    But illuminating. Who'd have thought there'd be so many things you didn't want to buy?😉

    A bit of investigating of Adblock indicates that it doesn't hold the settings if the browser is closed and reopened.  That was never a problem in the past, but at least I know what I need to do to stop the b****y adverts.

    When I was working as an IFA, one of my client companies owned the local abbatoir and I had the job of talking to the employees about their pension scheme. There was I (a tiny blue-eyed blonde) in a suit and high heels sitting opposite a chap covered in blood and guts with bloody wellies. The smell was enough to make you heave and I couldn't wait to leave. Not one of my best memories of that job.

    I have just watched Friday's episode of GW.  Two bloody jungly gardens in one half hour show???  Enough already!

    I watched a cookery programme yesterday ... the camera kept veering off the food and focussing on closeups of a vase of erysimums ... enough already 🤣

    Endless quiz programmes,  not only daytime tv but now spilling into the evening,   people wanting to buy a new house, other people’s loft junk, programmes with ordinary public in them, all done for cheap, they only need to pay their train fares and supply a lunch, 
    ok,there’s the off button, which is used all the time, but we have paid a licence fee. 

    Jungle gardens,  how many of us want to make one of those, all right in inner city, it’s a jungle anyway, horrible in the country. 

    And to add to that, I’m still not well😱😱😱
