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!

Another fan of home cooked curry here, but we seldom use a recipe. The game changer for us was grinding the spices ourselves each time. We have started making a palak (spinach) based on an online recipe as a side dish.

I'm also a home-cooked curry fan and have a huge folder of recipes usually torn from magazines, printed off the internet or those cards you can pick up in the supermarkets.
Good hints on this thread now for next year's Santas for quite a few fetchie cooking fans by the sound of it!!

And I too am thrilled that my recipient has said some very kind things about the gift I sent too!

I hate cooking and would be happy if I could live entirely off ready meals, and yet people insist on buying me cookbooks that I will never, ever use. I probably won't even open them. Pasta and sauce is pretty much my limit.

I’m not much of a cook and being autistic I eat very plain simple dull food that I like over and over.

Texture wise I hate pasta and anything ‘wet’ or spicy.

I can rustle up a curry or even a lasagne for other people but would much rather have a roast dinner without any veg!

Just seen FSS has finally managed to find away round customs.
It’s beginning to feel like Christmas is nearly here

About This Thread

Maintained by geordiegirl
Instructions for the 2021 edition of Fetch Secret Santa:

1) Send an Fmail to geordiegirl with the name and address you want your parcel sent to by 1st November.

Please indicate if you’re ok to post to an overseas fetchie.

2) Join the group linked to this thread (I have recycled 2020 group so please update with a 2021 at the start so we know it is current)
fetcheveryone.com/groups-view.php?id=1296

If you joined last year but don’t wish to partake you can remove yourself from the group.

3) Be Involved..... Please try not to go AWOL the buying of a SS gift is a lovely thing to do but going quiet on the thread/blogs can make it difficult. We’re not asking you to be specific but a few hints around what things make you tick, what you like / enjoy makes it that bit easier and hopefully gets you something you would like.

Of course the main aim is stalking so subtle hints are fine!

4) if you have allergies or particular dislikes then feel free to put them in the group.....

When you receive the details of your victim:

5) Stalk said victim and determine their interests.

Hint.. you can see what threads your victim posts to by typing the below in Google or whatever

VictimsFetchName site:www.fetcheveryone.com

6) Purchase gift(s) you think they will like, we have suggested £10 but up to you and remember handmade gifts are perfect too. It’s the thought that counts.

7) I’m suggesting you post the gift by 1st December as this has helped a successful SS in previous years. But it’s also ok to add an update to the spreadsheet and keep your elf updated so we can let your victim know they’ve not been forgotten. If you are posting overseas please bear in mind it can take longer than UK post.

8) Wait by your post box for your gift.

9) Sit on hands until the big day! No cheating!

On the big day:

10) Open your gift and share with everyone what you got on the thread.
