for many years. It’s a ritual that is not only good for physical health —I have a resting heart rate of someone may years younger— but it is very good for the mind too. Some Sundays I’m rewarded with the most beautiful scenery.
