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!

Grammar pedants - help please.

Better estimate would give the impression that the others are crap though?

I like Ian's suggestion now, and will change it accordingly. Lovely job.

To boldly go.... :p

Sorry... where I was going with that, is that it would be highly appropriate and, quite frankly bloody hilarious, if you were to insert a pair of (*)(*) in the middle of that letter, Hendo.

Considering I am the reviewer, not the writer of this missive young Balham, I don't think that would be entirely appropriate.

I'm sure I have seen best estimate used as a verb. Perhaps hyphenated.

I best-estimate ..
you best-estimate ..

.. this allows us to boldly best-estimate. :)
