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!

The one I've bought yesterday that is easier is this one from Argos:
argos.co.uk
It's a metal bar covered in foam

Having the right weighted and sized hoop makes so much difference.

Hooping on the Wii is still hooping, I assume, RevB

Got the hoop that GM recommended - it's huge! Definitely garden only I think.

Managed about 10 mins, but need some new moves! Will check out a few videos :-)
