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!

That I don't appear to see how Ivanka Trump is qualified to become the US's ambassador to the UN.

Changing the battery on my Garmin HR chest strap. Tiny screws requiring a tiny screwdriver, in this age of press-fit technology? That's just perverse.

People opening their fucking folding bikes as SOON as they step off the goddamned train.

Drivers who try to be lane controllers. We have roadworks near us on a stretch of dual carriageway where it goes down to one lane. It’s marked from a roundabout and counts down 600 to go, 400 to go to one lane etc. I’ve just driven down there. Two fucking pricks straddling the lanes in there car so that all the traffic goes into single file at the 600 to go point and backs up to the roundabout, rather than just let the traffic flow and merge into one lane gradually as the cones in the road allow it to.

Unfortunately for these two idiots today they hadn’t stayed far enough over so I was able to safely squeeze up the inside of them and bypass about 300 yards of traffic, then merge in without having to force my way into a place.

Agreed Dave,I raised this one recently too. We need more ‘merge in turn’ and ‘use both lanes when queuing’ signs

I think less arseholes on the road would suffice. I’ve nothing against those joining the queue early, it’s the idiots who cause a hold up that I have the issue with.

People who think a bad cold is the 'flu are probably the same ones who this a bad headache is a migraine.
