A POLITE NOTICE
to all our 'would-be' helpful
Internet Marketeers
It is obvious now to the rest of the world that, as a museum, we are 'in trouble.'  Every day, I am inundated with ever more SPAM adverts from marketing companies, individuals big and small, all offering to promote our website and museum to the much wider world.  From Alaska in the arctic north to South Sandwich Islands in the Antarctic south, they claim they can increase our web traffic and hence more visitors from all corners of the world.  And presumably, save our skin.

Such 'marketeers', note, you are wasting your time.  Just as you are wasting mine, for if I were to answer every such email received, I would spend a good bit of the day typing them ~ for those that don't know, unpaid at that!   Even just answering you by responding "No Thanks", or finding and clicking on your 'unsubscribe' button or link will take a lot of time for each and every one received.  That assumes your link is easy to find, but often almost hidden.
So do yourselves a favour, give it up. Including all you lovely 'ladies' with appealing feminine christian names hoping to woo the obviously getriatric old fogey that runs this website.  That includes all those names of indeterminate or flexible gender hoping that, sportsmanlike, I may just be batting for the other side.
GIVE IT UP.

So, we don't get all that many website visits?  I bet all you 'marketeers' get more swiftly to spot this now.
SEASON'S GREETINGS
whatever season you happen to be in..
