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!

Is it only the M1 & A1 that have THE NORTH as a destination, and then only once you get to around Leeds?

If you're in the North, is THE SOUTH signposted, or just London?

In other places you're wise to go to different junctions depending on your direction of travel.

Pictures of food sent over social media sites, be they forums or facebook/twitter, to say either, in a zeitgeisty way, "who wants some food", or "look at the lovely food I'm eating". You might as well post a picture of a turd and say "look what a clever boy I am, I did that".

I don't mind foodstagrams. I mean, I don't *want* them in my news feed, particularly, but they usually look as if someone's been sick on the plate. I know it's just that amateur food photography doesn't work, but I find myself thinking, "If YOU eat THAT, I feel a great deal more appreciative of my own dinner, even if it's beans on toast."
