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!

Braved torrential rain and got to, and slightly past, Ludlow castle. Another badge for the collection ☺️

I went through Hay Castle halfway through my run this morning, so I'm a third of the way to Fetch Towers :-) .

I've been to Hay only once, when I went through it after cycling down from Hay Bluff (brilliant descent :-) ) on my way to Kingston, near the Welsh border. I had a short ride around Hay before leaving on the B4350, although I stopped off at the Co-Op on the edge of town. I had to cross the River Wye to continue.

On the way home from Kingston, I crossed the Wye via the same toll bridge as going. Going out I wasn't charged, but on the return I was!

In the CC, I am now on the same road, B4352, that I used in the early part of my cycle ride back to Cambridge. I remember it well because it was raining heavily and the road was covered in red water with the run-off from the fields.

Where I am stopped for a couple of days now, I don't remember Chris Armstrong https://www.google.com/maps/@52.1012137,-3.0257733,3a,75y,157.73h,81.49t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1siiVcUiCXCTwDth-xvBnq-A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 who appears to been having a rest.

I hope he is friendly and lets me in out of the rain.

Some way behind Darwin, I finally made it past Chepstow thus morning.


I think there’s a church behind the gate, but they don’t want me stopping to find out.

I have not moved very far in the past week due to migraines. Today I had a little shuffle and bagged myself a roundabout for the night 😂
