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!

Dio, in my house it's mostly the males who do that. Really winds me up.

Fucking elderflower trees. Bane of my life, every time I turn around there's yet another one growing somewhere.

My boys do that, Dio...Only I would never buy them white socks. Actually, I don't give a shit anyway if their white stuff goes a bit grey. Life's too short :)

The guy who was running today on a single lane country road with his back to oncoming traffic with earphones in. I drove behind him in a 3.5 tonne van almost touching his heels for 5 minutes before the road widened enough for me to pass.

For 5 minutes I tried to get past and he didn't even know I was there.

The cyclist who pulled out on me with his IPOD in and then indicated.

I'm a cyclist and this sort of arse is why we get a bad reputation

Yeah whats with the female inside out thing. It's bad enough having to stick a wash on but then having to turn everything the right way round again is annoying.

If my husband puts his clothes in the wash inside out, they stay inside out. I don't mind doing the washing but he can straighten his own clothes.

I wouldn't mind if they were completely inside out, some things are meant to be washed that way, it's the neither one nor the other state that irritates me.

Balled up socks and trouser legs all bundled up. They don't wash properly and don't dry properly either.
