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!

Not enjoying running down the A50 (Derby Southern bypass) :-( Nearly as bad as running down the A6 in the rain at the Derby 10 miles a couple of years ago (re-routed due to flooding!).

Outskirts of Leicester, near "Mammoth Lake", which I can only assume is where they found a mammoth, because it looks like quite a small lake to me.

It's a whole series of lakes of varying sizes, half in the city, half in the county, which were originally gravel pits, now a rather pleasant country park. The Leicester Half Marathon takes you through there. Yes, they did find mammoth bones there, and there's a big mammoth statue on a hill in the park (a popular hill for hill reps).
