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!

One that really got me was someone saying they'd found a butterfly in their living room and they let it free and now they knew that Nana (or whoever) was watching over them.

I really wanted to put, ''no, it was hibernating and now you've put it outside to die.''

People who allow their hedges to grow far over the boundary line and block part of the pavement. I have an urge to buy a hedge trimmer....

In the same vein as Cackleberry, I promise that if I ever die I won't drop feathers on my surviving relatives.

The phrase "shame on you". Really? Is there anything more sanctimonious, self-righteous or judgmental than that. I feel the need to poke the eyes out of people who use it. Horrible.
