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!

Last night I went upstairs, put my phone on to charge, went to bed, read a little, put the book down on top of the phone and then realised my phone was lost. Couldn't find it anywhere and satisfied myself by reckoning that I'd find it when the alarm went off.

Put kettle on, got mug out of cupboard then couldn't find tea bag. Yup, you've guessed it ... it was tucked in my waistband 🤦‍♀️


I don't tuck a hankie there but I do recall going to blow my nose on a teabag in the past! 🤣

[I'd choose under my bra strap rather than the waistband of my tights as the place to stash a hankie.]

When I said hankie, I meant a tissue 😉
(Interesting side point. In WW2, evacuees were given a list of things they had to take with them and six handkerchiefs were on that list. When I work with school children at the National Memorial Arboretum, very few know what a handkerchief is! That really me feel my age 😂😂).

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.
