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!

This annoys me when on a narrow road I pull my bike over so that a car in the opposite direction can get past and I get no acknowledgement at all! Guess I'm lucky they haven't run me over ;-)

Keyboard warriors who generalise. "People are just completely ignoring the rules", "People just don't care anymore", "People are just ignorant". Stop lumping me in with the small minority who are getting on your nerves.

And while I'm at it, those people who think they speak for everyone.

And Richard and Judy. Just thought I'd throw that in for free.

Man who's been felling a tree using a 2-stroke chain saw since 08:30 this morning. Give us a break, fella?

Started work at 8.00 pm. Since them, I have only managed two hours' work thanks to endless behavioural issues once the children got up.

My wife has now left to do a two-hour shift at the local school, leaving me with two teenagers and a headache.

Any news readers/interviewers who interrupt interviewees. I was not a Corbyn fan but I admired the way that he would try to continue to answer a question despite being interrupted the the interviewer wanting to change tack.

On that note ^

People who answer a question with an answer to something completely different that tends to serve their agenda more (generally politicians).
