Farewell January...

The first month of 2012 has come and gone with lightning speed and word has it everyone has hit the grounding running this year. We hope you had a great Australia Day. Last week, we officially launched in London (check out our launch issue here) and when you next hear from us, we'll be in the US researching. We've also rebranded under the .com domain and you can now find every archive of each city's fetch online (very handy for travelling). Our Instagram pic is thanks to @owenandvokes , whose photos show us a unique look at Brisbane's landscape. Cheers, team @thefetchbris
