Facebook – Complete invasion of privacy
Ever since my status was set to being “single” on Facebook recently, on the news feed I am bombarded by every ad they can throw at me about all types of ‘single women’ on the planet, in an effort to get me ‘hooked up’. The amount of ads I see on the news feed is absolutely absurd, with about every 2nd post on the news feed is about some dating app/site, stating such fantasic things like:
“Slavic girls waiting for you!”
“Asian hotties ready for your message!”
“Cosplay hunnies waiting to meet you”
“Star Wars Geek Girls Ready For dates”
“Star Trek Geek Girls”
Such ads like these:

This kind of shite I block all the time, but… I continue to see the SAME crap and spam from Facebook!
Half of my time on the news feed is spent by either hiding ads or reporting them as spam.
I even saw one ad tonight on my news feed that was advertising a “personal razor to shave your balls“!!!!!
Seriously Facebook???? Are you THAT desperate???? I have no idea who does a search on Facebook or Google for Razors to shave ones balls, as I do a fine job myself at doing that!!!!
So facebook is taking their ads too far with the crap they throw in my face!
I never consented to see such ads, and as such, I am fed up of seeing such crap!

Promo Blast – Gitanjali Pritchard
Singer Bio
My love for singing traces back to my childhood, when I was approximately 7 years old..
I used to listen to my dad playing the violin, and somehow what I didn’t know then as a child, I know now….
“That I always wanted to SING… always wanted to write and compose lyrics…”
I began to take classical singing lessons as a child and continued till circumstances tore me apart to simply log on to a real life for survival.
My music career went into a recessive hibernation and the economical struggles made me put my “SINGING” on the shelf of my mind’s library…
And almost after 30 long years, I felt I wanted to open the closed pages of my book… to the chapter of SINGING and MUSIC..
I needed to do something different other than follow the routine work life… I first began with lessons on piano and then the sound of music did the rest for me… It took me to the platform of my dreams … to sing, to entertain and to create music..
I couldn’t have done it without my son, who encouraged me at every step, not just as a mentor, but as a guide and my best friend … with very special thanks to Jean Pritchard for making my dream a reality …. And very humble oath of honour to D/A music/ Regent Street Artists for giving me a recognition ….
My debut single as a lyricist and singer has released on the following platforms…
iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/distant-heartbeats-single/id1210879508 Spotify: https://play.spotify.com/album/2aY7z8dmQ0VneCBGsPBR7y
