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!

For those of us who lead unexciting lives but know slightly prominent people.

I know someone whose daughter is going to play rugby in New Zealand for England U18s

I worked with a lady who was part of the first GB Rugby League teams to tour Australia and win a series. She was recently inducted into the RL Hall of Fame.

(I'm not a Rugby League fan except in this very niche and narrow respect.)

Jeez. I suspect that among my friends, family and acquaintances, the closest anyone has got to renown is being featured on Police 5.

And remember, keep 'em peeled.

I really should have pulled this one first: Great Aunty Betty, 1936 Olympics. Diving.
