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!

Watch Michael Mcintyre's Christmas special this year Wine Legs and tell me if you still like Dame Edna.

Totally with you on the out of stock never to be resupplied items though.

Similarly, supermarkets who lure you in with emails about special offers on the booze, only to be out of stock each day of the advertised offer. Miraculously, the shelves were full again the day after the offer ended. (I'm looking at you, Morrisons, and your "£10 a litre bottle of Baileys" scam).

We are still talking about Mrs Brown's Boys aren't we? I just keep seeing that abbreviation and think Men Behaving Badly. Now that was excellent.

Fragile Do Not Bend
People who seem to say everything that pops into their head and don't have any sort of filter for what is relevant or not.

We've just had someon come round to quote for removals, he was a lovely bloke but talked very fast, went off on all sort of tangents and kept changing the subject abruptly. I'm glad my husband was there as my brain can't deal with that sort of random conversation and I got very tense. I have no idea what he was going on about half the time and I had to get my husband to translate after the removal bloke had left.
