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!

Went to the cinema last night. After leaving the screen, I saw only one person in the upstairs area wearing a mask. At least six or seven others were there without one - not even eating/drinking. The staff were clearly thinking takings instead of everyone's health and safety by enforcing the rules.

I love my Tom Tom watch but it goes through spells where I repeatedly have to pair it as a new device again, and the app struggles to find the watch, and then it starts syncing activities but stops. It's dead annoying when this happens.

"Shona Vertue moves a lot. The personal trainer, yoga teacher, former gymnast and now psychology student swims, surfs, practises yoga and does Brazilian jiu-jitsu – she is rarely still for more than 25 minutes at a time. “My body hates me if I don’t move,” the Australian tells me, on the phone from Sydney. “Our bodies need movement to survive.”

theguardian.com

Not having a go at Shona in particular, but using this as an example.

I get up, I go to work. I come home and once the household jobs are done I flop into a comfy chair for about 20mins then go to bed. Rinse and repeat. Wish I had the time for all of this bs let alone it being projected to us as being somehow attainable.

The characters in the videos of my Italian course - without being able to tell one from another, I loathe each of them.
