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!

People who empty various bins but don't put a liner in, so you go to flip it open with your foot/elbow and 2 hands worth of peelings or whatever, to find you have to put everything down and get a liner. Grrrrr.

people who put recyclable items or food waste in the landfill kitchen bin, hence filling up said bin and making me go through the bin to retrieve the recyclable stuff and getting mank all over my hands
people who put stuff in the kitchen bin in such a way that the liner slips down and everything spills over the edge, making me get mank all over my hands and mank all over the bin
people who don't even fucking bother to check if the bin has space in it and just chuck it all on the work surface nearest to the bin rather than opening the cupboard
When I say 'people', I mean Mr fleecy...

Might improve your core fitness, especially if you peel off at the end.

I'm completely OCD about recycling! I even pull veg waste out of the main bin to put in the compost bin.

Oh and FlyTippers. WTF? The local tip is a mile away, Stop dumping your crap in our lovely side roads you lazy wnakers.
