Can a mod get the News Monkey onto him? He's a bit more literate than his successors at the Adver.

I should add it's entirely our fault why it might not be possible, and that should be sorted soon.

Sam, how is this enterprise funding itself? There doesn't seem to be any advertising or sponsorship. Is it just something you're doing out of the kindness of your heart?

The site will have advertising introduced very shortly, we had to get an idea of the numbers we could "command" first. That said, the gent who owns it is a Swindon lad and very keen to give the town a diverse and digital-savvy media outlet out of the goodness of his incredibly big heart*

It'll be like the Swindon Echo...took on the Adver with a selling line of colour centrefolds of Maurice Owen.... Smiley

Sam - On a technical issue, I tried to visit your site on my phone (EE/TMobile) but encountered a 'content block' (due to 'adult content' FFS!)  In order to get the block removed (and prove I'm over 18), they want me to give them my credit card details.  They can f**k right off!  You might want to get your techies to look into that, if it's going to stop people accessing your site.

You can use this for the time being until their techies sort it out.

Odd. Quite right for you to tell them to f**k right off with that. I'll get the people who know how to do something about it to do something about it.
