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!

Iris, if it's a picninc you want then start a picnic thread up. It can be an extrapolation of the Fetch Socials I reckon.

Naturally we will be eating somewhere after these races and will sort something out and it may well involve a picnic here or there BUT I think the primary focus is on the mile races with food and refreshments 'somewhere' after the event.

To my mind there is nowt to stop us having just Fetch Picnics while the weather is with us.. :-)

No I didn't mean it like that Iris, I was just making a suggestion that I hoped woul dmak eyou happy. We will have picnics of that I am sure but perhaps you could take over organising such events and start a thread up etc so we can use this thread to sort out the racing :-)

Sorry I didn't get chance to talk to you the other day too by the way. I'm sure we will get chance some time soon though :-)

Ohhh, food and running definitely! Or I won't survive the running :-)

I like the idea of a series too! especially hilly miles and off road miles, of the downhill variety :-) My strong point is my downhill running or should I say descending? Being from the netherlands, I don't do flat very well :-)

Richard won't be joining us for a bit though, he has the op on his foot next week :-( let's hope he recovers quickly and gets back to former form, so Ally will have some competition :-p
