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!

Thanks, Dipps, I was aware of the technique, I was just suggesting you go for a run like that to demonstrate your mastery of the art.

I once saw a runner running a race carry a Sony Discman in the palm of his hand like he was a waiter taking a plate with a bill to a table.

I am going to put on running gear for my dog walk and do some gentle running with her.

I have enough trouble running and staying upright when I'm not carrying anything :-)

Morning all. Off for a very sociable couple of days once I've packed a bag and filled the car with petrol :-)

And they say waiting tables is not a skilled job.

I can just about manage one cup of morning coffee and even then I sometimes burn myself.

Swim planned latter.

Well done Idris. Impressive pre-work session.
My ds did his first stint as waiter at a sports event last night. You could compare notes Dipps :-)
