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!

Grammar pedants - help please.

If you had two semis you could convert them into one big one. Get that Sarah Beeney in to help.

Nonsense, they all have different status.
FD, then all language is freestyle in spelling, punctuation and grammar. Whereas it may free communication up to flower in its creativity, it's going to make for difficulty in understanding. Also, your system assumes agreement for both parties, how does one resolve a dispute if meaning is inaccurately conveyed?

Ironic Dio, because she has two large ones to convert into one big one.
