Are you missing out? Browsers, e.g. Chrome, Edge and Firefox all 'cache' data on the sites that you visit, this enables them to load up the site pages faster when you visit those sites again. The downside of caching is that it means that you will not always see the latest page on a website, particularly when a site's images change. Sites like www.rossmartin.co.uk often display different headers to celebrate holidays and seasons, we change ours for fun: because we can!
If you cannot see our seasonal header you need to clear your browser's cache.
