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!

Afternoon (just). I'm sitting in the changing rooms at the Lido, waiting for the 12:15 session to begin. I thought the session started at noon, so I'm getting quite cold even before I get into the 3* water. The good news is that this is the last Lido dip for me til they re-open with heated water at the end of March :-) My two March dips to complete my challenge for this winter will be in the sea (which will be warmer than this) or the lake (which won't ;-) )

Thanks, LD and Carp.
My back isn't that bad but I know that professional physio will help and reduce likelihood of relapse. I cannot do any sports but I am loving life out here, despite the madness. Even feeling guilty about loving my life when so many colleagues, friends and strangers are facing the abyss. Trans people have already lost the protection of the law. I believe they are just the front line. I have the privilege of an EEA passport and a secure-as-possible job.
Off to NYC later so really cannot complain.

Happy tea time gonks. I'm off to track in a while. It's not quite as cold as it's been but still not tropical.....

ITG, it must be very interesting and slightly mental out there.

Glad you are managing to enjoy the US ITG despite the madness. Seems the whole world is being turned into the Trump show these days (and definitely the worse for it).

Morning all
