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!

When did you last give blood?

Well done! They are not rationed where I go. Sometimes they tell me to take some for the kids.

Hmm, maybe they’re not rationed here - I’ve just assumed they were as I’ve never seen anyone take more than one, and the most recent time when the biscuits and drinks were being bought over to people to try to maintain social distancing, they were only being given one.

I usually help my self to two. I have one while I'm sitting there trying not to be socially awkward, then "one for the road." I do ask / tell them, nobody has ever objected!

Love the motto, Peregrinator!

Err, what is this rationing / quota of which you speak?! My record is probably 5 or 6, 4 choc e.g. kit kat, 2 tunnocks tea cake, digestive and a couple of savour e.g. tuc sandwich x 2! I sometimes have my dinner there basically. You've got to keep your strength up. A pint is very nearly an armful, you know?! :-) G

I usually have one savoury and two sweet. One premium biscuit like Club, and a packet of bourbons or custard creams

I usually have one savoury, one sweet. TUC and a Club, for preference. :-)

I’ve also never seen anyone take more than one biscuit. I shall be on the lookout at my next donation!

I always felt guilty if I took more than one snack. Occasionally I have two (one savoury and one sweet) but only if I think nobody saw 😅
