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!

They do seem to take exception to certain items for no apparent reason

The ones in Morrisons instead of "unexpected item in the bagging area" say "surprising item in the bagging area".

"Surprising"?

People who can't tell the difference between 'rain' and 'fog'.
I can see your normal lights perfectly all right, there is no bloody need to put your fog lights on.

The phrase "X sleeps until X event" We are not all 5 year olds. I got sent an email invitation to a christmas lunch event entitled 36 sleeps until Christmas from a firm of solicitors!

Stepping out to cross a road then a car coming out of a side street pulls across me and I have to retreat to the pavement. No indication, so I can only assume the a*sehole is going right. That happened 3 times today. Use your indicators muthafuckers.

Drivers. Basically 90% of them. They behave like total fucking fuckwits and we need to make everyone pass a stringent safety and courtesy test each year before we allow them on the roads. We better start investing in public transport rapidly.

Seeing a book for £8 in Tesco when I've already bought it for £15 at Waterstones.
