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 minor disaster has befallen you today?

Smooth Radio at work. Especially the Christmas songs.


You have my deepest sympathy. I got asked to leave the premises if I didn’t calm down at an old work for complaining about Real Radio being on 24 hours a day.

I woke up at 3.30am and realised I still had my (disposable) lenses in. It wouldn’t have been even a minor disaster, had it not been accompanied by searing pain as the lens tore. I spent the next half an hour in the bathroom shining a bright light into my eye and fiddling around trying to find the missing pieces. Eventually they came out and after a restorative cuppa, and having to feed the cat, as he wouldn’t let up, I finally got back to sleep at 5:00am.

Forgot my money off voucher for Sainsbury's. Could have saved £9 on mine and my neighbour's combined shop 😫

Went on a bike ride with the dog in the bike basket. Got to Ashbourne and realised we’d forgotten the dog’s lead 🤦🏻‍♀️

It's not really that minor, bit I won't be directly as badly affected as many others: the far right nutter party have won the biggest single share of the seats in the Dutch Parliament. Not an outright majority, as nobody ever gets an outright majority, but as the biggest single party they'll surely end up in the governing coalition, and the vile Wilders ( who was once, famously, banned from entering the UK for spreading hate speech) will likely become PM.

Not as much for me but for the lady I gave directions to yesterday. I realised in the park today that I may very well have sent her in completely the wrong direction! I forgot about an entrance to the football ground she was trying to find and sent her all the way back to the main entrance. Oops!
