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!

Hi Minardi

Have you eaten at The Ball House in Wainfleet Road? Looking for a place to eat on Sunday before the race

It's not as good as it used to be but if you're staying at the Burton, it's better than the Burton & the Mill!

We're staying in a cottage in Swineshead. There doesn't seem to be a surplus of places to eat in the area. Any recommendations? Last year, we ate at Bizzarros but they aren't open on Sundays.

The barge at swineshead bridge is very good.

I'll be doing the full, hopefully, 1st marathon so hoping the training will get me round.

WickedD lives around there - he should be able to recommend somewhere. Alternatively come into Boston and try the White Hart (my fav), the Italian Connection or Prezzo

Did you get somewhere booked to eat Colin?

Jovial Gnome is a marshall on Monday (he was last year too) and is concerned about the number (or lack) of toilets at the start - apparently the number of entrants has quadrupled but the number of toilets has only doubled :-o Consider yourselves warned!!

*must remember to start checking weather forecast for Easter weekend*

Who's in for next year or are we all waiting to see if we get a VLM ballot slot?
