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!

On my run earlier I was thinking about how lots of us old yin’s, or lost Fetchies have become displaced Fetchies. I said earlier about how many of us are real life friends therefore didn’t feel need to keep up chatting on here, and of course other social media.

Other reason I think that we maybe just felt the need to make way for newer fetchies? Back in the day ( fields, Prague, monkey toast) we all new each other. Slowly but surely the site grew and lots of new faces appeared.
At one point there was accusations of cliques, that never sits well anywhere but I understand it. When you’ve been on a site and a forum that was only used by people you knew, and the threads moved slowly enough to see same thread on homepage 24hrs later it was sometimes comforting to stick to what you knew ( cupboard, anyone?)

So maybe we became natural wastage, still here to log training but not lording it over the sometimes nervous newbies who looked at us lot and thought, should I go say hi?

Anyway, just a thought.

Delighted to see the faces I don’t have on fb, proper blast from past, glad to see everyone well and still keeping in touch 😄

That's a good post SB. As commitments got greater and life busier I didn't have time to log runs, blog etc. Now I have got time but just lurk and play a bit on fb or Twitter. Still run a bit. :)
