Update! Take the top 6 and shuffle them up a little...

The top 6 placings in the 2009/2010 EmCache TB Race have been shuffled a little, with greedygreenfrog's Greedy Green Frog having been placed into this Californian cache, between San Jose and Santa Cruz, adding 6145.3 miles to it's distance travelled, and pushing it up to 2nd place overall.

Update! Pat, the 2009/2010 EmCache Hide'n'Seek Champion

Oceanblue07970's Pat's Special Delivery Travel Bug continues his eratic progress in the 2009/2010 EmCache TB Race by disappearing from a cache in Scotland in May and reappearing two months later in a cache in Twickenham, some 453.1 miles away! After email correspondence with various cachers it turns out that a muggle picked Pat up when she visited the cache that he was resting in with a caching friend. She has now registered with GC.com and dropped Pat into this cache, from where it was retrieved by cacher Mart9012. As a result of this, Pat has now travelled 853.3 miles, putting him into the lead of the UK-only section of the race.

In other news, a cacher has reported Ellisha Says Geocoins Only to be containing no trackables. Unfortunately ITCHYthirdEYE's SPANK, the Monkey TB should be present in this cache...

Update! A missed log

American cacher enduroryda retrieved JohnnyBGoode's You Want Fries With That? TB from his own Sympathy From The Devil cache today.

This equates to an additional 409.2 miles added to You want fries with that?'s milage, enough to leapfrog it into 4th place overall.
