I only use my phone to browse this site and every page is littered with adverts. When I go to post I get full page adverts I have to close down to actually post.

Would you recommend that browser?

Thanks for the advice, I got Ad Blocker plus and it looks much better so far.

My long standing irritation with ads reached a new peak when I got 2 ads for firewood in the local area. I'd been chopping some wood for my son and daughter-in-law, and mentioned it on WhatsApp which I thought was encrypted and private.

Good job it was only firewood we were discussing!

Just bear in mind that blocking ads reduces revenue and makes it more likely the site will close. :o
