Current Goal

'This Compass is trying to make it's way down to the south coast (more specifically Brighton, UK) as we are moving there is July 2016 and wanted to see whether it made it there before us'.

Our initial mission for this trackable was to get to Brighton by Summer 2016, which thanks to everyone, and the final stage by rob77, it did by February 2016. So..... having been moved on by aquanauts, it needs a new venture, and as it is setting of for Glasgow, what better mission for a keyfob of the SS Great Britain than to visit the islands of Scotland, taking in as much of the mainland on it's way through? 

Jan 2017 update - this trackable has a will of its own.  Having left Scotland, and via a few other exciting locations, it has now found itself in Maine, USA, in the care of papollo & wifey.  Let's see where they will place it.  We no longer think it wise for us to set goals for this compass.  It will go where it wills.

Thank you for your help with this journey.

About This Item

The SS Great Britain Compass has been chosen as our trackable as Mr HearneHousehold was originally from Bristol, where the SS Great Britain was originally built in 1843.  Many nautical miles later she was bought home from the Falkland Islands to Bristol in 1970.  We are hoping our trackable will also have a long travelling life.
