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 often feel like that Lip Gloss. Low centre of gravity too so I could probably take someone out.]

Lip Gloss
[ if I had been on the road side I might have moved onto the road although it was at a busy roundabout. Nothing to stop them going single file except for selfishness ]

[have seen quite a few people like that LG, I was lucky tonight, mainly runners all of whom moved over or thanked me when I did.]

[With you on this Lipgloss, I physically stop now, and move aside, making it very obvious. In the main they mumble a 'sorry', and look embararssed. Hopefully the next runner they encounter gets better treatment.]

(I tend to stop, but not move aside because I'll already be to one side and not walking down the middle like an arse anyway, adopt a stable base and brace my shoulders so that if they walk into me they'll feel it)

[I've made the same comment here previously - it's pure selfishness and ignorance. Like LG, I'll move into the road if I'm facing the traffic, but it still annoys me when folk are complete oblivious]

and on that subject..... Folk that give you dirty looks when you don't move out of their way when they are walking along looking down at phones, on calls or just staring into space. It's not my fault you are distracted and why should I be the one to weave all over the pavement just coz you are all self absorbed arseholes!

I very rarely move. More likely to stand still so they have to go around, or stick my shoulder out like a good old fashioned centre forward challenging a goalie.

The Times website. Horribly jumpy and difficult to work with, and the BTL is full of blokes going, "That article is definitely WRONG, because I say so. YOU are wrong, because I say so."

[I’m with you on that LG.

Lesley C - doesn’t that depend on whether or not they’re from the same household?]
