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!

Fat blokes pedalling bikes who don't at least give me a nod when I tell them "well done" while I'm running :)

Fat blokes on bikes, in black, in the dark with an ex-light house lamp on the front, and nothing on the back.

Dick heads.

Oh, and that dick the other day who was cycling at pace down the pavement, less than a foot away from the (useful) cycle path.

The cyclist on the pavement the other day when there's a perfectly good, wide cycle lane on the wide, straight road. I ran in the centre of the narrow pavement and made him stop while I went past. Petty, but satisfying.

Me too carp, especially if they are travelling at speed.

What really grinds my gears though is having to spend two hours of my holiday with my wife's social climbing, materialistic, self-obsessed, divisive, rude, ignorant, fuck-witted cousin. I am never getting those hours back, or the next two hours my wife spent moaning about her to the mother-in-law. Luckily the rest of her family are lovely!
