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!

That there are "You May Like...." Bullshit sponsored links showing under the end of the thread. It's like being on some dodgy tabloid website. 😡

Nigel is a non-entity. Sack him from society.

The current vogue for describing all sorts of foods as "comforting". Are we all widows, orphans and invalids nowadays?

What's all this superfood nonsense? I know what constitutes a good balanced diet and don't want anyone telling me that this supposed superfood is better.

The misogynistic tosser I sit next to at work. I hate the way he raises his voice when he talks to women and puts on his most patronising manner, one of these days some gal with a decent right hook is going to lay him out cold, I hope I'm there to see it.

The naming of one of the new proposed garden villages "Oxfordshire Cotswolds". It will be on the other side of the A40 from Eynsham where I live. We are NOT in the Cotswolds. I wouldn't be able to afford to live here if we were. I think that this is just a bit of spin to try and make the proposal sound more cosy and acceptable.

(BTW, I'm not a nimby and am in favour of this development provided that there will be affordable housing. I just think a more appropriate name for the project should be used).

Those calling the Israeli sergeant who shot dead an already injured Palestinian, a Hero and calling for his pardon.
How could an injured, unarmed person surrounded by armed soldiers be a threat as claimed by the sergeant?

A newspaper to which I have a paid subscription given column space, presumably paid for with some of MY money, to Robert Lustig and Gary Taubes to try to make people hysterical about food by standing in a pulpit and preaching lies.
