    Diana "advertising"

    Thought i would see if anything was happening with Diana these days. Clicked onto uk importer and then selected gun shops in Suffolk. I selected a shop near to Ipswich then clicked on to find a warning that I was about to see nudity this was followed by my entire screen being taken over by a nude woman. I have to say if this is part of a new advertising strategy it certainly got my interest and that of my wifes sitting next to me. Honest dear look I am on a legitimate gun shop site! I am sure someone will be along soon to point out Dianas had a problem with barrel droop in the past etc etc. I didn't mention the shop for fear of spreading virus etc Has this happened to anyone else? The Russian bride pop ups I take in my stride.

    Wonder if there will be an unexplained surge in Diana sales as a result of a new found interest in their sites

    If you watch a rerun of Lee Mack's 'Not Going Out' from last week, all will be revealed.

    I suppose being a member of Admin I should go and check out said web site --- It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

    And wouldn't a "droop compensating mount" be self fulfilling anyways?

    It wasn't an advert and I don't imagine she was a member of staff at said dealer. There is nothing dodgy in my search history to initiate this so I assume their site has been hacked / hijacked. Perhaps I lead a sheltered life but I have never had anything like this happen before.
