This means that Rag Zombie is now the only entry in The Great Travel Bug Knockout to have yet recorded any milage. It also means that my own The Exterminator! is not looking too secure...

Both mat smith's Hazards of Geocaching 2 (The Sheep) Travel Bug and lgxkls' Hazards of Geocaching 1 TB have been retrieved from Teddy's Treasure by cacher Firstfox, aged 6 days! Interestingly Firstfox logged that he or she retrieved mat smith's entry in The Great Travel Bug Knockout first, which could be important if a tie-breaker is needed...
