Being ethical is a hard act to follow, a one man hair-shirt crusade.
too many interests, not enough cash.

Been talking to Dave about this and we plan to make quite a bold step of perhaps getting rid of the google ads altogether. (Do I hear Martin falling off his chair?)
We can't have that - he's only just out of hospital! :mrgreen:

hells bells! - sense breaks out............... :roll:
While you're at it, I really would get rid of this code too -
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://www.statcounter.com/counter/coun ... oscript><a href="http://www.statcounter.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://c2.statcounter.com/counter.php?s ... 721&java=0" alt="free web stats" border="0"></a> </noscript> - :?
That shows you're using "statcounter" which is an "easy" way of getting site stats, BUT it can also slow page loading to a crawl, particularly for those at a long distance, or on dialup (googleads does it too) - this really is totally unnecessary, as there are several different ways of collecting really detailed site stats using your server (Xilo) control panel (awstats etc). As they are generated on the server, they are 100% accurate, and don't slow the site down one jot.............(I used to use statcounter many moons ago, but gave up with it as it really slows things down!) :dave:
