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!

Dippers, I have asked Fetch whether it would be possible for all threads tagged "bookgroup" to have the main thread as "sticky" related thread.

The other solution would be for a link to be included by McGooey in the About section

I largely agree with what you say about Kindred, Dio.
