Hi, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your website in Chrome, it looks fine
but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, very good blog!

That’s so strange – we’ve had a look on explorer and everything seems to be working fine for us, hopefully this means the problem had already solved itself. Thanks for the heads up though, feedback is always appreciated! We’re also glad to hear you’re enjoying our blog 🙂
