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!

Serotonin is quite unpleasantly, deliberately in your face transgressive (and misogynistic) early on - so much so, I've not completed it yet - and as someone who reads a lot of Houllebecq too, so probably a good swerve there.

I have read 2 or 3 of Fort but not The Village News. I am constantly looking in here and constantly running away, Tom Fort is the nearest thing anyone one has mentioned that I might read in at least a year.

Currently reading Twirlymen, a cricket book that like all good sports books is NOT about sport ( like Fever Pitch) and Free and Equal, Daniel Chandler.

Looks like it's available in my local library so I'll pick it up as soon as I've finished the Richard Osman I'm currently reading.

I like the sound of Bourneville. Growing up in the East Midlands, I was taken to visit it several times. The first visit, I was bemused to see one of the workers sitting in front of a conveyor belt, holding a 3-pronged fork with which she was making the 3 stripes on each and every one of the Turkish Delight chocolates as they glided past her. All day and every day. Though I think the workers did get swapped between tasks fairly frequently. They also had a 5-minute break in every hour.
