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!

Merry Christmas and Happy NewG(rrr)
Oh, I've just understood - you don't have to do all 26 yourself! And you don't have to do them in order. Just one selfie and as long as it's the first of that letter (any letter) then you get your x 10 and you're done. OK, I will look out for what letter remains when I'm next outside or for the reset (or just upload a random pic and hope!) :-) G

Please can we have the list kept up to date in the side bar, and links to the pics (to save scrabbling through the gallery) please? :-) G

Judges decision: thank you for pointing this loophole out FITG. All our overseas users are very welcome - so if we get any non-English letters, they will count, so long as all the other criteria are met.

@HappyG(rrr) - I got my boy to proofread the instructions :-P

It's not a "loophole" but I am glad not to be excluded. (Otherwise, I'd have to get out early to nab an untaken letter.)

I'm also relieved we don't have to cover the whole (English) alphabet as we don't have C, Q, W or Z.

I could also give you Ægisgata but it is a bit further away ;)

I liked the 'for further information, read again' instruction :-)

That London has 8 street names beginning with Z, but none beginning with X.

"Streetname beginning with X watch. Do YOU have streetname beginning with X?"

Reading has a Z for anyone in the vicinity. Was going to bag that one but it seemed a bit daft to drive into town for!

I look very unimpressed as very very wet here but I did sport a fetch hoodie for the occasion

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Upload a selfie to the gallery featuring you in front of a street sign (e.g. Queen Street), any time before December 24th.

The first person to upload each letter of the alphabet (Queen Street = Q) will get ten extra tickets in the hat. If you duplicate someone else's letter, you don't get any extra tickets.

If we collect all letters* before December 24th, we start again. So another Queen Street uploaded AFTER the first completed alphabet will also earn ten tickets for whoever uploads it. We'll go round as many times as necessary!

*X is excluded. Non-English letters are entirely valid, but it's not necessary to collect all the non-English letters, otherwise we'd be here for ever.

Only one selfie per person. Don't forget to smile! For more information, please re-read.
