    I can get the full article (20 Paragraphs)...If you can't use the QR code use the other methods (text or type the link given into a browser).

    Can also read it here with no problem..... Dorset Echo - Breaking news, sport, homes, jobs, cars and what's on in Weymouth and Portland
    This link here. Clicked it and NO TEXT whatsoever. I wonder what that suggests. Tomorrow will do a screen shot to show you, but teas ready now, sorry

    Isn't that  blue "Support this site ...." the blocker ?

    On my tablet (chrome with no ad blocker)  going to the Dorsetecho.co.uk site I see this (picture below)
    No text for that article, but a slightly different and more explanatory presentation of the "Support this site" stuff

    On my PC (Chrome + uBlock Origin) - no sign of any blue Support this site" stuff

  • Monday update. About 10 days ago, carried out PW to Chromebook. What I didn't realise was that although it somehow saved items, it had turned uBlock Origin off. That's sorted and Chromebook appears to be ok.

    As for A70, decided too many browsers.chome,Firefox beta, brave, kiwi, adblock, etc .removed some, now adblock browser is my default browser and will monitor it.

    Ps, newspapers displaying in full.
