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!

Great North Run

mr leeds at one time in the gnr there was just a flimsy rope to keep the runners in the correct zones..so there was mucho cheating especially by me ;-)
now ,im afraid there is big metal fence erected with stewards at each pen..you have to show your number to get in..
toilets not a prob mind everyone uses the grass verge ;-)
there was a guy with a cam-corder one year taping girls''goin''
he was apprehended..not sure what did ever happen to his footage mind
anyway mr leeds,you are mighty fast and will soon work your way thro :-)
