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 smell of a soaking wet wool suit after being caught in an absolute deluge of rain whilst out to grab some lunch.

The way the people who work in call centres with premium-rate numbers manage to string out calls for as long as possible.

FFS, FOURTEEN MINUTES to change my daughter's train tickets from next week to the same times this week, and that's not counting the time eL Bee! spent this morning before being told that he couldn't alter the booking as although it's a joint account I'd used my card, not his, to make the booking.

I won't even start on the £10 administration fee per journey ... or on my dippy daughter for selecting the wrong dates!

Subject: TEA URN [NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED]
Importance: High

Classification: NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED

PLEASE BE REMINDED THAT, CONTRARY TO THE SEEMING CONVICTION OF SOME MEMBERS OF THE TEAM, THERE IS NOT, REPEAT NOT, AN ARMY OF LITTLE PIXIES THAT MAGICALLY FILL THE URN UP FROM AN ENCHANTED BOWSER WHEN THE WATER LEVEL RUNS LOW OR, IN THE CURRENT INSTANCE, THE URN BECOMES EMPTY.

SORRY TO DISAPPOINT.

Those 'Geo Amey' vans that drive around with dangerous people in them.

Seriously - can't them make some kind of monorail so the freaks don't have to ruin my run?

Scary knowing people on their way to prison are travelling past you!

Also when the 'Geo Amey' vans are at the supermarket... what are they doing, getting the baddies snacks?
