I apologise for the increasingly intrusive adverts here. They are inserted by WordPress.com not me. I can only remove them if I upgrade from this free site to a paid plan. That's something I'm not inclined to do at this stage now the site is only visited by you and a handful of others who also have impeccable taste.
