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!

The practice that's gradually wandering over from the US of gifting (ugh) handmade cookies (ugh) at Christmas. Srsly, unless you're going to make something exquisite and tricky like macarons, don't bother; I can mix dough, dollop it on a tray and cook it myself, thanks. And as for getting your kids to make cookies to give to their teachers/all the neighbours ... would you like some snot and grime with that?

Pyramid schemes, especially when it is sold as not a pyramid scheme. It still looks very triangular shaped and depends on me ordering shit from you.

Fake nail extensions. Horrendous looking things, same with eyelashes.
