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?

(Yesterday). We forgot to have our Advent Calendar chocolate last night.

Only a minor disaster as we can have double dips tonight 😁

Not so much a minor disaster today, but ongoing:

When I had my haircut and highlights two weeks ago, my hair pre-appointment was looking really nice so I asked the hairdresser to only trim a minimal amount off.

Two weeks on I realise that hair this length makes me look like a Thelwell pony, and for various reasons my next hair appointment is not until mid-January.

Took Stevie out for his first real afternoon walk in full darkness (it's foggy here) and had lost his flashing red collar light by the time we got to the first stile.

Two miles before I got to my destination the road was closed due to flooding and I had to do a ten mile detour.

I managed to shear the blots off my bike stand, again.
Sam has already had to drill one sheared bolt out and tap larger holes for sturdier bolts once.

I've run out of sticky tape while wrapping presents.

364 days after WW bought it for me, my handbag has suffered a fatal malfunction.

It’s only minor because it has a one year warranty and we happened to be in the right town to get a refund. Will shop for a replacement tomorrow.

This getting beyond minor: first I forgot my paniers, and Sam had to bring them to me, and only once he had did I realise my front tyre was completely flat.
