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!

Supermarkets' Christmas tv adverts.

Comments thereon.

Discussions of the same, particularly if anyone remembers last year's.

Etc.

I thought "gotten" was archaic English... (along with many other US Americanismsite! )

I like "gotten" but I don't use it. (See "forgotten" as an example of how it's respectably English)

Channel 5 showing 8 hours of Christmas Films on 08 November

And

Clitheroe Town Council's arrangements for Remembrance Sunday which means that nothing happens at the Cenotaph until noon while (most?) of the rest of the country marks the occasion at 1100. (At 1100 all the dignitaries are in church).
