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!

It's rare for any cover version to be better than the original, so why do it? Some artists are so lazy and untalented to write their own material anyway.

I was watching the drivers on a busy roundabout in Harrogate this morning. If you actually wanted to get anywhere you had to sieze the narrrowest of opportunity and go for it. That meant that the the car you had jumped in front of was left with a simple choice

a) ease off a little and accept that the pusher-in didn't really have a choice, it doesn't really matter, and what goes around comes around, or
b) keep accelerating until you are aggressively close to pusher-in's car, if that's not enough a long toot on the horn will let them know about the precious few seconds they've cost you. Oh and ignore the fact that you've probably just pushed in front of someone else.

90% went for option b). Wankers.

Here's what was said "we've added another £18m into frontline care for people suffering with mental illness over the Christmas period".

Here's what was not said "we've reduced funding for a&e over the christmas period by £20m to pay for £18m of increased mental health funding."

How much I'm missing my smartphone which stopped working yesterday. I should be able to cope without the internet (Fetch) at my fingertips 24 hours a day.

Yes, agree with Wobbling, also people that don't respond to messages regarding trying to arrange a visit. [Hoping to catch up with Norwich friends after Christmas]

This sort of FB post

"Is anyone selling a tom tom one xl inbox with prices".

Where's the "please". Punctuation. Inbox isn't a verb yet. But mostly the lack of please.
