Current Goal

Mrs & Mr Meeple are racing across the world to return home to Bishop's Stortford, UK!

You have found the red Mrs Meeple!

They were released together in Berlin, Germany on 4th June 2018.

First one to be dropped in a cache within 10 miles of Bishop's Stortford, UK wins!  In the real world this means the winner gets to lie in on a Sunday morning for the following 12 months whilst the loser has to get out of bed and make them breakfast... 

Help me beat the blue Mr Meeple!

See how the race is going, Mr Meeple's trackable journey can be found here TB8X45R.


 

About This Item

Mr & Mrs Meeple

What are meeples?

Meeples are used in modern board games as player pieces.  Usually each player has a different colour.  Probably the most famous example is the game "Carcassonne" where each player deploys their meeples on the board to score points from different structures that they build throughout the game.  Check it out on wikipedia if you are interested - Carcassonne is a great game, loved by families and focused gamers alike!

We love modern board games and we love geocaching.  We have brought the two hobbies together in this trackable race.  My trusty red meeple will be representing me, whilst my husband will be represented by his colour of choice, the blue meeple!  Let's see who gets home first! 

 

Mrs Meeple is part of the Meeple People Family, look out for the other meeple trackables:

The Meta-game Meeples (TB8X45W) that are traveling to important board game related destinations. First up “Carcassonne”

The Lost & Found Meeple (TB8X483), who is travelling to San Diego in time to meet his owner there in January 2019.

The Lost Lorry Meeple (TB8YMBN) who is recreating an accidental journey between the two English counties of Hertfordshire anda Herefordshire.

 

Please note: No actual Carcassonne meeples were harmed in the construction of these trackables....that would have left us with an incomplete set....

Long overdue update: So the red Mrs Meeple lost the race a quite few years ago. I don’t think she ever made it out of mainland Europe. The blue Mr Meeple did make it back within 10 miles of “home”, but he then got a bit stuck. We learnt of his return through the geocacher carrying him, but were unable to retrieve him for a while, as he didn’t make it into a local cache. Eventually we were able to bring him home and he now lives in the bits and bobs drawer.

The red Mrs Meeple however isn’t ready to retire to the drawer and is happy to go on a few more adventures. Maybe one day she will make her way home, but there’s no rush for now.
