+mollyjak Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Please does anyone know NURPU-uk as they picked up one of our school TBs on 7-4-2006 and it hasn't moved since? I have tried emailing twice but the messages have been returned. He/she last logged into the site on Nov 20th. A class of 7 -9 year olds with special needs are the owners of this TB and it is so disappointing for them. The tag was attached to a Red Nose and we will not be able to buy another one. Can anyone help please???? If this has duplicated I'm sorry but it took ages to load Quote Link to comment
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Afraid I have never heard of them, but from their profile it looks like they took three Tbs that day with the intention of them going to Scotland, and sadly, all three are still logged in their possession Quote Link to comment
+Johnmelad Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 we will not be able to buy another one. Why? And sorry you lost your TB. Quote Link to comment
+Matrix Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 we will not be able to buy another one. you have mail Quote Link to comment
+Haggis Hunter Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 we will not be able to buy another one. Why? And sorry you lost your TB. Possibly because the red nose designs are one off designs. They change each time Red Nose day is held, which I think is bi-annually? Quote Link to comment
+scaw Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 one of the other tbs they picked up that day was mine i also have tried contacting them a few times with no reply sorry to be of no help. I feel it for the kids Quote Link to comment
+mollyjak Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks for all the replies Yes Haggis Hunter is correct - the Red Nose was from the year before last, the happy face and coloured strings for hair. That is what the lower ability kids voted for. I can send off the copy tag but they will have to find something to attach it to. Ever tried to get 15 kids to agree when they all want their own way???????They include a child with Asperger syndrome, 2 with behaviour (ADHD) problems and generally low ability. Thanks Matrix for the offer - email replied to. Never mind just wanted to do all that I could to track it Quote Link to comment
+cakemaker Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I don't know why but I kept one of those red noses with the red troll like hair! If that's the one you want send me your address and I'll be happy to post it to you. Hopefully that'll cheer up your youngsters. Quote Link to comment
+mollyjak Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 That would be FANTASTIC Thank you Quote Link to comment
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Well that seems like a super outcome is in sight, now I reckon there's room for some great life lessons there ... you know the sort of thing, it has been kept by someone who didn't mean to but has not kept their promise to move it along within 14 days and someone else who is a Good Samaritan etc. Great result!

That is what the lower ability kids voted for. We have one of those red noses! It's sitting in one of our caches, even as I write! More than happy to retrieve and send it to you if other methods don't help............ We're just about to release our first TB and I have to say that I find it very disconcerting that some don't give them the respect they deserve. Quote Link to comment
+Write and Mane Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 We have one of the Red Nose 2005 - sitting in front of me as I type Can give it to you when we meet Quote Link to comment
+4 Badgers Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Oh, and looking at the TBs travels, GraceSoulfire was the last to have him................... Hope you manage to get this sorted. Quote Link to comment
+cakemaker Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 It's sorted folks, I've got Mollyjak's address and posting red nose off to her class tomorrow. It's certainly surplus to my requirements. Just glad it can be put to good use again. Quote Link to comment

+mollyjak Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 Thank you for the offers Positive outcome Now to research some caches where it got 'Lost' so I can post them the copy tag and Red Nose!!!!! That way the distance travelled will be about the same. Thanks again Lilian Quote Link to comment
+studlyone Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) Its nice to hear a story with a happy ending - big pat on the back to cakemaker - nice one. I hope that the replacement tag has more luck and goes far and wide for the class. Ian Edited January 11, 2007 by studlyone Quote Link to comment

That is one well travelled bear, if only some of my bugs could clock up that sort of mileage - good luck to the replacement bear - hope he covers even more distance than the last. Its amazing how long one of those rolls can go Ian Quote Link to comment
+mollyjak Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 Thank you scaw Just taken your advice and emailed Mr Golem, if he is not able to help I will then contact you if that's OK? If anyone sees this TB please help it on its way so it can clock up a few more miles. Quote Link to comment
