GC22QGF Poppies on Parade 'Blackwater' (Multi-cache) in South West England, United Kingdom created by DrDick&Vick

This cache has been archived.

drdick&vick: This has been checked out and it seems that the recent extreme weather has caused a lot of tree falls and destruction and the hiding place and cache is no more [:(]
As we will not be in the region for some months I have decided to archive and re-hide if a hide place becomes available.
Thanks to everybody who has taken the time to read about the locals who lost their lives!
