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!

I agree. They've annoyed me ever since my family got its first TV in 1961.

Having to wait in for a phone call because you gave them your landline number instead of your mobile like a twit.

You're surreptitiously surfing the net at work and all of a sudden somewhere on the page you're looking at a video advert opens and you can't find it to turn the sound off.

Arriving on time to give T1 a lift home and sending a text, only to get a reply ten minutes later saying they're not even finished yet because there were some mix-ups.

Sitting in the car getting cold.

Stuff that's, at most, mildly good being described as "awesome" ;)

haha :)

[One of my colleagues described my achievements over the last 29 years as "awesome" the other day. I'm happy to let them believe that, even if the truth were known I'm just, well, AWESOME:):)]

Effing running shoe laces that come undone twice during a 5 mile race. My own fault really, all my other pairs have toggles but not that particular pair for some reason.
