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!

So, accommodation's pretty expensive isn't it?! Does anyone have the inside scoop on anywhere cheap and and reasonably clean/comfortable for the Saturday night? One of my mates lives in Brighton but he's rather inconsiderately moving up to London the weekend of the marathon!

Fravage try one of the easily commutable towns rather than Brighton. Think like London where you are looking 25 mins minimum travel to get something affordable.

We are in Eastbourne (staying with magpie's parents), which is easily doable on the train in the morning :)
