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!

Oh, not that then. I'm sure there's a thread somewhere which lists most of the icons, but I cannot find it today.

Thanks! I've watched the thread now for next time.

I'm not too upset about the mug. One of my friends had a complete meltdown over the phone at me for half an hour last night because his network connection stopped working. "It just feels as though bad things keep happening to me". His router was a decade old and playing up already, I'd found a suitable replacement for him, all he had to do was go and buy it, but he stayed at home drinking JD instead. But as far as he's concerned, this is the world picking on him, rather than his own failure to plan ahead. Poor guy is in very bad shape at the moment.

Boo badger more first world probs here
After funeral meal last night woke up to find cat had been sick and stained sofa and toilet had been blocked with tissues used to clean up cat sick. I got lightly sprinkled with my own wee trying to unblock and we are now in b&q. "Did you have a lovely evening?" Asked fellow parent as we collected daughter from sleepover. Luckily she didn't stop to listen to response. D meanwhile had been stung by a bee in tent and stung fingers plucking it out her hair. I think life is less trouble when we all stick together :-)
Good news Dio
luck AL
*cheers* for Bintshoppe meet

First World problems here too. I came home from a 10k stroll to find DTB "painting" our huge patio. Delightful, n'est pas? Except he hadn't cleaned it first! Apparently, "I swept it a bit and took some of the leaves off." Other than that, he intended to paint over a year's worth of dirt, sand, leaves, dead flies and lots of sticky seeds. The best part is now he is in the huff because I was not sufficiently grateful and now he'll be on strike all summer.

I'm waiting for the roof man to come this week who needs to climb FROM the patio onto the roof so we can't paint it anyway as it won't dry in time. And the forecast is rain.

If he'd just wait, listen and do things together and do them as I tell him, we'd get on better. You should see the mess he made of my bush! (No sniggering at the back.)

Honestly, given how many million kronur I earned last year - money that is useless anywhere else - I don't know why we even bother doing things ourselves.

Afternoon - just popping in to say thanks for all the luck - had about as enjoyable a time as you can when running 13.1 miles - it was way too breezy on the coastal bits for a PB so I didn't try - so was delighted to finish less than a minute behind my PB and feeling in much better shape than in Liverpool - 1.51.12 - my most consistently paced Half ever. Now doing my best to recover (foam roller beckons) but have to go and watch Leaflet in his dance competition quite soon. Hope to have time to blog later :)

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
