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 Womble! Glad all is good there. All is good here, hardly any running as I have been busy interviewing for two jobs, I was lucky enough to be offered both and the one I have accepted I am very excited about! Finally getting out of my current job, getting out of customer service at last! I will be a training manager for my new organisation and I can't wait! My office is right opposite Mr Lemon's office too so commuting will be so much easier. Honestly, I can't believe it, and I start on 15 Jan and I only have 10 more days in my current job. Yeaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!

I'll wish you all merry Christmas but I'll pop in on the Big Day if I can and see what you are up to. :-)

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy new year.
Congratulations Lem and you sound so happy.

Bit manic here too. Poor son is away on rigs this year so won't be home for Alfie's birthday which obviously is Christmas Day and their first Xmas as Mr &a Mrs so we will just have to make it all the more special for him.

Have a good one folks x

It's been a bit quiet in here lately but I notice that quite a few of us are signed up for the SAP 5 tomorrow. Hope you can manage to get out and do it sometime over the next few days. :)

Hope you all have a Happy Christmas. :)

Merry Christmas SAPs!

I won’t be doing the SAP 5, still coughing up vast amounts of gunk 🤢

The last couple of months have been a write off running-wise, I hope I can squeeze in a few miles before the end of the year to bear last year’s mileage total.

December's been a funny old month, we've all had outages from running to scupper our targets for varying reasons. :-p

I had a lurgy for over a fortnight, as have some of you, work things, moving, snow, head stuff..........
I've reviewd my target down to 666 :-o just to give me a new all time high and have 20 to go. Bike today, then SAP 5 tomorrow.
