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!

I am the cause rather than the perpetrator of a certain amount of road rage :)

I think much of my gear grinding is caused by my Super deciding 90 minute team meetings twice a week are the way forward.

This week we had one team meeting, with tn people in it, and it lasted three hours.

Meanwhile, 750ml bottles of Evian don't fit in the cup holders in a Toyota Carolla.

People who think putting their hazard lights on means that they can leave their car where ever they like.

People who put Facebook status updates that say something like 'Everything is terrible :(' But don't elaborate at all. Updates designed to make everyone reply with 'Are you ok?', 'PM me if you need to talk'. Then they never tell you what is actually wrong.

In the same vein as Oysterboy's, people who put updates on public sites like Facebook saying things like that and when folk enquire about what's wrong they will say to one person "I'll pm/e-mail/text you". If it's not public viewing don't put it on public site.

The fact that there is more than one of these wires on Fetch. That and those plastic 'blister packs' that house things like USB pen drives.

Apart from the self-scan checkouts, which are far better than those in Asda or Sainsbury.
