500 caches within 8.9 miles from a rural part of Solihull.

The Health Protection Agency carried out a seven year study of needle stick injuries within the medical professions, of the 2140 cases examined, there were no reports of HIV or Hep B infection but markers for Hep C developed in nine people. So you see the chances of getting a Blood Bourne Virus (BBV) are very low. In saying that, the first thing you should do (ok second thing after swearing) if you do get a needle stick injury is to squeeze the injured part and make it bleed then wash the effected part (we carry alcohol gel in our caching bag), and in the next couple of days see your GP.

Working for the local NHS Ambulance Service, I have passed on GPS co-ords via control to the Air Ambulance with no problems.

Thank you Electric Penguin, for letting us know that our Wyken Wizard coin TB1KNE is possibly a pebble. It was really strange, as you say, it went into the ‘Between the Lakes’ cache then eight months later it suddenly appears in Spain and is now in Germany even though its goal is to travel around the UK. As you point out, some of the comments state that the coin is ‘inventive’ and ‘heavy’. Well it’s not that heavy at just over an ounce in weight and 1 7/16 inch diameter. We might ask the next cacher that picks it up to let us know if it is something other that a geocoin. Keep you posted

Way to go Gal, well done

We felt it in Solihull, it woke Mrs. D up - did the Earth move for you baby?

An excellent pub with excellent beer. But alas will not be able to make the journey up north. Have a good’n Dizspell Cachers & CAMRA life members

Excellent detail, One can almost make out Landsharkz in the bridge lattice work. (the nearest the spell checker came to Landsharkz was handshake).

Hi Stuart, To help the appeal a little bit more, we have ordered another couple of coins. Regards and thanks for your hard work, Dizspell

Have just ordered two silver and one gold. All the very best, Dizspell

Oops, that reply popped up twice

Wyken Wizard and Auntie Clockwise are a very prolific cache setting couple from the Coventry area. They have produced a number of non track-able coins such as the Sir Galahad one. As well as being able to buy the coins, they can sometimes be found in Wyken Wizard caches as a ‘First to Find’ prize. The Wizard and Auntie have recently produced their first track-able coin. If you visit their website www.wykenwizard.co.uk, I am sure you will be able to find out more about their coins. Richard Dizspell

Great idea Stuart, we will have two. Richard and Dizzy Dizspell

All the very best and get well soon Dizzy and Richard, Dizspell
