Shame about all the tracking cookies on that site, and turning them off involves going down a very long list. That's not compliant with European cookie laws as I understand it - opting out is supposed to be a simple "I don't want cookies". (And their "legitimate interest" to track me is of no interest to me).

We shouldn't have to resort to this, but if you use Firefox or a Firefox fork you can use the Consent-O-Matic plugin.
