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 encourage my 5yo grandson... We pass a level-crossing that's closed for 40 mins/hr on the way to and from school. There are signs every 20m saying it's both horrid and illegal to leave your engine running.

Then finding M27 closed and a diversion round Romsey and Chilworth.

Then finding M3 / M25 exit closed and a diversion round Surrey.

But pleased to get through M23 roadworks before while we could still move.

Oh - and then finding the French air traffic control are on strike. I hope the pilot can just avoid France, we’re not going there anyway.

The British (English?) obsession with Center Parcs. At May half-term we're going to France, with ferries, accommodation and a hotel on the way back it's cost us just under £1k, the same week at our nearest Center Parcs would cost £2048 for accomodation only. Do people genuinely pay this to sit under a bubble in their trunks?

Sheepskin was supposed to say sheeps.

I was also loathing them. Any more and I'd have eaten a beefburger.

That the men in my house appear to be working on the basis that putting the lid back on the toothpaste means their willies will fall off 🙄
