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!

I do that on holiday so that I can read in the sun.

At work I hang my specs on my lanyard if I leave my desk, just in case I need to read something.

I've replaced the missing screw in glass with a small staple in the past. I've occasionally put my glasses on when my contacts are in...then wonder why things look really weird! The worst thing is falling asleep with the lenses in...then waking up and thinking my eyesight is perfect again! (if only!!!)

Credit card statement arrived today. It appears that last month I sent a payment with the pence and pounds swapped around banana . Fortunately, this gave me positive credit on the card rather than a deficit, all good ;-)

I couldn't for the life of me work out why the timer plug in my office was exactly one hour wrong on the time display...

I went upstairs three times to get my watch before going out. It's still there.

I tried to unlock the car with the house key.

The other half to that senior moment is that I don't usually need to drive, but my hip was too achy to contemplate walking or running :( I'm just hoping it is a running related IT band thing rather than arthritis which I fear is my genetic destiny.

About This Thread

Maintained by ChrisHB
This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
