Current Goal

Current mission : To help you find The Bank in South Wales!  

Previous job - to rob The Bank! See The Bank Job (tbbankjob.wordpress.com)

I am now a Flip Flop and hope to carry on my mission!

 My mission is the same I just look different!   I will help you find The Bank GC43V5P but you must leave me in a cache in the Vale of Glamorgan or nearby so I can help others.

About This Item

Flip Flop aka Percy!

3rd Re-invention:

I am now a yellow and red striped flip flop!  Please be careful with me as people keep losing me!

 

 

My history:

2nd invention: I have been reborn as Cyclops - I only have 1 eye but I still carry the knowledge you need to find The Bank!

I'm green and mean now!

Read below if you want to find out how I started out:

My name is Percy the Pilfering Plumber and I started my travels in The Midlands taking part in a TB race. I have lost an arm so  I am truly a One Armed Bandit but have reformed my ways!

This was my first race (and first time I had been out on my own!) so I needed all the help I could get!
There were 2 banks - one in South Wales (GC43V5P) and one on the South Coast of England (GC43TN5)
I managed, with lots of help, to be the first to rob the South Wales Branch of The Bank and now I can help you find it!

Please don't take me out of The Vale of Glamorgan/South Wales as my help is needed here. Once you find me you will have the co-ordinates for The Bank GC43V5P - Good Luck!

 Don't forget to leave me in another cache, near here would be good, so someone else can also find The Bank.

(This TB was given to us by our daughter, Geoibsons, who looked after the original Bank  in 2012)

Thank you

Ah-hah! This pilfering plumber has been laying low and has escaped my best efforts to catch him for a number of years.. Percy has now been captured by ffiligirl who has him under close supervision but allowed me to interrogate the suspect at the Croeso I 2018 event in Porthcawl until he finally revealed his information on the Bank Job.

Thanks for sharing!

I think I should rename this TB as Re-invented! This will be the 3rd time and hopefully lucky, that I have transformed!
This time I am a Flip Flop as I keep flopping and flipping into something else!
Please be careful with me as I need to be available to other cachers so that you can find The Bank - South Wales GC43V5P.
Once you have noted the co-ordinates I am carrying please place me in a cache in the South Wales area - preferably Vale of Glamorgan.

Unfortunately I have been removed from this cache without being logged so my owner will mark me as missing ....again!
I wish cachers would be more careful!
