Anyone doing this walk box 3 and the bonus box 3 are missing - taken by our "friend" the box thief!!!! My hope is that they have really been taken in as some of the stamps on this walk are a bit waterlogged and away from the backing. I would not be surprised if the box thief did get them as some genius that had been on the walk before us left some of the boxes out on top of the rocks in full view of all and sundry - I did wonder if I had disturbed the thief in mid act but there was no one about! If anyone else has a box out south of Hessery and the TV mast and towards the track running towards Princetown Church you might want to check it as there was another obvious removed box near the bonus box site. For info, the Seeker has placed a really nice stamp in memory of IKKI from the Moorland Marauders in the Fox Tor Cafe - just ask for the book and stamp if you go in.

Nearly all the boxes on North Hessary and Kings Tor were removed last year

Interesting you mentioned The Seeker - I bumped into him a while back whilst he was putting out a series of WOM boxes. I got a few travelling ones from him and also got one of the memorial stamps around Staple Tor.

Do you have a any WOMs to swap? I am sure he wouldn't mind us letting you have his walk - we have promised to keep an eye on the boxes for him as he doesn't get onto the moor as often as he would like. PM us if you would like it.
