    I found the one where a woman dreams that all her teeth have fallen out ( mouthwash advert) really annoying . Having said that ( fingers crossed) I haven't seen it yet tonight but yesterday it seemed to be following me aroundimage

    You will develop your own mental ad blocker. I am aware of them but rarely 'see' them. Let the force be with you!

    Nothing is free. This site costs money to run. The alternative would be subscriptions which would reduce the number of forum members which would be a shame

    I use Firefox and have the Ad Blocker on so I never see any adverts. It would drive me nuts if they were blinking or moving about whilst I was trying to read threads etc. Sympathies aym280

    I'd like an ad blocker - but have looked at the App Store and have no idea which is the best one for my iPad, to increase my enjoyment of this forum. Advice would be much appreciated. I'm getting quite dizzy from moving ads ....

    I've no idea if it'll work on an ipad, I'm on a laptop, but I just went on Google and typed in adblock and followed the instructions. No apps no nothin! image
