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!

If you're going shopping with a twelve year old, you probably don't need a parent and child space. I could, however, use the extra width to open my door fully and put my boy in his pushchair without doing it in the middle of the road.

Thanks.

Cyclists who get pissed off with pedestrians and insist on touching them on the way past instead of just giving them another half an inch.

I had a cyclist behind me on the pavement today. I didn't hear him coming up behind me either even without headphones. It was fortunate for me I had moved over close to the kerb, not so fortunate for the dog walker with two dogs who I had moved over for as the invisible cyclist zoomed towards him.
