Sorry to write this here, though can be connected. New daily cases remain stubbornly high, now I’m noticing ads here for the bullfighting in Inca.... Please take note, MDB, your typical Brit will not appreciate being targeted with advertising for this barbaric entertainment and why-ever would you consider it a good idea to promote crowds in a bullring. Somewhat self defeating considering this article. I think that I will be boycotting this site to avoid your advertising
