Well, that says you are well behaved! I generally dismiss them with great speed since we are in this space to share poetry!

Ha. There is a ridiculous furniture ad always coming up when I try to get to my member area. What a pain. It can't be x'd out

It’s getting worse every so often. They used to be on the side. Now they try to camouflage the “x” so we even end up clicking on the ad. Maybe they want you to buy a couch!

Great limerick Duke that made me smile a lot. You are so good at this form. Adverts are so annoying so I can understand you wanting to get rid of them. Blessings to you :):)

You are very kind Christina. It forces brevity, which I seek. I can't write long pieces that take stamina. When I write prose for work (which I am quitting soon), it always seems quite painful.

So true, we only have to search for something for eg a car and trackers stick to you like limpets and for days after you get images of cars grrrrr. Merry Christmas Duke. Tom
