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

[Excellent. Now I know how to succinctly summarise my running career to a South Korean. I'm sure we've had the Dundee United one here before.

Well remembered, Mr Pain.

The only Nigerian phrase I remember is "Too much jigajig cause too much wahalla*". Good advice for any day, though.

* IIRC Wahalla is trouble
