Paying and still seeing adverts
The Haynes advert is now at the right of my screen, considering I've been a paid member for many years this seems odd?
If you can't fix it I might as well cancel my subscription.

Even with ad block which blocks around 20 ads per page the Haynes ad still gets through.

Adblock gets paid by advertisers to let ads through.
I wrote a desktop chrome extension some time ago that blocks 100% of the adspam, it just uses css to hide all the elements.

Desktop site seems ok now, got the full page width back too
Mobile site still appears to have a few random ads inline with posts (as per pics above), I think they come via Google.
