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!

What do you know today, that you did not yesterday?

As well as setting the boundary between Pennsylvania & Maryland in 1763, Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon made observations of the Transit of Venus two years earlier. A naval attack prevented them reaching their intended destination, Sumatr in time, so they took readings at the Cape of Good Hope.

On the Edinburgh ring road there is a junction called Straiton. Its name rather negates the whole idea of a junction.
