I've noticed that the pop-up ads at the bottom of the screen, operated through Google Ads, by the way, appears on my screen when I open the CT,...
So it is! Thanks!
I was busy taking snaps of some coins, partly to get away from all of the depressing and partly because I really need to photograph the coins and...
