Star Trek – Dead Drop – Curbridge, Oxfordshire, UK
Game: Star Trek
Type: Possible Dead Drop
Location: Curbridge, Oxfordshire, UK
Date: dropped before April 27
Status: Incomplete Concluded – Game Finished
Geoff Greatbatch has continued email discussions about his picture of a field in Curbridge. All of the emails have mentioned that it was a shame that no one visited the site during the day and had lunch in the pub. And he has mentioned his friend Colin from the pub twice as well. It is possible that there is more information in a pub in Curbridge for someone to retrieve.
I hope you did make it again the next day and perhaps had a nice lunch in the pub. We have managed to persuade the landlady not to go all gastro pub with nutmeg shrimps and such, the hot pot is very good but best to steer clear of the ‘meat’ pie. It would have been wonderful had you met my friend Colin and put paid to his theories about the markings.
You think they look ‘alien’? Well I prefer your theory to Colin’s ie Ancient Druid spirits and/or Polish immigrants.
There is no mention of the pub name, although a google search for Curbridge Oxfordshire pub gives us the The Lord Kitchener Pub which is not too far from the crash site.
It’s impossible to say if anything is to be found at The Lord Kitchener Pub, or indeed any pub in the Curbridge area. However, it was thought that the crash site wouldn’t be real either and looked how that turned out. So if you’re in the area and don’t mind doing a little bit of investigating, start visiting pubs in Curbridge and asking for Colin.

Update: Not sure if there was anything else to be found in the village. Since the game is now over, we may never know unless they hold a PM chat and we get to ask them about it.
