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!

On the subject of dog owners, this morning seems to have all the numpties out. You see a runner coming, so let your dog cross the path on a long lead, whilst you hold the said lead on the other side of the path!!! How do you expect me to get past when there are cars on the road!!!!!! Grrrrrrrr.

People who pull out of a junctionin front you forcing you to slow right down when there is absolutely nothing behind you. Just wait an extra 10 seconds for me to pass you fuckwit and you can pull out safely and without annoying anyone.

Bus drivers who assume that putting on their indicators gives them automatic right of way to just pull out in front of you.

Fitz - they do have the right to pull out. There's a bit in the Highway code that says you should let them.

People who think putting your hazards on means it's fine to park wherever you want.

Wobbling - there's also a bit in the highway code that talks about "mirror signal manoeuvre". I have been known to stop in front of a bus get on and advise the driver of this...
