I find myself unsubscribing more and more from newsletters these days they are time consuming and mostly not relevant to me.
I quite like the one click scenario however it’s flawed in some respects that I can forward a newsletter to a friend as I often do and they’ll end up with my one click link
Today I found myself unsubscribing from the Dublin City Enterprise Board emails … I think I’d been at an event a while back so they signed me up as a result.
Firstly I was required to login … really don’t remember setting up an account but anyways I found their Reminder Sent...

So I see the journal have their hands on the TDs expenses for the country.

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t
seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out
his phone and calls the emergency services.
He gasps: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says: “Calm
down, I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence,
then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: “OK, now
