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!

Colleagues who ask "Where's so and so?" and don't think of checking the online calendar.

M and S shoppers at this time of year. This is not the time of year to drift aimlessly in front of people, especially me!

Wobbling in a winter wonderland
When the team Christmas do has been in the diary since July and people are still double-booked.

When people moan that we don’t spend enough time together socially and then turn-down the opportunity to have a drink with colleagues (see above).

When an instruction is given to wear particular outfits (Christmas jumpers) and no one but muggins here is wearing one.
