Moving adverts on HJ site - artful dodger {P}

I find the new large moving advert on the right of the page very distracting whilst reading text. I have no problem with the small ones on the left, but I had to resize the window to remove it from my sight. Perhaps a guideline should be drawn up about the adverts that keep this site running. I personally feel this one has gone too far.

" find the new large moving advert on the right of the page"

I don't see it.
One on the top - so I scroll down.

But I'm running all sorts of AV and pop up blocking software...

I assume he's referring to the Zurich ad on the right just under "Week?s Best Deals at 27th October"

It doesn't bother me too much - though I'd happily sign up for a "pay to remove adverts" service

Moving adverts on HJ site - patently

HJ chooses to put the ads there. But hey, it's his site.

We don't have to come here. No-one forces us. We only come if we want to.

Don't ask me why but the blue 'thing' advertising the Kia really winds me up. Who's it modelled on? Griff Rhys Jones? That stupid beard...
