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 little melodic trill they use to precede announcements at French train stations. Drills into your skull...

Absolutely, TB. Just back from France and that was driving me mental. Not subtle or understated in the least. It's like it was specifically designed/written to annoy.

People not indicating. If you don't indicate I will assume you are going straight on. Not left or right, but straight on you utter fuckwit.

The generous people on Knoll Beach today who let us benefit their selection of music on their ghetto blaster (are they still called that these days)?

The wanker who overtook me after I put my hand out to indicate I was turning right.

These arseholes who feel the need to wish their friends and/or relatives a happy birthday via the medium of bedsheet and spray paint, hung on a road sign.

Any search engines (Google and Bing, I hope your ears are burning) which imagine, that when I search for a retailer, I really want

most of all, to buy something from e.g. Google or Bing
secondly, to read an advert for a directory entry or a review relating to the retailer
thirdly, to read a directory entry or a review relating to the retailer
or, more pages later than I can be bothered to scroll through, and so this is mere supposition on my part, actually to go to the website of the business concerned

Double parking. Don't be so bloody lazy, park on another street and walk.
