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!

It's choritho. Couldn't get my Spanish flatmate to shut up about Spanish chorizo. But have to remember that Spanish speaking of the South American origin would say it with a z

The difference in the way Spanish and South-Central American sound is pretty big, but I think it's cool. It's like the Spaniards are the tough guys and the South Americans are a bit snobby...lol. I'm sure someone's going to hit me for that! :-P

I pronounce it korreeethoe, which I *think* is the same as JohnJ. Are we saying I'm right?
