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!

EJ - I was working at the FSA during 2008. There were things HBOS did at the time that haven't come out (and probably never will) that make the current furore quite justified, and overdue.

Paris Brown , 17 , ( Disgraced Youth Tsar ) for attempting to explain her blatently racist and homophobic tweets by pleading she was " still learning the implications of growing up in a social-media age " ....What a dunce !

Hadn't noticed it until it was pointed out to me but I see it all the time now and it's driving me spare. People who use 'then' when they really mean 'than'.

It's 3:00 now, we were expecting said guests at 12:00. Loads of food for the the two of us to eat!
