Hi Adrian,

Blooming pain, isn't it? I first noticed this when checking my email at
an internet cafe while on holiday in Cyprus at the very end of Apjril
this year. The graphical image is awful as even my wife, who is fully
sighted, had difficulty reading it. As far as I could see, there is no
accessible alternative on Plus.net, unlike ebay, who have provided an
audible translation.
