Is it just me?
The only link to Amazon (via PG) I can find is in the announcements thread in the Experienced Poets forum.
What happened to the banner link at the bottom of the main page?

You can still use the link I mentioned, Suzanne:

Thanks for pointing this out - I hadnt noticed. The last upgrade must have made it disappear. I shall try and get it back!

It's back!

I'm very pleased that you noticed it had gone. We still get a trickle of money from it which goes towards the costs of running the site.

My eyes are fine, thankyouverymuch. I've got adblock on, perhaps that's it?

@Suzanne

That's probably it, Suzanne - I find ADBLOC interferes with DOWNLOADHELPER and NOSCRIPT so I leave it Disabled these days.
EDIT - I just enabled it and the Amazon link disappears. Disable it and the Link reappears.

@Ros
Amazon is brilliant!
Books come in tank-like packaging
Plus FREE Super Saver Delivery usually = trusted supplier = you won't be buying fake goods in the case of
CD/DVD/USB sticks. Did I mention it was FREE?

Geoff, we're groaning under the weight of books here, you really don't need to encourage me to use Amazon, I know it only too well... :D I used to use the Book Depository as well (also free postage, and cool bookmarks) but I see they've become part of Amazon now, so the differences may disappear. Anyway, they were often cheaper for poetry, esp. US books.

I like Adblock- but sometimes I don't know what I'm missing...
