Those ads up there
 
I thought they were supposed to be intuitive and pick up what we're each posting?

I keep getting a banner about Jiu Jitsu in Abu Dhabi and another about the Dialysis Unit at The American Hospital.

Is it because of the on-bored (sic) fighting and piss-taking?

Download a little app called adblock, it adds onto your browser (in my case Chrome) and blocks all adds from every website.
Well worth it.

Another top tip from Kix.

The erring of our Founder (I am Afraid) nothing much to do with British Expats, more to do with Financial Services. However, in the words of Alexander Pope, 'To Err is Human - To forgive, Divine!'

I get ads for moving to Dubai and shipping. Never, ever searched on the cost of shipping. Bizarre

I think they're linked to a) your location (I'm getting ones for Morocco now) and b) words and phrases in the pages you're viewing, rather than what you're searching.
