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!

Forgot my sports bra so couldn’t run directly after work. Only realised after tipping the contents of my bag out at 5 o’clock

Went home, left my garmin in the office

A different kind of senior moment. I quoted Batfink’s catchphrase to 3 colleagues - and then realised they were probably all too young to remember Batfink.

Talking of catchphrases it's a good few years ago that a colleague giving a presentation and wanting to cut down the description of a process used the phrase "in true Blue Peter fashion here's one I made earlier".
Only problem was this was at a conference in the Netherlands to an audience of predominantly mainland European engineers

I'm too old to know Batfink's catchphrase...

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.
