rf_fozzy Aug 2021 12:10am, 7 Aug 2021 15,056 posts	0 rf_fozzy I initially thought they meant "dustbin box" and shortened it. But the boxes look sealed up?
ITG 🇮🇸 Aug 2021 12:14am, 7 Aug 2021 13,178 posts	0 ITG 🇮🇸 Wondered about dustbox too and also clocked the massive Swiss girl. Surely cheating to have legs that long. Just read about Saltpeter. What a story. What a ridiculous battle to get citizenship despite Israeli husband and kid - only athletic results would do.
Dooogs Aug 2021 12:34am, 7 Aug 2021 7,040 posts	0 Dooogs Just read the same one, ITG - horrid bureaucracy. I've got two passports already but I wonder if I could use my parkrun results to get an Israeli passport (OH and the kids have it already).
