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!

I mentioned on the TBC thread that there are bridges elsewhere - in particular, there seem to be 14 public bridges and tunnels across the M25 in the seven miles west of J8.

The idea of a Fetch event along the M25 has met with more resonance than I expected.

Such a thing must not be mixed up with the TBC, hence a new thread. McGoohan is organising the next one of those.

I will happily arrange something if there's going to be a reasonable take-up.

HOWEVER I would sooner have something in an AONB, with which we in the south-east are amply blessed.

Signify your interest in one or the other here.

I'd go for something that _isn't_ going back and forth over the M25 :-)

Yes please, although distance from home begins to be an issue if we go too far south.I'm not sure where j8 is but it sounds very south-y.
