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 know you are waiting on them for an urgent contribution to a document with an imminent deadline but just swan around doing SFA and because they are your line manager, you can't give them the hurry up...

Arsehole parking. There's a van on a local road near home who has parked across the whole footpath. He claims it's his path as it's in front of his garage, which he's reversed up to.

[ WL, unless it's a private road and/or private land, seems his explanation is a little unlikely!

Take a photo and email it to your local highways dept at the council (not the police, these days). If nothing else they might write him a letter! ]

Trying to find local races, and discovering that the race finder for my area has been peppered with races that are actually hundreds of miles away.

Yes, there was a Grand Union Canal event listed as being in the middle of Up North and an event in an Olympic stadium in London listed as being in Brampton, Cumbria. I've deleted both of those. But there's also a Greenwich Park 10km in the middle of the Howgills, a Regents Park 10km on the A689, Draycote Water has relocated to Chesters Roman Fort among other places, the Leadenhall Building has moved from London to Millom, and you could get very lost trying to find Chepstow Racecourse.

They appear to have been added by a user called "evvnt Platform".
