Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

C Block - there's no place like it.

Maybe the lady was driving a hire car/courtesy car/stolen car.

It's the Queen's birthday on June 10th, according to custom, but Trooping the Colour is a week later. I always thought they coincided.

I thought that was the whole point of having an official birthday in June, so that the troopers didn't have to freeze their tits off in January simply because that's when the monarch happened to be born.

Maybe it's the Saturday after the official birthday even if that falls on a Saturday.

Google broken, is it?

"Since 1979 it has been held on the Saturday in 11-17 June".

So Liz will get a new prime minister as a birthday present. Given the choice I bet she is wishing she could just have some more socks instead.

This is from a discussion about what went wrong at BA last week:

I was asked to look at ways to reduce fault rates for a famous global telecoms provider. I established that a large proportion of faults were due to kit being unplugged at the customer premises. The cleaner and the hoover were regular culprits. My solution was to provide stickers that read "Do not turn off. Call 0800-123-4567 before disconnecting this power supply".

The idea was not implemented on the grounds of cost.

Incidentally, the discussion on The Register is has reportedly been taken down.

I've long been amused - and probably shared with the group - that my ID card says 'this is not a warrant card' on it.

Now our e-Fit identity mock-up pictures say 'this is not a photo'.

What next? PCSOs wearing 'this is not a police officer' on their uniforms?
