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!

Snake - the Michaels family are from Gogglebox (TV show). My wife hates them with a passion.

ok, I've seen Gogglebox. I think is a microcosm of the dietry/exercise problems of the nation, posh/well off people getting pissed on wine (a la Mayo), less well off people eating shite food sitting on their fat arses.

I'll tell you what ground my gears yesterday. Motorbikes. Not all motorbikes but those that go screaming through the countryside. Most of the day the soundtrack of the walk was screeching bikes.

And through towns. If I wanted to hear that much noise, I'd go to an air show.

We've got a broody hen at the moment. Most annoying thing is having to go out there several times a day to take her out and make sure she drinks and eats a bit before going back. She's pulled all the feathers off her breast and is getting skinny :(

People's lack of awareness. LOOK UP. Your life doesn't revolve around your phone you muppet 😡

People believing that just because I appear engrossed in my phone, that I don't see them intentionally walking into me. (Although their surprise when it hurts them more than me when they walk into me is always nice.)

My computer deciding to turn itself off when I leave the room. I'm starting to think it could be a hardware thing rather than Windows updates as first thought. :(

People who "make space for you" on the pavement by moving straight into your way, then look aggrieved when you don't leap out of the way fast enough. What's the point in going out of your way to get in someone else's way?
