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!

+1 to that ^ Heaton is one of a dwindling number of songwriters who thinks about the people who will listen to his work.

To me, much of his work, especially his most recent stuff, is painfully contrived and tricksy, like the forced output of a creative songwriting course.

To be fair, he has never come up with a masterpiece like Shine a light.

Realising I've consented to go on holiday somewhere where, relative to the UK, the average temperature is 2C lower, the average rainfall is three TIMES higher, and beer is double the price if you're lucky.

Guinness isn't that expensive in Dublin;). Norway. Forecast says it'll be raining from before we get there on Wednesday until the following Monday.

[And since you stay in the driest part of Britain, Badger, Norway will be eight times wetter than where you are from ;-). And 8C colder. (Central Scotland was this afternoon, as it has been on several days this July, 11C. My gears are frozen.)]

People who think it's fine to keep aggressive animals in fields with a public footpath through them. I have never been afraid of horses in the slightest until this evening when a friend and I were herded out by three horses, one of which wanted to bite me and none of which were at all happy with strange humans in their field.
(They came cantering over from the other side of the field as soon as they saw us, and at one point had me pinned against a fence that I couldn't scale - and I did try before realising that facing them was much safer than turning my back.)
