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!

Yep another one here for news reporters making stupid obvious statements.

Football. It may come as a shock to some people but there are actually a lot of us who really couldn't give a monkeys about who won what and where.

While I'm at it, the collective term that supporters use. 'We did this' or 'we could have done that' or 'you didn't play very well did you?' It wasn't you that ran around a field for 90 odd minutes it was the team players on the pitch!

I think if I spent a day watching the 20 minute repeating cycle on some of the news channels I'd find myself on it. "Mild mannered man goes on rampage"

being the only person in out of a team of five (bored - no-one to talk to) and the fecking IT connection being so hideously slow that it's taken me 2 hours to finish something that should have taken 30 mins.

Taking (wife's) car for two new tyres yesterday, and being told the MOT expired about 3 weeks ago - aaargh!

Meant it had to be booked in again for today, so no gym this morning as planned for me :-(
