Hey Andy,

I have been conversing with Yorkshire Tortoise about finding my UK box
that was part of the Britain in America series (headed by catbead).

I gave her the registration number and she and her friends checked the
latest Dartmoor 100 book and the box is not listed.

Can you give me a head's up about where the (several) UK boxes that
were sent to you and registered by you ended up?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Warrior Woman,
Thanks for your email, it was nice to hear from you.

Unfortunately I have not been able to place the boxes as of yet. Since the boxes were delivered by the bakers dozen I have been studying at university and have been unable to make the trip in order to place the boxes. I have, in fact, only been to Dartmoor twice in the last 2 years, so my letterboxing career has to be well and truely put on hold. However, this year is to be different and I have 2 planned visits to Dartmoor in the near future. The first will hopefully be on the 18th Feb and the second being in early April. If I can identify a suitable route for the boxes, prior to my visit, then i shall place them on the 19th Feb - failing that I shall use the 19th to locate an appropriate route and place the boxes in April. As the boxes will be making up a 'route' (due to the amount of stamps) I shall put together a route/clue sheet for them which will, obviousley, be made available for all those who supplied a stamp to pass on to whomever they wish. They will
also appear in the Dartmoor catalogue updates and then in the catalogue itself.

i realise that the delayed placing of the stamps will be frustrating for all concerned but I hope that you can understand my placing priority on my studies, in which i have uinvested a great deal of time and money.

I have also, nearly, completed the carving of stamps to be sent to those who sent stamps over.

Kind Regards
Andy

Hi Andy Wilkes!!!



We also hope you have a trip planned to Dartmoor on the third week of
September this year when The Bakers Dozen group + more visits the moor as
The Moor Tor-ists.

Email me privately and we can discuss this further. I even planned for you
to have your own bed in 1 of the 2 cottages we've rented.



Mark
