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!

Morning! My knees are telling me they don't want to run 26 miles, Dipps, but we'll ignore knees and feet shall we? ;-)

Rain has gone through here but still very breezy indeed - will be fine for the dog walk though, dogs are allowed back on the main beach as from today :-)

Morning! Duvet day here since I start a run of night shifts tonight. Ugh! Will go back to sleep for a while later.

I have nothing but admiration for the marathoners, I can't imagine running that far, and while a teeny part of me would relish the challenge, the rest of me would struggle fitting in all the training. Good luck to you all xx

There's quite a few here (white wallabies, not marathoners) - someone next door to my physio has about 6 in a field.
(worth about £2-£3000 each, apparently)

And this morning my farmer friend has just whatsapped me a picture she took today! Nowhere near as close as I was and tbh it's not overly obvious what it is, but she has seen Colin (the escapee's name) as well. At least we think it's Colin. I mean, how many white wallabies roam the Warwickshire countryside??
