A bit of everything; placements, retrievals, grabbing, missing and disallowed milage!

Relative newbies to caching, rallisalli & hawkeye, who claim that their occupation is having fun (my kind of job!) have retrieved cooper troopers' the noble traveller from Round The Bend From Yonder Man! They also took possession of oceanblue07970's Half Hearted Travel Bug by grabbing it from this Derbyshire cache near the famous village of Eyam. Half Hearted had been placed into this cache by newbie cacher the-scout, who may or may not be related to the TBs owner ;-)

After a little argy-bargy with Half Hearted being grabbed back and logged in and out and so-forth, the end result is an opening distance of 13.84 miles being recorded for the broken-hearted trackable, almost enough to jump it into the Top Ten entries in The Great Travel Bug Knockout.

There's been a second instance of disallowed milage, as cacher Baira has transferred Happy Humphrey's Scary Halloween Monster TB from her temporarily disabled In Search Of The Golden Cache #4 to Keep Crossing Clear. As Baira has already moved this entry, the resulting 29 hundredths of a mile will not count. You may scoff, but that could be sufficient distance to keep a Bug from elimination...

Finally, a cacher has reported that Smart451's Smart Car 10 Knockout Racer has gone missing from Edinburgh's Crag & Tail cache. I'm currently in the process of attempting to track down this TB's whereabouts, and hopefully will have soon heard back from whoever has taken it.
