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

well guys so much for my achilles, tripped down the stairs monday night and broke my ankle, what a muppet! Still in hospital waiting for an op to put a plate in. Marathon dreams over with a 12week recovery! Using the seriously clunky hospital internet that had been paid for by previous bed tennant! A friend may want my place but if not ...start training, I'll be able to navigate internet better at home!

Noooooooooooooooooo!! I have no idea why I didn't receive anything in my junk box, let alone my inbox! I was expecting an email when I got a message on here. I'd still very much like a place if there is still one going. Please reinstate me on the list - I promise I'll keep an eye on my inbox :(

The last person that I contacted was ebb (still not had a response), as I have already made a attempt to contact ebb I will wait until the end of the week before offering to transfer my place to someone else.
Hopefully that's fair

alexdarkest, the answer is to Fetch more ;-) sorry about the misunderstanding, sounds fair enough to keep you top of list, we want a high fetchie presence in Edinburgh :-)

PJG1, giving someone a week is decent time, given that official transfers are allowed till march, so if Ebb doesn't reply, fair enough to offer it to alex.

cpea, so sorry to hear about your ankle, bugger :-( perhaps you'll come along to support once the ankle is all okay, supporting is as much fun and as tiring, and so appreciated :-)
