The Secret Policeman's Ball Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

wykenwizard: Did a maintenance visit as it has been mentioned that there is no ball. Well, someone seems to have nick nicked the policeman's ball in August and the film container was all that remained and that in full view on the ground. There is now a policeman with a missing ball! Decided to archive as balls aren't easy to replace, especially policemens'.
