James Milne Wilson Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

pinkpigredrat: It's with a bit of sadness that I am archiving this. It may be the case that I bring it back at some point, but to replace will probably take me two trips to Preston (one to measure up the space and then another to fit it).

In normal times this would be easily possible, but with covid restrictions along with family and work commitments it's too much for me to do at the moment.

Thank you for all the finds and favourite points. Don't hold your breath. . . .but maybe at some point in the future. . . . watch this space!
