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!

[The rule about not parking within so many metres of a junction is very sensible and clearly necessary for safety. the one about direction of parking is largely ignored and unnecessary]

[I think there's also something in there about parking on pavements. You'd think that the councils would cash in on these rules, go out about once a month and give tickets for all the parking regulations broken, they'd make a fortune.]

People who preface a statement with the words "I'm not a racist". Oh so that makes it OK to say something racist then does it?

Or the variation, "I suppose that makes me sound like a racist," where any response other than a gushing assurance that, no, OTHER people with these views might be racist but YOU are not will cause offence.
