I have added a message as a notice which appears at the top of the website... this can be made to be always on display or allow you to dismiss it once read, this is how it is set at the moment..

If you think it would be better always on display let me know

I think better always on display. I can always check when I last donated, but have reached an age where I'll forget reading this before I go to bed tonight - if I even remember to do that

You remember going to bed? Been a while since I could do that...

I suggested I might not remember to go to bed.

I rarely remember going to bed

Hi Stuart

I was reading somewhere that Bing gives a better / fairer share of ad revenue to site hosters. Have you tried them? The article said Bing is also preferred by companies wanting to reach a more mature demographic, or something like that. Could be a good match as well !

The banners that are now shown at the top and just below the bottom bar use a company called Media.net, I think these are something to do with Bing/Yahoo... But I will have a look..

Google are just being pain in the **** with all websites I think... I did try July using them the estimated revenue was £1200 they paid the site £4 ... I have always had and accepted some invalid traffic, but this was usually a small amount but this year they just have not been paying... so they had to go... you cannot speak to anyone, the forums are not studied by any Google employee so a waste of time, you cannot email them and if you do they do not answer...

One big cover up to me, I suspect they are charging advertisers but not passing it on... but try to prove it..

Don’t the CEO’s of companies like this realise that such arrogance and complacency comes back to haunt those that behave in this manner? The history of commerce is littered with failures of huge “too big to fail” concerns that, well, failed....
