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!

Sigh
Motorists who choose to blind you with their full beam to say 'thank you' for giving them priority. [Five times this morning, in a journey less than 2 miles]

Fragile Do Not Bend
+1 Sigh. Especially when it was their right of way anyway.

And the opposite side of the coin, motorists who fail to acknowledge in any way shape or from that you've given them priority.

Common courtesy, surely.

[I never know what to do in that situation. I want to say thank you and acknowledge the action, but I don't want to blind the other driver]

The way that clothes, once they've been put in the laundry basket, been washed and dried by one of us, come back to the bedroom and need to be put away.

[I worry they won't see that in the dark. Maybe I'm just overthinking it]
