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!

Twenty-two minutes late, escaped puma, Chessington North.

[Reggie Perrin quotes, in fact. I'll give Southern this, it's a lot easier to come up with excuses for being late for work these days.]

The current advert up there ^ which is exhorting me to use the Benefit New Wow Brows App and "get rewarded for keeping your brows in top - top shape'.

Am I supposed to make them fucking exercise? Do eyebrows need to 'get ready for Summer'? Should I be worried that mine don't have a bikini body?

The very concept that women should be rewarded for making their fucking eyebrows fit a media - generated beauty ideal is just one of the multitude of reasons that the Women's Marches took place at the weekend.

FFS.

There's no part of a woman which isn't open to appraisal, criticism and someone making money out of it, Carp. Funny how the same doesn't apply to men.

Yep I've often told Shel she should market her "Rustic Farmers Wife" look.

"Shel is wearing old worn out maternity dungerees over 5 layers of clothes to keep the cold out. On her feet are Dickies steel toe capped workboots. Her hair tied is up with orange baler twine, her complexion enhanced by mud (and worse) artistically spattered on her face. Her outfit is accessorised by fingerless woollen gloves much beloved of Albert Steptoe, and a bright yellow bobble hat"

I think the Hollywood glitterati would be queuing up for that...

I would rock that look. I never fail to be amazed at the time spent by ladies in the gym doing their hair and makeup.
