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!

It's surprisingly easy as evidenced by my blogs at the beginning of January 2015 :-)

Ha Doc you better believe it! Although it sounds as if the bit Fleecy, Wine Legs and I got lost in, around Battersea, on TBC1 (I think) is the bit that McG says is out of bounds now anyway.

It's not looking good for me for the June TBC - our Devon builder is at last starting work on phase 2 this week and June 10th will be our first opportunity to go down and check on progress.

I did make maps for TBCwhichever, and the big boys made them into paper darts and flew them into the river. Or at least, I don't think anyone really felt they needed them.

I was hoping I'd be able to get along for at least part of June's, but logistics of playing a gig that night say no.

You don't need maps, the Thames path and any diversions are signposted and anyway no-one ever runs alone.
