I believe so. It stops ads on everything as far as I'm aware.NapaAddick said:

Yes, but that then means you can't access some sites that rely on ads to pay for their running. A link last week to a local Sunderland newspapers online site being one as I couldn't read because of my ad blockerNapaAddick said:

Correct, don't use ad blocker if you want to read the Sunderland Chronicle online.golfaddick said:

Going to a wake (which is terrible anyway) and they have a memory book. So being a complete blockhead I write in in it as if I'm talking to the guy. What I failed to grasp is that his family are going to read it not him. So I put something that's a bit riskay (nothing personal)now i feel like crap about it. Not like I didn't before but this just adds to it. It's not that anoying I know but I don't know if there's a thread that describes my feelings.0

as long as you weren't reminiscing about him cheating on his wife with rent boys i think his family will quite like you talking to him rather than just writing that they have your sympathiesKarim_myBagheri said:Going to a wake (which is terrible anyway) and they have a memory book.

Pretty much everything. If the sea at Scarborough wasn’t so bloody cold I’d be seriously considering doing a Reggie Perrin.2

Don't beat yourself up about it. His family might actually appreciate you writing to him rather than them, it's more personal.Karim_myBagheri said:Going to a wake (which is terrible anyway) and they have a memory book.

Following on from adblocker is there anyway of getting rid of always agreeing cookie policies? I'd hoped once you did it for a newspaper etc that was it, but seemingly not!1

I can just about forgive Newsthump because their 'Whatever' button amuses me. Well, it did once. Probably. The others drive me mad, especially the ones that have a statement saying that it's to protect my privacy or some other such nonsense. How can consistently asking me the same inane question possibly protect me from anything?bolloxbolder said:Following on from adblocker is there anyway of getting rid of always agreeing cookie policies?

You man you always have to agree with them?snowinberlin said:parents who constantly argue with their children
So pleased we swerved the offspring thing...

no, it's just this particular poor parenting where the child has successfully dragged the parent to their level and their relationship seems to be continual tit for tat squabbling and said parent trying to assert authority using a louder voice. If you have an intelligence advantage, use it.Algarveaddick said:

People (usually kids), who go into a local mini supermarket or corner shop to buy a cold drink.
Now.........the cold drinks cabinet has a glass front on it so you can see what’s inside, that’s the bloody idea........so why the feck do they find it necessary to open the door whilst they stand there looking into the fridge cabinet whilst making their choice and letting all the cold air out, mind bogglingly ridiculous......the dopey TWATS!!!!0 -
People queuing up overnight to buy a pair of trainers at an inflated price because they are associated with some celebrity. And people paying others to then buy those trainers off them at an even more inflated price.

Suits and ties at football matches. I've never thought to myself, "I'm going to a football/baseball/cricket/other game, I think I'll put on a suit". Director's boxes full of them. When I win the lottery and buy Charlton, I'll ban them from the director's box.3

I think we've covered this before but people putting trainers on for their walk down queen Victoria street from the train gets up my nose. Not as much as those stupid scooters or fold up bikes but it aggravates me all the samelimeygent said:

My boss does this. Decent suit, pair of shite trainers until he gets to the office when he puts on decent pair of shoes. Buy yourself some even more decent shoes that you can walk in mate or otherwise come in in a tracksuit and change.Carter said:

Hate seeing city workers in trainers. Mainly women in their smart clothes. Dont have wear high heels but surely they own pair of sensible shoes with a small heel.Carter said:
