Weird, I can't see a couple. It's a little girl singing...???

But agree, get it orf....

BabiesEverywhere · 01/03/2008 09:31

I see it all the time, I keep thinking another page impression out of the way it must be finished now but it keeps showing up.

Though I hate the advert, Mumnet must be getting a lot of money from it, which is a good thing.

chocolatespiders · 01/03/2008 09:35

boomie · 01/03/2008 09:51

Yes, it is so bloody annoying. I am sick of seeing their smarmy faces!!

hecate · 01/03/2008 10:08

ladytophamhatt · 01/03/2008 11:41

The smug little girl singing is almost as annoying.

hecate · 01/03/2008 14:22

Clearly MNHQ are trying to drive you insane.

yurt1 · 01/03/2008 14:23

Oh I have moaned about this in SN today. Babysitters? Er not in our world.

I don't mind the others, but bloody happy families on NT holidays playing merrily away in SN seems a bit . Bit like advertising smug marrieds in lone parents or babyclothes in m/c.

SueW- I"ve been trying to work out why my computer is slow more often these days- you may have answered that question.

LIZS · 02/03/2008 07:35

the text doesn't look quite horizontal , or is that just me ?

JustineMumsnet · 04/03/2008 08:25

We could look at just running our discount partners as default ads on the special needs boards. Are there any of our partners that you think should be excluded?

CantSleepWontSleep · 04/03/2008 08:27

Maybe those of you who object could just install an ad-blocker on your machine, and then you'd be happy and stop creating work for Tech.

FrannyandZooey · 04/03/2008 08:35

I really don't mind that one, isn't it funny? I hate that junk food one with the mouth on

anyway

MN have asked us not to use adblockers if possible so let's hope it will be gone soon

CantSleepWontSleep · 04/03/2008 08:38

Have they Franny? When did they do that?

yurt1 · 04/03/2008 08:43

Justine- I think it's just holidays. There have been repeated threads on the SN section about not being able to go on holiday/not being ever able to get out etc that it seems a fairly widespread problem.

I think we all buy clothes though

FrannyandZooey · 04/03/2008 08:57

a while back when there was a discussion on ads in general
obviously if people use ad blockers then that scuppers MN's main source of revenue - people viewing ads and people clicking through

FrannyandZooey · 04/03/2008 08:58

I hadn't realised it was the holiday thing yurt - most people seem to be complaining about the kissing?

I much prefer it to the horrible mouth or that man that wants you to kick his arse

yurt1 · 04/03/2008 09:00

are the couple snogging? Bit of snogging doesn't bother me. I started a thread at the weekend on it- it's the bit at the end about how First Choice provide babysitters (er not for our family they don't) that was

Cheesiness I can block out

FrannyandZooey · 04/03/2008 09:04

ah yes I get you yurt
I hadn't really registered that bit
the threads I had seen about it were "get a room" "their smug snogging" "urgh kissing" etc !

No1ErmaBombeckfan · 04/03/2008 11:06

All is forgiven - have you seen it's replacement !!!
