  • I don't mind ads, but on mobile, there's one popping up over the buttons at the bottom. It's active before anything shows up, so when I try to tap a button, I automatically get taken to an advertiser's site that I did not want to visit.

    Could you do something about ads obscuring essential UI elements?

    • When that happens I turn my screen to landscape and the buttons appear at the top where they are clear of the advert. That's on my mobile. Maybe that would help you.

    • There are at least 3 other ways of moving around the site.

      1) Click the red button beneath the winning postcode to move to the next draw.

      2) Click the 3 short horizontal lines in the top right of the page which will offer you a menu to select other pages to move to.

      3) Use the dark blue menu lower down the page to move to another page.

    • Long standing issue I'm afraid. Good luck with getting around it !

    • This explains how to sort it .....

  • My horrible puppies are currently curled up on their bed nursing very sore bottoms (my hand is sore, so their bums must be). We went for a walk this afternoon, I fed them and Indi, made my tea and they were mooching around with Poppy for a while so I went in to watch the 6pm news. I noticed at around 6.30 that they were still outside and it was very, very quiet. Oooh dear… I walked outside quietly and peered round the corner. There they were, in the lawn, about 10” down the new mineshaft they were happily and energetically digging, my poor houseplant, which I put outside each summer, lying on the grass, compost everywhere, plant pot in a hundred pieces (I had just started clearing the lawn ready to mow it tomorrow) and a big piece broken off the plant. I grabbed Storm, Shad fled to a safe distance and I hauled no.1 pup indoors, smacked his bum, threw him on his bed and threatened him with dire consequences if he moved. Went back for no.2 pup, who avoided me and shot indoors. He got the same punishment. I then had to sweep all the earth, stones and torn up grass back into the hole, repot the plant, sweep the compost off the path… I am now in the lounge avoiding two sets of big brown eyes hoping they can come back and sit with me.

    Anyone want a garden excavator or two?

    • Please don’t smack or hit your dogs. They won’t know what the punishment is for. Only that you’re bringing pain. They won’t associate the deed with the cruelty- yes cruelty.

    • I was good at digging dens, but any lump of metal like a bomb💣 is game for making a fireplace, roof or door with.

      "Dad, why are we emigrating?"

      " Shut up & k eep digging son"

      [Wasn't that a Tea Ad with monkeys?]

    • Growing up in London, I used to try to "dig to China" (did anyody else do that?) on a cleared bombsite down the street where we all played.

      I never got very far, which may have been fortunate. A few years later, builders erecting a supermarket on the site found an old German bomb - still live!

    • Funnily enough, I was thinking of Passchendaele when I saw it!

    • Earlier in the year we had badgers visit, our back garden resembled the battle of the Somme, craters everywhere!!!

      We also have a herd of muntjac nearby, and they have been known to create havoc too...

    • That brought back memories of my dear departed dog. You know they should be punished, but feel so guilty for doing so. And as you say, those eyes. 😢😢💔

    • Shyboy, how weird as me and a friend did the same thing when I lived in London and like you didn't get far.

      Beth, I know I shouldn't laugh as I can only imagine the mess.

    • I thought I'd dig to Australia when I was about 8. Only got about a foot deep.

    • We were all young once ;-)

    • Ooh, naughty boys. There are testing your patience Beth8it!

  • Wife said she is leaving me because of my obsession with Wham!

    Ok I said but wake me up before you go go!!😜😜

    • I'm amused thank you.

    • How long ago did this happen?

      Round about last Christmas?

    • :-)

    • Did she leave you hanging round like a yoyo ??

  • After being driven bats by dozens of scam ads last night…not on here, I should point out… AI tells me…

    You are noticing a massive structural shift in how social media advertising works today. Over the last few years, the major platforms have essentially opened the floodgates to thousands of these identical "ghost brands" selling everything from leather bags and winter jackets to power tools and kitchen gadgets.

    It feels like a coordinated wave because it is powered by an interconnected ecosystem of automated tools.

    Why You Are Seeing an Explosion of These Ads

    • The AI Creative Engine: Scam operators no longer need to spend weeks filming ads. They use AI scraping tools to find high-performing videos from genuine independent makers, use AI software to face-swap or digitally alter the logos, and generate 50 variations of the same ad script in seconds.

    • Algorithmic Whack-A-Mole: When an algorithm hooks you with one "heritage" ad, it flags your profile as someone interested in premium or traditional goods. Instantly, competing dropshipping syndicates bid to show you their clones.

    • Wholesale Copy-and-Paste Storefronts: These networks don't build websites from scratch. They use pre-made templates on platforms like Shopify. If one store gets shut down or banned by Facebook for high report volumes, they can buy a new cheap domain name, upload the exact same catalog, and be back online within an hour.

    The 4 Red Flags to Spot a "Drop-Shop" in 3 Seconds

    You can instantly screen out 95% of these junk ads before clicking them by checking for these markers:

    1. The "About Us" Test: Read their story. If it uses vague, overly emotional phrasing like "Born out of a passion for timeless elegance" or "Frustrated by high-street prices, two brothers set out to..." without naming the founders, naming the town they are based in, or showing actual photos of their specific team, it is almost certainly a generic script.

    2. No Local Address or Phone Number: Real premium brands want you to contact them. If a site's "Contact Us" page only features a web form or a generic email address (like support@brand.com) and completely lacks a physical registered business address or a UK/Irish phone number, close the tab.

    3. The Countdown Timer Trap: Premium, high-quality, artisan goods are rarely sold using aggressive, flashing ticker countdowns ("Sale ends in 14 minutes!") or artificial inventory alerts ("Only 3 left in stock!").

    4. Reverse Image Searching: If a product looks great, right-click the image and search it using Google Images. If the exact same photo pops up on cheap marketplace sites for a fraction of the cost, you know exactly where it's coming from.

    • I don't use social media, but still get the same long Ads every 5 mins in YouTube films, I can't wait for the "Skip Ad" button to appear, ... more annoying when the short Ad finishes just before the progress bar reaches the point where it appears & they start a 2nd longer Ad instead.

    • I would repeat my previous advice.

      Use an ad blocker. Disable it when you want - on PMP, for example - but enable it again for general browsing. Although some sites are getting wise to this now!

      Don't post every detail of your personal life onto social media - if we know you, we already know your news; if we don't know you, it's only going to be of interest if we have malicious intent. Oh, and NEVER post identifiable details of your children - the school they attend, their names, things like that. You would not walk through the City Centre handing out this information to total strangers, so why do it online? Ditto, if you must tell us about your holidays, do it when you get back. Burglars use the Internet too, you know.

      Use an internet eraser to remove cookies, so that you're not still plagued with adverts for holidays in Egypt just because, once upon a time many years ago, you looked to see where Sharm al whatever is. Even better, go into 'dark mode' ('private browsing') so that searches and cookies don't get saved to your computer in the first place.

      And remember, if you wouldn't buy it in a shop, why buy it online?

    • Thanks for the info. I've noticed a trend of ads on Facebook, etc, where the post is a long, long story - and highly emotional - which all leads to them recommending something which will solve the problem. eg. As I've mentioned my old, ailing cats to my friends on there they will give me an emotional story about how a cat was saved from the brink of death by eating their special cat food. Or, as I've also mentioned my spine arthritis on there I'll get a long emotional story about someone who could hardly walk who was now out hiking again after using their special stuff. It's incredibly annoying. One to watch out for if you're on social media. I see a lot of people responding to such posts as if they believe they're real. :-/

    • Mind boggling info there - thank you for the info.

    • Ditto. 👍

    • Thank you for the information.

    • Interesting read there @ NN, but can i suggest. You try to ignore them, i don't want you going doolally on me ;-)

    • Many thanks for this, Avatar with No Name!
