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!

You must be on a similar commute to me, Oysterboy. I get people running for the bus, only to get off two stops later. Then when I arrive at my office, my lift takes ages to get to the 11th floor because of lazy wotsits stopping it between floors 2-4.

FS - You should see the ridiculous prices charged for Triathlons. Still cannot get my head round why they need to charge so much.

I paid a lot of cash for the Etape. I paid even more to get a medial note from my doctor for permission which consisted of taking my blood pressure and then writing about two sentences. Took about 5 minutes and cost about £100.

I'm in the wrong game...

People whose sole reason in going to the supermarket is to get the free tea/coffee at the end as if it's the social highlight of the week

The media ;

- my screens have been full of Russell 'Parklife' Brand, Cheryl's miming, and Robbie Williams over the last 2 weeks.

- Nothing about what Alan Eustace did though.

I find that odd. Was it because he wasn't backed by a trendy drink company, or isn't a cool, trendy dude? Who knows.
