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!

TRO, if you want reasonably priced, ethically sourced food, we'd need to reverse the brexit vote.

People who put the front wheels (or more) of their child's buggy/pram in the road whilst waiting to cross.

People who queue/loaf across the path, blocking it, whilst waiting for a bus.

Colleagues who play fast and loose with the rota by "needing" early finishes. Especially when I suspect it's so that they can go to the beauty parlour.

[Do they *need* to go to the beauty parlour, V'rap? :-)]

[I suspect that if an objective assessment were made, my need to go to the beauty parlour would be considered greater than my colleague's. Which, I suppose, proves that beauty parlours are effective.]

People who book meetings in for an hour after you're due to go home and don't turn up to them. Which then overrun by 45 minutes as well.

Drivers who put the front wheels (or more) of their car in the cycle lane before turning their head to look for cyclists.

Drivers who come screaming up to junctions without looking. USE YOUR FUCKING PERIPHERAL VISION! So far I've had to jump into the road as a pedestrian and had to slam my brakes on as a driver, it's so fucking dangerous and selfish.

The garage I use couldn't book my car in for its MoT for almost a week and, now that it has failed, can't do the required work until 23rd.
