Day: 21 June 2026

  • Dan sits on a park bench in Leicester Square, alongside a bronze sculpture of Paddington Bear.

    Found GC9P505 Paddington Bear & friends (Leicester Square)

    A morning meander around the local (mostly virtual) caches under the guise of checking the condition of the West End Live queue, while the rest of my group enjoyed a lie-in, eventually brought me to take a seat alongside this iconic bear. TFTC!

  • Dan in front of a tall pillar in the morning sun.

    Found GCBJ704 Seven Dials Sundial

    Approaching from the West I was foiled by the glare of the rising sun in my efforts to claim this fascinating monument from afar and eventually had to walk all the way past it to line up my photo!

  • Found GC38EQ3 Underground

    Initially thought I'd be able to find this one without the hint, but when I couldn't get fix to closer than 8m I took a peep at it and was instantly aware of where to search. Soon the cache was in hand and I was back on my way. TFTC!

  • Found GC240NQ West End 1 - The Beatles

    Stood around for a bit reading about David Bowie while I waited for the waitstaff -on their pre-work fag break down the alleyway - stopped their muggling and went inside. Glad I came early while it was quiet here! TFTC.

  • Dan stands on a London street, gesturing to an old water pump (against which a man reclines).

    Found GC5E4E Catastrophe, Calamity, Cataclysm Part 4

    Can't do the physical today, but scooping a pic with the virtual during a morning walk around the neighbourhood.

  • Dan stands in front of a scaffolded fountain at the iconic Piccadilly Circus.

    Found GCAJJCJ Piccadilly Circus (Virtual Reward 4.0) ใƒ„

    After nine hours on my feet yesterday queuing for and then attending the first day of West End Live in Trafalgar Square, I somehow decided that the best thing for my poor legs would be to get up early while everybody else slept in, to come walk around and find a virtual or two. Right around the corner from my hotel, this was the first!
