I'm not sure if we're all getting the same ones. Mine are M&S. Most of us love M&S food I think, but this stuff sounds disgusting.

Crispy beefburger spring rolls.
What looks like baked beans on toast.

Yuck! I'm on a constant diet and consequently, any buffet is attractive to me. But I would not be tempted at all by those. I actually feel a bit nauseous looking at them.

It's getting that I don't want to look anything up to buy on-line because I start getting these pop-ups about it. Drives me mad.

Download an adblocker. They're free.

There are many companies who will visit your home to iron out computing problems. Perhaps it would be worth paying for someone to call. Make a list of everything that needs to be sorted in advance.

Just looked at ad blockers. Which ones are reputable? Any advice from others please as to which one to choose.

I downloaded adblocker plus (I think!) because I found the video ads in the lower right corner really annoying. There was an instant change, but now when I log in, the ads have reappeared. Am I missing something?

The adblocker doesn't seem to work on an Android device.
I don't get any on the PC even without an adblocker being installed.
They are intensely annoying.

Having just had beans on toast for lunch, Gagojo, I really don't think that I'd fancy it as a delicate canape!
