JammyLu May 2013 7:41pm, 27 May 2013 675 posts	JammyLu Well done everyone that ran You all did great Glad to hear it gave you all a boost! I remember when I did it too how much it helps to get the cheers! Unfortunately we did not have a water pistol this year to squirt at everyone but the loud horns made up for that!! Was great fun at Fetch point - would recommend it if you are not running

McNewbie May 2013 11:48pm, 29 May 2013 12,085 posts	McNewbie JammyLu, did you not see me squirting water at the back-of-the-packers? It was on request, I was not harassing the runners,, no matter what some fetchpointers claim to have seen Oi, Renters, stop nicking my idea!
Smout May 2013 12:12pm, 30 May 2013 4,621 posts	Smout All I saw was some poor wummin almost choking to death with water dripping down her face an chest and apparently unable to speak english...... she stumbled off in the general direction of the course before the sweepers arrived
