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!

Not half as shocked I was to see FB popping up a photo of me in 1974 yesterday. (I'd shared it 9 years ago.) 1974 - that's almost *pre*history :-0

57.5 Degrees of Pain
Brilliant Sigh, but slightly depressing at the same time.

I enjoyed the fact that a picture at the end if the standard late 70s history book used in Scottish schools (an aerial shot of Harlow to illustrate new towns) pictured the relatively new hospital I was born in and the flat I lived in as a baby.

Our history classes in the very early 80s ended with Churchill winning the 1951 election which would match 1990 these days.

Crikey! I was waiting to see if we would be sent to war in 1990.

I'm now eligible to join this club. Apart from now being a potential customer of Saga, and my chances of dying from coronavirus tripling overnight, are there any other benefits?
um
