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!

What's making you smile today?

Big smiles here because, several weeks after taking delivery of our new car, we've found out how we're supposed to get into it! It's one of these new-fangled keyless jobs. We've been clicking the remote when we're supposed to touch a pad on the door handle. Old people, eh?

[Grumpypants - That reminds me of the first time I hired a car. I'd only driven my old beat-up micra previously, and the brand new 100-miles-on-the-clock car I was given for the weekend had keyless start. I couldn't figure out how to turn the engine on even as I pressed the "on" button - I didn't realise you also had to depress the clutch whilst pressing the button to make it start. Gave the guys at the hire place a laugh watching my panic and confusion and I had to wave one of them over to ask how to turn the engine on to much embarrassment!]

I remember picking up a new car and it was parked facing a wall. I couldn’t get it in reverse. I kept trying and finding myself in first and getting nearer and nearer to the wall. Eventually I had to ask and felt very stupid when the salesman showed me the collar you had to pull up to get it into reverse gear
