Screen size changed?

I read Mumsnet on the mobile site, but yesterday something changed on it. I'm still logged in and haven't changed any settings but before the font size was reasonable and the text fit the screen. I would have to scroll up and down to read the thread but didn't have to scroll from side to side. Now the font is really tiny and I'm struggling to read it. Because it's smaller it's also difficult to select the thread I want to read. What is even more frustrating is that I also have to scroll from side to side just to read each line.

I'm using Android 6.0.1. Do you know how I can fix this?

Have you accidentally clicked on to the desktop site?

Scroll all the way to the very bottom and click in the centre, it should say 'go to mobile site' or similar.

That's what thought at first but I am on the mobile site. I've gone back to desktop and then back again to mobile but it's the same.

The only thing I do when I get a glitch is close the window and open a new one up.

Ha, that worked. Thanks.
I'd tried coming out of Mumsnet and going back in but was using the same tab and had the same issues.
Closing that tab completely and opening a new one has worked. Thank you
