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!

Cats generally don't like lavender!
Or citrus... I have issues here too with 6 tom cats belonging to two neighbours destroying parts of my garden.
They particularly like to shit in the greenhouse tomatoes. It stinks AND tomatoes being watery, absorbing sh#t from the sh#t, I am not sure how safe they will be to actually eat 🤬

If you can find a curry plant, cats don't like those. Nor garlic. I sprinkle some crushed garlic in to my beds and it seems to keep them away.

I don't have issues with vampires either.

The whole carpark at work is empty, but the same woman keeps parking in my spot.

Of course, it doesn't say 'Cackleberry' on the tarmac, but I have parked there (or attempted to park there!) every day for the 6 years I have worked here.

Sod off!

The junction improvement works on the A3/M25 interchange that has reduced each slip road to just one lane meaning that there are always big delays there, even at 11:35pm on a Sunday evening. I'm very glad I don't have to drive through there every day.
