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!

It does indeed!

I've had a productive day. Finished trimming the hedges and all debris cleared away; while I was doing that I said hello to next door's new window cleaner and having had our usual window cleaner 'ghost' us after 30 years (not sorry, never really warmed to him) we now have one who does not require payment in cash (that wasn't a problem in the olden days but these days I never have cash to hand, and we never knew when he was going to turn up) and clean windows again :-)

But, more pertinent to this site, I've entered something called a swimrun, which will require me to swim in my running shoes :-0 So, @Serendippily when you have a moment, could you add Clevedon Swimrun, 27th July to the sidebar please?

Oooh lovely photos ITG. :-)

LD, I have finished several runs lately where I may as well have swam in my running shoes - the weather has been a bit poo. Your event sounds fun!

I did the last of my sessions with the Autistic Society today, I've been doing 2 x 2 hour sessions every fortnight for the last 16 weeks. Have loved it.

Have fun Sarah! It seems no time at all since we took my niece and nephew there but they're both in their 40's now :-0

Parkrun was awful. I am however noticeably tired physically today - all that hedge trimming etc over the last couple of days was clearly harder work than I realised! A restful afternoon beckons.
