+MoonHerb Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Does anyone know of a GeoCacher who goes by the name of 'Gypsum_Fantastic' ? According to their profile they're from Wincombe which is north of Cheltenham (Glos). I know this is a long shot because they found three caches on the 23rd of August 2005 and none since. The email address that they've registered with at GC.com is now invalid . . . . The problem is they grabbed one of our travel bugs ( Leaving the rat race ) and then disappeared. Their email address was 'karyn@spiritualized.freeserve.co.uk' which now no longer exists Any ideas ?? Quote Link to comment
+The Northumbrian Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 I dont know them, but this is a fate of a lot of travel bugs, people coming into the hobby and then just dropping out, and still keeping hold of coins and bugs Nige Quote Link to comment
+KiwiGary Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Hi, No I don't know them either, but they are a lot of Newies at the moment that don't understand the concept of travel bugs. I recommend everyone puts a tag on them, it seems people think there are just normal trade items. See ya...Gary Quote Link to comment
+MoonHerb Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Maybe they're just waiting for the weather to get better !! It's a little concerning that their email address bounced !! Quote Link to comment
+Haggis Hunter Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 This is quite odd, as their log suggests, they have got the full concept of the travel bug. It may be possible that something has happened to one of them, and they haven't came back to the hobby, as their post for the TB does appear to be promising? Quote Link to comment
+stora Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 It does not look very good. According to their profile on GCUK they have only 3 finds on one caching trip in August 2005. http://stats.geocacheuk.com/cachers/view_c...444369&go=Go%21 Quote Link to comment
+Bill D (wwh) Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I did a few searches, and there's an eBay seller called gypsum_fantastic. Their profile is here. Their location is given as Manchester, but they've been a member since 2002 so they could have moved and not updated their details. Or of course they could have moved since they signed up with gc.com. It might not be them, but I think it's worth a try. You can contact them through their profile page, though you may have to sign up if you're not a member. If that's the case and you don't want to sign up, you can contact me through my gc.com profile and I'd be happy to contact them on your behalf. Quote Link to comment
