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

Percy has been missing from here for a while so I have "removed" him from this cache and reinvented him! He now looks like Cyclops!
Percy had only 1 arm and Cyclops has only 1 eye! He will reappear in a cache near here!

As Percy has gone AWOL Cyclops will be taking over his job - to show you the co-ordinates of The Bank : South Wales.
I will post a photo of the new TB when his arms, legs and head are all glued on!
I will also let you know where he is hiding.
Watch this space!

Discovered Percy today while out doing caches around Monknash and Marcross, unfortunately we'd ran out of time today so couldn't pull of the heist right now. Think we'll wait for the next shipment of gold bullions to come to the bank before we make our move.
