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!

"Motorway Maintenance" signs on vans/lorries. Apart from being a base lie in most cases precisely what is the message supposed to be? Perhaps I should put one on my Landrover "Sheep breeding"

My family constantly asking when I'm going to find myself a "male friend" and "buy a house" and "have children as time is running out"

I think I was asked 6 times yesterday evening.

My mother and her "you look so much better now you've put on some weight Emma" observations.

Thanks mother :-(

FreshStart are you actually me....?
Not only did my family cover all of those things but I'm also an Emma.
It feels weird saying my proper name on Fetch.

DON'T DO IT - the server won't be able to keep it.

Parents comments are strange - my mom says things to Mrs J that she would never say to me, quite cutting sometimes.
