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!

[Agree, Chris. I'm very much in favour of an assertive, "I'm just going to order and eat the dish I want," in that situation.]

It makes me seethe when you're out running (especially in the countryside with no-one else around for miles) and you meet another runner coming in the opposite direction and he/she doesn't even acknowledge you exist. How rude is that ?

There are a few people I see on my lunchtime run/walk. I see them almost every day. I smile and wave (or at least, used to), and they never take me on at all. it really annoys me! There's also a woman who works in my office (though actually I've not seen her in ages) so I would see her in the changing room, then out en route, then back on changing room, and she would ignore me every time

That would most certainly grind my gears M_N. It's just so ignorant and rude in my book.
