Congratulations!
We would like to say a very big congratulations to Optimist on the run and Harry the furry squid, better know to us as Simon and Liz, on their engagement. To celebrate they are hosting the following event:

This should be a fun event. They will be providing tea, coffee, cold drinks and a selection of home-made cakes, some geocaching related stalls, with representatives of Severn Mega and GAGB in attendance. They also plan to put out some new caches in the area, and there will be other activities during the afternoon which they will announce later, so log your ‘will attends’ now to stay notified by them.
