I've had quite the collection of adverts on here, I must admit. But I don't think there's much we can do about it.

Grin and bear it, I'm afraid.

Are we getting paid for them to advertise on here?

Jim, the people who host the boards get money from the ads, which is why TPL doesn't cost anything to anyone (apart from a few quid every other year for the domain name which I pay).

If you run a Mozilla based browser like Firefox or Opera, you can get a plugin called Ad Block Plus, which ought to nuke them. I certainly don't get them any more....

Yes, I'm running adblock +. No, I'm not getting the commercials.

Sometimes I almost miss them.

Well someone has to pay for it.

We are very lucky someone pays the domain name <bow>

That's nothing.

Yesterday on Facebook, I was getting adverts for catheters and colostomy bags. And no, I most certainly have not been looking those up on Google!

Perhaps on some site somewhere, you made a typo when entering your DOB?

I think it's pretty random, I get home decor and credit card ads a lot, and am in the market for neither.
