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!

Cnut. Another candidate for licence removal. How do these people get one in the first place?

Traffic lights that are managed by sensors in the road. Great idea for traffic management when you are in a car, pretty crap when you are on a bike and there are no cars around and you and the bike are not heavy enough to trigger them.

It's a shop in London where they sell sandwiches, coffee and croissants. But that's not important right now.

The stupid woman up the road who

-parks her car so it blocks the pavement and the road
-lets her dog hang out of window and bark at people all night
-drives to work ( I walk ) I left after her this morning and as I approach work I see her coming the other way.

Maybe if she didn't drive such short distances and walked her f**cking dog none of the above would happen because she wouldn't need to park after the spaces have gone, or wouldn't be that lazy that a walk of my than a foot to get in the car wouldn't be a problem. She isn't that old / disabled / fat.

People driving with their arm hanging out the window. And dozy twats to busy with their mobile phones and oblivious to everything else going on around them, and I hate to say it but I find women are the worse for this.

Ryanair! Trying to print boarding pass! Why make life difficult when you can make it impossible.

People chucking rubbish out their car/van windows into the park as they pass. I've seen it twice in the last 2 days.

The first one was a whole bag of rubbish all neatly tied up. The second time, I pulled up alongside on my motorbike and I was going to pick it up and throw it back into their van, but I was too slow. Yelled at them a bit though.

People who don't signal at roundabouts.
