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 have been wanting to do it for a few years but with life stuff I haven't been able to.

I do like "No Jar Lid is Safe".

There's actually a gym in a church up the road from me called "Give Me Strength".

That’s a brilliant name. And yes, no Jar Lid is Safe was a particular favourite of mine too :-)

I won’t hit 100 hrs this year but it might have to be a target for 2023 so I can see what the next badge is.

I don't think I'll be collecting these badges as I log under different categories, but I can live with that. :)

Opening jars is my least favourite thing as I don't have much strength or stretch in my hands. I usually have to resort to a kettle to help.

Alpenrose, you need a jar-key gadget. You lift the edge of the lid to release the vacuum and the lid unscrews easily!

Don't even need a tool, just hit the edge of the jar lid on something to break the vacuum. Not too hard though!

I have a rubber disk thing for opening jars, from Lakeland. An old swimming hat works just as well.

And in case you're wondering about that title, well, I like alliteration and one can be too po-faced about the use of girl/lady/woman.
