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!

What do you know today, that you did not yesterday?

There's a Currys next to Budgens now?

Just had a look on Street View. There used to be an escalator down to something else right by the entrance to Budgens when it was a Budgens. Is that now the gym?

Of course, I'm recalling what it was like back in the days when Chris Martin out of the Coldplays would have been picking up his pot noodles from there.

I didn't listen to Tarrant, I preferred Russ and Jono on Virgin Radio. I presume both those things are still going strong.

Bob Prowse, who founded the Bob Prowse Health Club in Maidstone (which I believe was Maidstone's first 'fitness club' style gym), was Dave Prowse out of off of the Green Cross Code Man's brother and used to run his gym in Southwark.
