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!

Reminded by the Senior Moments thread - cheques and bank opening times.

I got a cheque from the scrapyard when I weighed in my old car.
My bank in town in open 09:30 - 15:30 four days a week, not at all on Saturday.

Guess what normal, office hours I work?

How do I physically get to the bank to pay in my cheque?

What use are those hours to anybody?

This is all due to internet banking. I resisted using internet banking for so long because I like to go in to the bank and talk to a person to do my bits and bobs, but because their hours have become so rubbish, I had to register for internet banking in order to get anything done at all! *grumble grumble*

Not having a middle name for people to use when they're *really* angry with me.

I *think* you can pay cheques in at a post office if your bank doesn’t let you do it via an app.

Surely 'Fetch' is your middle name?
