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!

I’ve just walked past The Hand and Flower, going back to daft pub names.


Big Tom's place?

Rather boring name now. The Oxford. How dull?

Now, that seems to be Hand and Flowers (plural). I’m in Olympia not Marlow

I went to the Butt and Oyster pub last week.

It's a lovely place, great Orwell views but I complained vociferously about the fact there wasn't a picture of an arse on the sign outside.

Oh, hello.

The Whittle game show was the first time I was made aware of Tim Vine. He, and the show, were terrible - but it was Channel 5 so it's not like anyone was watching... (And it was marginally more entertaining than 100%. And a lot less entertaining than Sunset Beach...)

I have a concern about the Clag-Gone™ It appears that to be effective, one would have to pedal in reverse. An easy thing to forget, with potentially unfortunate consequences. For that price, I really think it should have incorporated some kind of directional reversal system, to enable normal pedaling.
