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!

I posted this 9n the inane Facebook page a couple of days ago. It was on our local police Facebook page:

NAILSTONE

Numerous reports from locals of a suspicious vehicle parked up in the village in various spots over the last week or two.

When we finally established the correct registration - we paid a visit to the local keeper first thing this morning.

His wife has accounted for his ‘suspicious activity’.

Pokemon.

Gotta catch ‘em all.

Queue jumpers. At least four this evening while waiting for a bus. Two were schoolgirls (no surprise there) and two older men, who should have better manners.

I struggled to restrain myself from giving one of them an 'accidental' kick on the ankle as they pushed passed me as I was about to board the bus.

SWR wifi is crap. GWR is fairly crap too. It makes me laugh that they try and push it with a 'stream movies, play games' type thing. I doubt that anyone ever has managed that.

Disappointment with newly launched Google 'arcade quality' gaming cannot be too long coming.

The stream films thing on SWR basically just means opening 15 tabs in order to access WiFi instead of one!

Having my morning dog walk taken away from me by a marginally sober and therefore passive aggressive (now that he's sober) twat.

That really fucking grates on me.

There really isn't a person on this planet right now that's safe from my ire.
