London behind the London eye
26 names in our log book well done everyone
Have you heard about World Wide Flash Mob or WWFM
It’s a 15 minute cache event which is simultaneously held around the globe I was emailed by a fellow cacher who was surprised that we did not yet have one in our capital city like so many other countries have.
So what was I supposed to do? Hold my own event!
Okay there are rules
At the first stroke of big ben (17.00) you will be given a cache sheet which must be signed and handed back before 15 minutes have elapsed big ben will strike quarter past(17.15) and off you go on your merry way into the night
Only those who have signed the log within the time will be allowed to claim the event cache
That’s the basic idea now over the next few weeks I will put some meat on the bone
I will add transport links
Update: We will have half a million muggles to contend with and a massive fireworks display but this makes for probably the loudest and busiest cache event ever HE! HE!(same day as the lord mayors show)
