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!

Trying to upgrade to Windows 10.

Go to what looks like the right page, click where it says Click, and go to another page. Click where it says Click, and go back to the previous page.

I do, but I tend to catch the end of the news, then the end of Chris evans and as a test listen to whatever arse is on from then on, and see how long they take to annoy me.

Ken Bruce takes less than a second, the usual joke about having an alcoholic drink.
Zoe Ball about 5 seconds (today she spent those seconds telling us she had a cross trainer delivered, how nice if you have THAT much money)
Sara Cox, less than a second, I have no idea why.
Jeremy vine, just annoying, shock jock, more like fuck-wit.

currently have TMS on and usually listen to 6 music.

I'm intrigued that you can manage to tolerate Chris Evans, but not the rest of them. The ginger muppet was the final straw, many moons ago, in driving me away from Radio 1.

for short spells.....
Mayo for shirt spells

i think it just sounds exactly like the radio 30 years ago, maybe people find that ok, enough people listen, I find it awful.

I think Evans has been going downhill since The BB, in fact he is still doing The BB.

Failing to deliver a parcel and saying they tried and nobody was in. But you waited in, the doorbell was working and no bugger came to your door with a parcel.
