Like guests on the show it is now your opportunity to consign an annoying item to Cache 101. The cache itself is a green ammo box. Log the reason’s why your item has been dispensed with into the 101 Cache (the more amusing the better)!!!
Of course you are free to exchange your item for someone else’s discarded item and you might like to log why you feel it should be “saved” from the cache.
The location of this cache is a viewpoint (Beacon Hill) near the town of Newbury. On the top of the hill with its outstanding views you will find the grave of George Edward Stanhope Molyneaux the 5th Earl of Carnarvon who discovered the Tomb of Tutankhamun in 1922.
The original cache went AWOL, so we have replaced it and have tried to put similar items in it.
These are the original items assigned to the cache and our reasons why.
Teddy Bears.
Why do all women want to turn the bedroom into a sanctuary for cuddly creatures? Men don’t want to compete for a place in the bed amongst furry pieces of stuffed rag that do nothing but lie there and look endearing to women NO the bears have to go.
Holiday Souvenirs.
Why is it friends and families insist on bringing you the tackiest souvenirs they can find on holiday. For this reason we are consigning an Australian boomerang to the cache, were tried to throw it away three times but it just keeps coming back.
Coloured Socks.
Brightly coloured and fancy patterned socks look absolutely hideous on anyone wearing them and all socks should come in one shade black. For that reason we have placed a pair of fluorescent yellow sock in the cache.
Paperback novels
Couldn’t find a “Mills and Boon” so stuck a Catherine Cookson in instead. Need I say more!
Perfumed Drawer Sachets.
Isn’t it funny how old people want to try and make you stink of Lavender. You do someone a favour and they insist on rewarding you with a “little gift” just what you’ve always wanted clothes smelling like they belong to an old wrinkly.
Yucky Music.
Has some aged Uncle reliving the past ever given you a CD. The one we are consigning to the cache Is “Victory 1945 a Celebration in Sound”. It contains such tracks as “Kiss me goodnight Sergeant Major” & “Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye”. Sorry it just has to go.
Holiday Maps
You know what I mean, there you are in a foreign country “lost” so you pop into the first filling station you come across, handing over large amounts of money for a piece of folded paper that will be of no use to you in two weeks time.
Bath Sponges.
There you are lying in the bath just about to wash those important little bits, you reach for the sponge and their staring back at you is some strange creature. I don’t know about you but all I want to do is get myself clean, the thought of something looking like “Jaws” or a “demented frog” whooshing around my private parts does nothing for me.
