Current Goal

This is number seven in my hobby bug series. Each travel bug stands for one of my hobbies and has a related quest. In addition they all want to meet up with their siblings again to share some time in a friendly cache and exchange travel stories before setting off on their journey again. A picture of such a meeting would be very much appreciated. Other than that the hobby bugs would like to travel freely and meet people from different countries and nationalities.

About This Item

new TB

It all started when I realised that pound coins look different every year and then tried to get a complete set. In addition I now collect euro coins, state quarters and generally odd leftover change from foreign travel. I stick the coins onto the mantelpiece of an unused heater where they make a good conversation topic.

If you collect anything (coins, stamps etc.) as a hobby, please tell me about it in the log.

The original coin got muggled, so I am sending a small coin collection on its way to continue the mission

Retrieve It from a Cache 4/15/2011 Claxons retrieved it from Hillside Hollow Northern Scotland, United Kingdom   Visit Log

Being a birder I collect sightings of different bird species here & abroad. I used to collect Scottish Munros until we'd climbed all 284, also their 'tops' - still have 2 of them to go but they're probably too hard now. Also collected Italian Dolomites over 3000m. Moved on to the 8000m peaks- sightings of them from treks that is, not actually climbing them! Seen 13 of the 14. Maybe get the last one later ths year? Also collect rocks, at least ones I can carry. All in all I guess I've collected alot of wonderful memories.

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 1/19/2011 englishpete grabbed it   Visit Log

I found this replacement geocoin in GC292G6 Thirsty Work.
I enjoy railways and have a number of N gauge locomotives and rolling stock I also photograph trains mainly freight, and collect the odd number, on a move to York and as I get older and less mobile I may do more train spotting. Well it is like caching, except that instead of tracking miles to get a cache, you find a likely place and let the trains come to you. hahaaha !!
I'll move it along soon.
