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!

If I ever found myself in a locked room with John Inverdale and Mark Nicholas, holding a gun with just one bullet....

I'd shoot myself

The only thing I use hand sanitizer gel for is portaloos - sometimes they run out of soap, sometimes they run out of that spray stuff and some don’t have either to start with. Used up the last of a very elderly bottle (might predate moving in to current house, certainly predates current car) last weekend and couldn’t find any at Boots when I went to get a replacement. What grinds my gears is that I didn’t ask where it was because I didn’t want to look as though I was panicking about the virus. I’m an idiot.

2010. That’s when I last bought hand sanitizer. When the tall ships came to Hartlepool. 🙄

That almost all crisps in this country come in little bags (packed inside a bigger bag). Why the fuck can't I get a large bag of sharing crisps (or extruded corn snacks) for children to share at a party? All that fucking packaging.

Different part of the aisle, WL. When I urgently need small bags of crisps for packed lunch, I can only get sharing bags - I have decanted these into small tubs but "they taste different".

I think I threw out some hand sanitiser recently as it was so old and never used. I don't think I'd bother buying it again.
