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!

Am sure it's been said before but..

Four yoofs walking abreast towards me on the payment as I'm running. Seriously, where do you think I'm going to go? (I'll give you a clue, it's not out into the road..) It's been a while since GCSE physics, but with my (not inconsiderable) weight and my (admittedly pretty inconsiderable but still faster than they were going) velocity I think they're coming off worse than me.

And they reckoned I was the 'fuckin' idiot'..

Pretend spirituality.

The stupid high voice that posh mummies use when talking to their babies in public.

Most of the yoofs round here get out of my way. It's the OAP's I have problems with :-0

EP - Just call the Police each time it happens. They're very quick to hunt down owners and threaten them. We did it and it worked a dream.

Thanks CStar, it has now stopped so I presume someone has sorted it or someone has smashed it, someone probably being the police/vigilanzia! When it happens again I will start phoning, its one of those really really annoying alarms that goes off for 15 minutes then stops for 20 seconds before starting again, drives you nuts!

People in car parks who are incapable of following the one way signs and then look at you like you're the one in the wrong when you're angry because they've just drven into *your* space.

People who park in the disabled spots when they have no disabilities, and on the subject of car parks, those people who can't be bothered to put their empty trolley in the designated place, just plain lazy. I don't like lazy people.
