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!

Berkshire and Surrey have different half terms which is great if you live on the border of the two. Duh!

Having to grovel to some disinterested spotty teenager to get a carrier bag at the self service checkout in Tesco.

Hampshire also has different holidays, I knew someone who had kids in schools in 3 counties only a few miles apart and the Easter holidays lasted a month for her!

Agree, Doctor K. Pearce has toned it down since his Capital Sport days but is still a shrill shouting gobshite.

We are on the border of Surrey and two other counties, but fortunately our children go to school in W Sussex and Hampshire which share the same half term which is a week later than Surrey or Devon where we are now.

Unwieldy double-barrelled surnames, especially ones that include an everyday word, making them sound like a phrase.
