Question arising from tidying up

What on earth is the point of the Thomson Local directory? I don't think I've used it once in my life (even before discovering the Internet) but it's been coming through the door for as long as I can remember (which in this case means at least back to the 1980s).

Have you ever used it?

ISTR that when I still lived with my parents it was better than the Yellow Pages for some purposes, though I don't now remember what they were. It may have been an artefact of where we lived and the respective areas covered.

Of course these days it has approx. 0 in it, so is useless.
