I'm sorry for the lack of updates over the last week, but computer bugs have intervened. Nevermind, The Great Travel Bug Knockout is still in full swing, but not for thejellybabies' My Little Eye TB, whose hopes blinked out on February 1st. Bizarrely enough, someone has sinced logged a retrieval on it, but too late!
Other movers and shakers over the last week have been;
Hediya's Love and Peace (Maan) Travel Bug, which has been retrieved by Canadian cachers teammelbert;
cooper troopers' the noble traveller TB, which was placed into this cache in a northern suburb of Paris, adding 164.45 miles to it's distance travelled and moving up one place in the overall Knockout rankings. Only 4 days later tnt was retrieved by French cacher daniel95. Mention of the noble traveller gives me a good excuse to use this picture;
of tnt before being placed in it's starting cache. Always nice to add an extra photo to the blog!
Another Bug to add to it's distance travelled was Wemnog's The Skylark which was placed into this popular TB hotel, adding 110.83 miles to it's distance travelled. Local East Midlands cacher plantsman soon retrieved the little dinghy and moved it along to this well-researched Derbyshire cache, adding a further 17.28 miles, giving The Skylark an official Knockout distance travelled of 242.99 miles.
Finally, what could be described as a negative move rather than a positive one, as Happy Humphrey's Scary Halloween Monster has been marked missing and I've therefore marked the frightening little TB as current whereabouts unknown. This is especially relevant as SHM is in 15th and last place of the surviving entries in The Great Travel Bug Knockout.
