A Postcard from Tony (who the heck is Tony‽)
I received another Postcard From The Internet; this one's written on a very unusual medium, and that's not the only thing that's odd about it... another thing is that I can't work out who its from, beyond the first-name-only with which they've signed the card. Who are you, Tony?

Did not find GCBX0R7 War Memorial #???? ~ Standlake
This checkin to GCBX0R7 War Memorial #???? ~ Standlake reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Well I feel especially thick right now.

Three(ish) Weeks In Spain
