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!

Is there one of these already?

I'm super excited.

However.... Fetch, are you sure it opens at midnight on the 1st? I would have thought it opened at midnight on the 30th November.

*takes self to pedants thread* :)

Is it a group of pedants, or the thread of the pedant?

I took on the weight of my US international employee over a date limit for submissions by midnight on xx date. I assumed it was the end of the day, not the previous day. And I won - they allowed my submission after a massive mail war.

But - on checking the internet - the 'accepted' usage seems to be midnight is the start of the day, Fetch is aligned. Although it does advise (as per insurance practice) to use 23:59 or 00:01 for clarity.

In other news, besides Mrs S's son's nice mug, is noon am or pm ?
