Paul Humphreys Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 (quote) Well, there's some sort of wierdo wandering about on the Wayfarer! Whilst passing by today, noticed that the box, so kindly donated by CRAG, was missing. Either it's been unscrewed and the screws replaced, or it's been wrenched from it's position. And it's not only 4x4 drivers unhappy about this - a group of about twelve cyclists were quite vociferous in condemnation of whoever's removed it. Is another one a liklihood? Regards, John (quote) I have just seen this on another forum, Dose anyone know anything or when it was last seen? Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Humphreys Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 Hi All, As some of you will know the box on top of the Wayfarer, North Wales was vandalised and removed from where The Countryside Recreational Access Group (CRAG) had replaced it after the old one that had been there for about 30 years had been vandalised. I went up there this morning to see it I could find it. I did find it as you can see in picture 2, picture 1 is where it was removed from. The other pictures, 3 and 4, are the state of the box. Lucky enough the signing books were still in the box, so not lost this time. I (CRAG) will do my/our best to get box fixed back in place by the weekend. Hopefully it will stay in place this time. Paul PS If you can not see the pics then pm me an email address and I will send them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Humphreys Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 The last date was the 21st, so it went some time in the last week. I will be going back later this week to rebolt it down. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Humphreys Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Hi All, I have not replaced the box as yet. Reason for this that Richard, from Mill Services has offered to make a new one. It is going to be from 4mm plate. As soon as it is made then I will go and fix it down. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
