I've not being paying attention for a long time but it now appears that the original TB was not 'lost in the post' as I had been told but was actually out of circulation from 24/11/2007 to 26/06/2014, but then reappeared, which is quite remarkable.
In the mean time, the copy tag had been released and lost from the very first cache it had been placed in. I've now removed the logs relating to the grab and drop back in the UK relating to the copy tag. As no photographs of the lost copy ever appeared, the attached item was a section of buckled bicycle chain and the tag was fastened to it by passing one the the rivets from the chain through the hole in the tag first.
I will now endeavour to reinstate the listing for SMART was well as I can, perhaps I can retrieve the text from one of its long since missing racing buddies. My sons 'Sharky and Penguin' who were 7 and 8 years old have now grown up and left home, I've moved to the other end of England and our cache to which SMART was supposed to return was first adopted when I moved and later archived. I'd love to see the astonishment on the faces of my sons to be presented with their TB 15+ years later, so it would be fantastic if it could return to the UK and then come to Cumbria. I'm intending to start caching again after a long hiatus, so I expect I'll have a suitable cache ready to become its destination before it gets here.
