About This Item

Derek

 Derek the Duck is released in honour of 'Cheer Up Robin - spread your wings!', who in an attempt to visit every county in the UK, only made it as far as Cornwall via 6 other counties.  Hopefully 'Derek' can 'go the distance'.

Please move on throughout the UK as quickly as possible (if successful he may go 'international' some time!) - in an attempt to visit every county in England.

All being well, I'll update regularly with 'counties visited', and 'counties remaining' as this little fella moves along his journey.

It would also be great to get some photos of Derek along his journey; please post to the site - perhaps taken with some new found friends or something or some place representative of your 'county'.

Good luck Derek - keep in touch!

Discovered It 6/2/2013 cheesescones discovered it   Visit Log

Discovered in the Sands of Time cache. It has an Olympic mascot attached which makes it rather big and cumbersome so left it for someone who visits lots of large caches.
