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!

People referring to their bicycles as their "steeds".

And people parking on the pavement. Even just a little bit.

People referring to their motorcycles or cars as "she" or even worse, giving them names.

I don't mind the parking a little bit on the pavement, but down my street people park across two thirds of the pavement, even next to lampposts where it makes the pavement completely impassable. When I run, I always go right down the middle of the road. Use my space as a carpark, I'll use yours as a footpath.

I mind the parking on the pavement, big time. It's OUR fucking space, you drivers can fuck off and use your own, you selfish fucking fucktard wankers.

Though yes, someone calling their bike a steed needs a firm slap.

Not cbeebies, which is wonderful, but the US channels that compete with it.
