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!

Members of the general public who when interviewed on the telly after experiencing an "incident" (like being in a hurricane or a plane crash or something horrible like that) start to talk in the third person.

"Well, you just think, are you going to survive this? You start to think, will you see your pet ferret ever again?"

How do they feckin know how I would react to being in a hurricane or something horrible?

(Actually, for the record, I would probably sh!t myself and try and hide behind the corner in my brown trousers)

Oh and artichokes, they taste like shite

Isn't "you" tyhe second personne and "he/she/it" the third person?

Agreed about artichokes. I nearly got killed by one once.

Oh and when you cannot finish your dinner It really used to annoy me when folk start to sermonise - think of the starving children in Africa.

I always then suggest that it would be better that I send them this Jeruresalem artichoke soup if they are that hungry.

And grown up people cycling on the pavement when the roads in our town aren't that dangerous. Specially when they make me step off the pavement when I am running. Shooting is too good for them.
