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!

the claim that any public body is "working hard".

I want them to be working effectively.

The only propaganda country file could be accused of is from coat manufactures - given the multitude of layers that Ellie wears.

I've always had Country File leaning the other way.

"Here are some fluffy bunnies. Aren't they cute?"

"Later we'll be talking to a nasty farmer with a gun who doesn't like fluffy bunnies and wants to kill them all"

I just find her sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo annoying HOD and I personally don't think she's a very good actress. She's no Clare Danes.

The fact that the No 2 bus goes from the end of my road but never turns up and I have to walk 15 mins in the pouring rain to the stop for the No 1.

What also pees me off is when I discussed it with colleagues they all said "Oh yes, that one never turns up, you have to get the earlier or the later one." Except with the later one, which you inevitably end up getting when the scheduled one doesn't turn up, it's often full and turns people away.

[bizarrely last year in the lakes I caught a bus that doesn't appear on any timetable yet runs every day - and even wierder there was a student doing a passenger survey on people's use of buses :)]
