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!

People who wait at the bus stop because they're waiting for their friend to collect them in a car and who wait for the driver to pull into the stop before saying 'No mate, I don't want the bus. I'm waiting for a lift.'

Then either wait somewhere else or give the driver a signal you *don't* want it.

Just been for a bit of fresh air for my lunch break. Walking through the local high street, every other shop is rammed full of Halloween based shite - mostly plastic, half of which won't be sold, but all which will end up in landfill a week after!

Halloween decorations on a house I saw the other day. It's not fucking Christmas, you don't put them up weeks in advance.

When I go to pay for something with a £20 (that I have just got from the cash machine) and the person says "Don't you have anything smaller?"

well 1) I wouldn't give you £20 note if I had a better, smaller alternative and 2) you are the shopkeeper - if people want to buy things then its your responsibility to have change so that people can pay with legal notes and get back what's due. FFS.
