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!

Morning

Today’s newt was telling a lost runner where to go! Never had to do that before! Give them a hilly and less hilly option too!

(I had a riding instructor who used to tell a story about doing a dressage test on a young horse who she could tell was going to take off if she attempted canter. So she didn’t. This is roughly equivalent to turning up at the start line of a 100m race and then walking the whole thing. She also had a story about a horse who was scared, and backed up until he backed into an ornamental flower pot, and then sat down on it. At least Princess Popcorn did neither of these things.)

Am bit Luddite here, Elaine, but nothing like as bad as Raffo. Despite being nine years younger than me he just won’t do social media and thinks email is the correct way to communicate anything. Via his Mac of course.

My kids had a teacher named Elaine Lane. She was horrible, they called her Lane the Pain.

Mazlin one of the very few actual real life dressage tests me and Mo did involved her remembering the wrong test and me vainly trying to persuade her we were doing a different one (she was an ex-eventer). She also spent one whole test shrieking for her best friend with me hissing ‘shut upppp’ under my breath.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
starblackheartstar The sixth running of Do a New Thing for Spring starblackheartstar

Lent has a special and specific meaning to Christians but has become an secular season of denial and hair shirting that serves no positve purpose. No chocolate, no booze, no -er - other stuff.

Why not treat the build up to Easter - as a chance to celebrate and embrace NEW THINGS - that's what spring is about after all.

The first few pages of the thread give more ideas.
