Simple & Fun Cache Series
Eckington replied to Jango & Boba Fett's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland

.............OK, my anatomy is from about 40yrs ago, but as the foot is considered the more specialised organ, and therefore has probably got less bones I'll go hand, recollection says 2 hands = 54 (?) bones. (I think the foot or rather 2 feet, have 50 or 52 bones) -

Film cannisters and magnets wanted
Eckington replied to grapsy's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
I went into a local chemist and asked them for a few cannisters and came out with two bags of them! I only wanted 5 but the lady behind the desk had an "all or nothing" look on her face and had to lug them around the shopping centre for over an hour As for magnets I got some from a recommendation on here. I think it was magnets.co.uk but it was definitely Eckington's recommendation I have no conection with these peeps at all . except I buy their Magnets ! -

Eckington replied to walkergeoff and wife's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland

Foot and Mouth Disease Outbreak
Eckington replied to The Forester's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
....which is why, as far as I know at this time, only caches within the exclusion zone, in the Great Park, and my own caches on paths within agricultural land, at this time have been disabled.
