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!

They tend to give easy roles to new volunteers, and explain very clearly what you need to do

There's also the slight matter of being out of bed and fully awake quite early.

It's usually 8.30-8.40ish, I'm sure you'd manage it somehow :) Volunteering at parkrun is a lot of fun, I seem to volunteer more than run half the time.

I'm having my gears severely ground by sitting next to a nail-biter at work who appears to also be eating dead finger skin or something.

Bradley Wiggins' crass clowning at the medal ceremony in his event......Shouldn't have accepted the knighthood if he's prepared to disrespect his country at such a moment ( and , by implication , all his compatriots including myself who have contributed to the funding that got him to where he is ...)
