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!

It's emails that just say "thanks" that bug me. I didn't need that reply to add to my dozens of other daily emails. Guilty! When someone has given me the information I require to do my job I feel it’s appropriate to thank them, I promise I will stop on 12 December.


lol - it's so British.

If people don't respond with a quick 'Thanks', the matter remains open in my mind, at least until it is crowded out.

The alternative in Outlook is a thumbs up or similar emoji, but Microsoft being the twats that they are manage to make that annoying to receive by sending you a fucking email about getting a thumbs up...
