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!

Calling someone "mate."

It comes across as so insincere.

Cooking instructions on the reverse of the label


When you open the top first, then have to hold it up to the sky and read it from the bottom.

[My kids think 'mate' is a nasty thing to call someone as they usually hear it the context of me badmouthing other drivers - "Nice on mate" etc etc. Could be worse I suppose...]

Also discovering one has somehow missed out whole words when writing post.

My left knee, that decides on occasions to be an absolute knobhead. As it is now.

The 'entitled' person driving the black Audi car who regularly drives in a straight line across the grass opposite our house rather than turn the steering wheel slightly to go around the minor bend in the road. I *so* wish there were a kerb there.

Can you add a strategically placed rockery stone? (Painted white, of course!) Quite a few on the verges on our estate.
