Retrieve It from a Cache 1/1/2007 Papakas retrieved it from North of London Travel Bug Hotel Eastern England, United Kingdom   Visit Log

Although poised to hit London this TB will have to wait for that opportunity again as I can take a detour to a St Mary's stadium today on my return to Southampton!

I'll have to see what local cache/football club combo there is around here

Since last log Steve bloomer's new boot's visited Spain - tempted by Bacelona or Madrid - but only made it to Niguelas 2nd 11 and even then failed to find the cache " puente colgante" GCT3Q2

Having returned to England he's found this cosy spot- I don't know what the local team is like, but the castle location has potential as a football pitch!

Retrieve It from a Cache 2/13/2006 Renegade Rabbit retrieved it from The Cockatrice Southern England, United Kingdom   Visit Log

Retrieved from The Cockatrice. Thought I would take the 'boot' to a real football club - Reading FC. I will then release it and hopefully someone may take it to some of the London clubs. Brilliant idea for a travel bug by the way, like it!
