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!

Same here AR. They've grown in numbers massively here the last few years.

I have both... I was hoping they might have some kind of battle and wipe each other out. But nope.

Insect bites.

I'm looking forward to being able to sleep with the windows shut again.

Not sure of this Grinds my Gears, it actually amuses me a bit.

We all get those flyers through the door from the local pizza place, restaurant or visitor attraction.

I have just received one such flyer inviting me to my 'local' pub, namely the Kings Head in Buxton.

Problem is, the Kings Head is (checks Google) 205 miles away and just short of a 10 hour round trip.

I'm sure its very nice, but that is a long way to go just to get "30% off all mains" and "2 drinks for £5"

~ Sounds irritating, Jock. One of our neighbours had one installed when they first moved in. They used it a couple of times then the novelty wore off. Eventually had it removed. When they did use it, it wasn't so much the noise it made that irritated but the stench of the chlorine in the water! ~
