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!

Wine Legs
The British idea of coleslaw (and probably potato salad - I've never tried to buy one). Why is it a tub of mayonnaise with a scant amount of vegetables stirred in, rather than piles of lovely fresh cabbage and carrot lightly dressed with mayo? It's horrible stuff.

Revolting slimy stuff, I make my own with yoghurt and a tiny bit of mayonnaise.
Cars, servicing them, MOTing them, car insurance companies, basically EVERY fucking thing to do with fucking cars is a massive fucking pain in the arse. I don’t even drive more than about twice a week anyway, if I could join a car club instead I would but I live somewhere with such car dependency that they don’t even have that here.

They're money pits, Fleecy.

Move to a big city, give up driving, walk & run everywhere and forget about ever seeing the green again..... Or maybe not!

People who use up precious changing room space just gassing and not actually getting changed.
