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 great to read of clear signs of your recovery, Groundhog. I wish you well, and hope you'll soon be fully recovered.

One of Helegant's team-mates was not permitted to do the Channel relay swim because he is blind and needs to have someone with him. They have started a petition to ask for a rule revision to catch up with the the 21st century and I ask you to consider signing it.

If this isn't allowed here, please ask fetch to delete it.

Glad you’re recovering GH. I’ve just had a good end to a poor day. It got better the second I stopped working and started complaining :-)

Glad you're recovering, Groundhog.

Doesn't everyone have someone with them when swimming the channel? Or are they (these days) accompanied by a friendly drone?

Boiler expert contacted; he has been involved in an accident and can't drive for 6 weeks, but on Friday he has a driver and hopefully will come and repair the boiler. It heats the water fine, but not the radiators.

Good to hear you're on the comeback trail GH. :)

Hurrah for fetchie meet ups!

Columba, didn't you have a problem with your heating last winter? Hope he can fix it when he comes, just as well it's stayed warm for so long this year.
