Current Goal

To travel far and wide, throughout the world, in order to allow as many people (young and old) to see this little book.
As the children at Gomer are between the ages of 4 and 7 they would love to see pictures of Gomer TB in the places it visits.

About This Item

Book about Gomer ready to be launched

The book tells you a little bit about the school where Barbara has taught for 23 years.
Even though Barbara has now taken Early Retirement she still keeps in contact with the school by doing voluntary work there.

Sorry for the delay in logging this but we have only just got home from our holiday in Northumberland. The views from this cache were amazing and well worth the walk. We will try to place Gomer soon in a cache in Lincolnshire.

Hi, found Gomer this morning at 10:02 in Heartburn Cave cache, Mid Northumberland. I have attached a photo of the cave. He's dry, clean and in one piece still. He's done a few miles in less than a month, a long way from Gosport and school. He's now in my house awaiting being dropped off tomorrow in a brand new cache. This cache is the first one I have hidden and it is fairly high up in the North Northumberland hills. The place is called Thrunton Woods. In the far distance he will be able to see the North Sea and to the left he will be able to see the Cheviot hills. Photo attached.
