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 knowing whether the moisture on the bottom of the packet of raw chicken is chicken juice or just condensation.

(I hated handling raw chicken before I went vegan, I cook most stuff for the rest of the family but really struggle with chicken)

You heard a noise, you woke up, you want to know what it was.

But you wanted me to get up and check it out?

And you think it's okay to be snarky about me being not entirely enthralled about something I didn't give a rat's patoutie about in the first place? And what the hell do you expect me to do if a wall has fallen in? (I'd stood the washing basket on its end, it had fallen on its side ;-) )

Some of the idiot things one of the local newspapers decides to write online articles on.

“How you can DOUBLE your holiday this Easter” said the headline. It turns out you can get 16 days off work by only booking 8 days... by taking the two Easter weeks off. Well, I’m sure nobody ever realised that before, and funnily enough, you can do that every year. *facepalm*

Arrogant bloody Cambridge residents. Idiot this morning waddling along the pavement, pushing his bike and looking at his phone, weaves straight into my path. I have no way to avoid him but to step into traffic, so clear my throat loudly. Glares at me and hits me hard with his shoulder, because apparently he is important enough to shove vermin like me into traffic. Sometimes I wonder why I took up medical research.

Idiots who blatantly refuse to pay for their tram tickets and then give a false name and address when caught or walk off at the next stop.

Either that, or those who drink alcohol when it's an offence to do so on TfL transport. I hope the cocky little @!*#@!*s get caught by the British Transport Police who have more clout than ticket inspectors.
