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!

When you squirt screenwash onto your windscreen just as the wipers are coming down, so they bat it straight off.

Fetch - the rear one on our car will *only* squirt it out in time to be batted away. Bloody thing.

Reminds me I must adjust my jets, especially at the back.

When someone sends you a FB friend request, but then blanks you when they see you...I have TWO people who have done that. Glad I left them pending (as one I'd never met - a preschool mum - and the other, I've had a brief conversation with on the doorstep once).

Cars that squirt more screenwash on the car behind than their own windscreen.

[FDNB - mine is going more on the roof of my car than the car behind, if it’s any defence!]
