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!

Sounds like British Gas. I fully anticipate issues after the recent account switches.

Can’t seem to turn heating on. It was fine when I moved in and tested it in June

families, specifically family dramas - don't let something fester into something its not, and don't get upset when it's mentioned, accept a difference of opinion and try to accommodate as best as possible. *** big sigh***

Three letters arrived today:

1. Opticians reminder - already been five weeks ago and new wearing glasses.
2. Covid-19 seasonal booster reminder - already booked in for this week.
3. Broadband advertising.

All completely unnecessary and a waste of time and resources. No wonder the postmen have had enough. My postie brother has already quit this month after fifteen years!

As predicted, the switch has caused a fuck up with my account. Can’t believe how incompetent they are.

Fragile Do Not Bend
I’m sitting in the car waiting for Mr F’s train to arrive and I’m faced with a row of cars all with their headlights on, which is giving me a headache. Ok I get they want to run their engines for the heating but why do they have to leave their sodding headlights on?

I've had this rant before, I don't understand why they don't turn the engine off, its hardly going to suddenly get cold inside the second they turn it off. I guess they will complain about the price of fuel...
