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!

I heart orienteering. Its the most fun you can have on two legs :)

I did a red course today, didn't feel like any tough navigation.

Cavey theres a training event next saturday, at Rivellin (spelt so wrong!) I think. Good for a first go... you'll need safety pins though - they don't do the electronic punching at the training events.

Yup, it's fun, possibly not the most fun you can have on two legs, but then I've got a good imagination... ;)

Yes, it is good! I only gave it up so I didn't have to be on the West Midlands committee anymore! ;)
