Transport Numbers in Film & TV ? Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

MJB343+RPB111+NJB: Thanks to everyone who has found my Dad's caches over the years. He enjoyed setting tricky puzzles but he loved it when people managed to work them out. I used to spend days with my Dad just heading out to random locations and seeing what we could find. My Dad died last year after a battle with cancer. He was strong, brave and never let it bring him down.

He has various caches open currently. I live in the North West and cannot continue to maintain these caches. I have therefore decided to archive the caches. I may bring a couple back at some point but for now I will close them down. I have taken over his account and will continue to build on his total finds.

I will think about you everytime I go looking for a cache. I love you Dad. I miss you.

Rich (RPB111)
