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've also been reminded 3 times so far about my appointment next Tuesday. But in fairness to the Blood people, they do need the stuff! I can see why not having an opt out of reminders would be annoying though. ]

A letter every single month from scotblood asking me to give blood. Such a waste of paper and money.

Ditto Dio. Nothing wrong with the charity or the causes. But it makes me angry that such a thing is needed in one of the wealthiest nations on the planet.

Facebook. Why can’t I do something using the app that I can using the browser on my iPad? I’ve not been an admin on a group before so I’m trying to work how to do stuff.

A good move SP.

I quit all social media last year (bar a few forums which isn’t quite the same thing) and haven't missed it at all.
