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!

Fetch, it’s some really clever tech using cameras.

Packaging you can’t open, in this case bottles of oil with plastic lids where you are supposed to pull off that stupid little strip around the lid. It always breaks and I always have to use a sharp knife to open then bottle.

Webpage on road proposals using artist impression photographs without any indication that they are mock ups and not actually real views. Not the only place the council is guilty of this. my.stirling.gov.uk

My Garmin swallowing the session partway round when I've deliberately chosen the route to get lots of blue circles.

Mr Ness has fallen asleep on the living room floor and is snoring. Normally it’s fine but at the moment it’s driving me up the wall!

you should have been working in my garden today or yesterday, Dave. In fact, if you'd like to do that....

Tailgaters. The limit is 40, it doesn't change for another 200 metres, if you really want to do 70 RIGHT NOW I'm in the inside lane, go break the limit in the outside lane rather than trying to cause an accident. 260 miles today and a worryingly large number of people who don't appear to know what their speedo says or what the speed limit is on the bit of road they're on.
