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!

Should be Ophiuchus, surely? :)

From a few days ago, BBC Breakfast presenter changing subject mid-interview with two intelligent people about something (I forget what), to ask them what they thought the football result would be. Prefacing his question to one, he said "I know you said you've got no interest in football, but I'll ask you anyway".

Knob.

I hope the answer was "I've no idea".

She inelegantly changed the subject to something about a clock on her wall, and the conversation somewhat derailed into talking about the other interviewee moving house.

It was painful, so we changed channel.

I saw that JK. And WHY ask a Scot what their view is of an England football match FFS?

Every bloody reference to that irritating Three Lions song on my Facebook feed. It has made me quite the Italian fan.
