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!

No snow down in my part of the south east today, but a bitterly cold wind joined me on my pre-work run.

Morning. No walking or running happened yesterday. Snow turned to slush and it rained. Didn't fancy my chances of remaining upright. Strangely I'm very happy running in/on snow and ice, just not slush. Snowed again overnight so there's now about an inch of damp snow on top of slushy puddles. Yuk!
Snoozing today since I'm on nights as of tonight.
Pity TP who has entered a 20 mile trail run across the Black Mountains tomorrow 🤣

Morning gonks. Stay safe everyone.

I was meant to be in Birmingham today for an exhibition (Grayson Perry) but we made the decision to cancel yesterday. Lots of snow here in Chez Vegas, me and Sal may go for a wander to town later and I need to pack up an order at the studios and post it today so we'll do that so will get a decent walk in.

Parkruns are starting to cancel round here....

I'm fine, the landing was soft. I slithered for a while, so my kit is extraordinarily muddy and the washing machine hates me. I also had to bath the dog (usually a two-person endeavour) when we got back, which meant I also had a bath - unintentionally and by proxy, so to speak.

Morning all. Properly snowy here. I have “enjoyed” a good couple of hours of shovelling. Gorgeous sunny day now.

Hurrah for soft landings Carp!

Hope a calm weekend will sort you out TB (())

Funny old weather here today, it started nicely,



Then deteriorated to a storm whiteout with all lifts rapidly closing. Fortunately, we'd just chosen a run where we could get back from instead of having to wait for a bus replacement. It now can't seem to make it's mind up so I'm home for the rest of the day now.

Looks lovely, Alpen! I expect they are a bit better equipped than England ;)

Right, young people. What is "YOLO"?
