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!

Following a successful operation for by daughter, we left a certain West End hospital this evening. When paying for the reduced inpatient car parking tariff, the receptionist (who knew that I was paying by card goes and processes the fee as cash. Somehow, he can't rectify it and I have to find the cash.

First problem is that I don't have sufficient on me and now need to withdraw it. Second problem is that all four local ATMs are out of order. Third problem - Tesco Express don't do cashback. Fourth problem - Sainsbury's Local do and after making a small purchase, the cashier forgets to put through the cashback request, so I now have to buy something else.

Half-an-hour wasted due to human error and two individuals who weren't concentrating on the tasks in hand even though they were both relatively straightforward!

I've just looked online for details of a local event and I find that it's organised by an "organizator".

"Organisator" is clearly the correct spelling.

[I suspect that anything with either an organisator or, especially, an organizator is best avoided.]
