Current Goal

This TB has been released in honour of a Bristol Cacher; ValliantKnight, the pursuer of FTFs. The TB must stay within the Bristol and Bath City areas and can only be placed into a cache not found by the Knight. This should encourage him to find some non FTFs. The guardian also carries a coin pouch, please swap coins, or discover them but do not let the pouch get empty.
All other cachers must try to nab the TB before the Knight can and move it on.
We will keep a running tally on how close he gets and how many times he finds it.

About This Item

OK VK I hope you have some light weight armour in your castle and enjoy going up hills 😉. As any good knight knows if the castle is on high ground it makes it harder for your enemy / door to door salesmen etc to spoil your slumber. So this little chap is now resting his tired legs and sleeping in a cozy cache on top of a hill. But the views are great.

  • VK 1K on top of the world. Well over looking the hamlet of Axebridge actualy and looking out for raiders.

So the good Knight is unable to brave the rain and get this TB – ran out of ‘Acme anti rust formula’ for his armour I suppose - LOL 🙂. So decided to make hay whilst I had the chance and took the dog for a nice long walk along the estuary but got a soaking into the bargain, however, the TB was mine!!!! Now to find some ware suitable to drop this fellow off and tempt VK out of his castle.

I know where it is, but alas, am not in a position to get the tinker at the moment. Things are looking grim for the Knight!
Will recapture it soon!
