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!

Myself, as usual.
If I was just a *bit* more organised (Ok, a lot more organised) I could have gone for a proper run with my friends. Or, conversely been in bed by now.

Instead, I have been packing for a weekend away at the last minute and have done a streak-saver mile (another one) at gone 11pm.

On the up-side though, I'm going away for the weekend.

I'm in Facebook, I follow a notification that someone has tagged me in a post so I click on the link and it takes me to a screen asking me to log in to Facebook. Why? I'm in fucking Facebook already. Another good reason to say fuck off Facebook.

That's endemic McG. I rarely see anyone talking into a mobile phone by holding it to their ear anymore. And since when did not wearing headphones so others don't have to hear your racket become a 'thing'.

(Dio, if that happens, you're almost definitely being taken outside of Facebook by a site/app that would like to obtain your login details. I can't think of any good or legitimate reasons for one to do that... Not a FB foible, but a scam regardless).

[You'd think so, but in this case it is clicking on a notification that Mrs D has tagged me in a post, which she has.]

The increasing inclination of witnesses to major crime incidents to use the word "floor " when they mean "ground " . Is the whole nation morphing into Ross Kemp types ,spouting sub SAS doggerel ?
