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!

Yes, we give the optician at Specsavers a very big pat on the back for being so very very thorough when he saw her on Monday afternoon. It's meant 'a stitch in time' has certainly saved a much bigger problem.

Good news LD - we're currently trying to visit a friend two or three times a week while she recovers from detached retina surgery. The friend is someone who's always active, so she's finding it quite a struggle

That’s why when any patient phoned trying to see a GP for an eye problem we told them to see an optician instead as they have the tools to look into the eyes.

Good news on OH's eye, LD. Less good that plans have been suckered, but fun to be with the grandchildren.
I ran today but struggled to do even the "easy" pace that was suggested, let alone the faster progressive chunk. Not helped by wind and lack of zing. I need to reorganise my training schedule as I did legs day at the gym yesterday, followed by a 40 minute run. I think it's taken it's toll.

Well done NSC.

Good news on OH, LD.

I got my 8th 100 mile month ticked off tonight. ✔️ What made it even better is that I did a pyramid session at track (1,2,3,4,3,2,1 mins with run recoveries of half the time after each interval. I went through 5k in 24 mins. Hoping that stands me in good shape for Saturday when I'll be attempting a club standard bronze time of 23.58 or less at parkrun.
