Though this is first in the series, it is the sixth one I have found. I will be back for the last another time! It was quite difficult to spot the colour here, I needed a map to help me out. TFTC!
Visiting Central London today, so why not grabbing some nice caches on the way...
This was one of those I actually had on my list for quite a long time..
Thank you for showing me this interesting place! TFTC!

If it is still early morning and pitch dark it is nicer and easier to go for a virtual find than just lay sleepless in your hotel. So I followed the route to the Red Rainbow Cache and was happy I could make out the solution well enough to get a proper feedback.
I certainly would have liked to meet the person all this cache is about. He must have been very special if you believe what they tell.
Certainly this Virtual is a very good idea.
Thanks from SEUL

It's taken 3 years, but I finally managed to nab this one....
On my last visit to London 3 years ago, I had all the info and permission to log, however I forgot to take the required photo, so I couldn't log my find.
This time I around no mistake was made, and with permission once again received, all is good.
Thanks rodz, glad to cross this one off as it's be haunting me all this time.
Fav point (and photo) added for another interesting area.....and greetings from Australia.

Monday and Tuesday was planed our company meeting to London, so I visited this beautiful city again after 15 years.
I fly to London Sunday afternoon, and used this time for walking through the city.
I started at Kensington, continue around Hyde Park to Buckingham Palace, then to Westminster, Trafalgar square, and tried to continue to Tower. This plan was to challenging and after 20 km I was not able to fulfill my dream . Around my way I tried to found all caches around, however I was not fully successful.
Monday and Tuesday - despite the all days meetings, I found the time for finding some caches also.
When I prepared for this trip, I, of course, checked the caches situation .
It was unbelievable - to see so many unusual caches types .
All together I found during this 3 days 33 caches - 1-multi, 2-webcams, 3-Earth, 10-virtual, 17-tradi.
Thanks to all owners for their caches and for nice experience with geo-London .
Rainbow series was one of my main goals for this London trip.
To found answers and realize asked photo was for this one the most difficult series point for me,
but I was successful at the end and I am happy to visit this interesting place.
Thanks for all series.

Found this one on my yearly London Trip together with Koorbresi. Thanx for the Cache!
As for the other caches in this series I've done so far a positive response was received by return mail.
The last few days have been really warm but today it's a bit more chilly.
Thanks for showing me this place.

Ich konnte dem Geheimnis der Farbe "rot" auf die Spur kommen.
Hier hin kommt man sonst wohl nicht!
Danke fürs Herlocken.
I was able to discover the secret of the color "red" on the track.
Here comes towards you otherwise probably not!
Thanks for pointing.

We had picked out a number of caches to find during our four day stay in London. This was one of them.
Thanks for showing us all these wonderful places. Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to find them all. Maybe next time.

I was visiting London today on a trip where I planned to collect my 8000th cache and several special, rare (and old) caches too. The London Rainbow series was a high priority on my list and this was the third of the 7 colours for me today. I took a (non-spoiler) photo of Geo Teddy at GZ who acts as my photographic stand-in on occasions like this. Back home, I sent the info to the CO and received a confirmation e-mail by return. TFTVC.
Found on a long Saturday of visiting London and doing a bit of caching along the way.
Thanks for the cache!

My last cache of my visit to London today...gave me the most grief...but got there in the end.
This cache was close to our Hotel, so it has been a must to find this one. Very interesting and nice area to live.

Found this with fitzy_1965 and AwesomeL during our European holidays...
Last day of our holiday. Spent it walking around London. This was a lovely Virtual to do - the first one of the series I have done. fitzy_1965 gathered the info and sent it to the CO, and permission to log has been received.
Greetings from Australia !

8234 + 981 = 9215. Found with ACBC66 and AwesomeL during our European holiday…
The last day of our trip - flying out of Heathrow tonight. Dropped the bags at Paddington for the day and visited the last things on our list. This cache being one of them after we went to the Twinnings Shop in the Strand. We followed the trail and came up with the info. Sent it off and got the Tick !
So now I have done 5 of the 7 Rainbow caches : Indigo in Dec 2009, Blue Green and Orange in Dec 2010, and now Red in May 2014. Hopefully Violet and Yellow soon ??
Thanks rodz ! A Favourite Point from Me !

This one was easy to solve, nevertheless, we have again learned something. TFTC
This one had me looking for a but until I spotted where I should be.
Noticed the dates he worked here don't match when he lived here. Strange.
Thanks for keeping this old cache going.

It's just another lovely virtual cache tour through London by rodz. Thanks so much for showing us this area. With littlemissbrainy777. TFTC!
On our fourth day in Great Britain we walked through London visiting various caches. This cache was more or less on the way to the other catastrophe caches so we paid it a visit. The needed information was found rather quick and this time we got the right email address by the first try. A picture was taken and soon after that we were on our way again.
Thanks for leading us to this interesting place say

Als Battledwarf sah, dass es eine Rainbow Serie in London gibt, war sofort klar, dass diese auf unsere Liste kam. Heute wollten wir die gestern angefangene Serie beenden. Hier klappte alles auf Anhieb und wir konnten gleich weiterziehen.

A strange, beautiful place, you lead us to. Never would have seen that, if not by caching. Neither the starting spot, nor the final would have been discovered by a common tourist. That's the reason, why we do geocaching! This was our first virtual, and hopefully, we could manage to do the other rainbow caches in July.
The missing photo is on my camera, so I can't get it off the card before Tuesday. I hope that doesn't matter.
Danke sagt der Rinser. Thanks from Rinser.

Hi, on our easter trip to London we saw the nice City and a lot of caches. We were happy to do a lot of old virtuel caches and we had much fun to discover the interesting places. Thank you and greetings from Germay Rheinflut1995
This turned out to be a nice little wander on a Sunday afternoon. The place was empty when I arrived and found the information quite quickly! I remember him from one of my favourite shows!
Found while on a visit to the UK.

I wasn't sure what I was looking at, and the posted coords placed me inside a building, 40m away from the road. Since access to the side streets was not possible, I decided to go to the point marked on the map (ignoring the fact that the GPSr told me I wasn't actually there), and followed walking instructions. It took me 100 m to find out that the red thing wasn't the red thing I'd been walking towards. . Found the Dr without any problems then. TFTC and G'Day from Australia
This is a repost of my log from May 24 that was deleted due to not having the photo requirement, which it now does.
4 down, 3 to go! This was my favourite one so far, I love secret little entrances and alleyways you would normally pass by. They seem to be everywhere in this part of the city. Thanks rodz, top cache.

Visiting from Australia for a couple of weeks. Continuing on my long walk around London. Another very interesting spot! Found the information and confirmed by email. Thanks for the cache.
Found this one whilst on our stroll around the local area near our hotel. Thanks for the great history lesson.
There was work going on in front of one of the entrances to this cache when I was there which made life a little difficult. Found eventually.
Not sure about the red bit but found it after wandering around for a while Thanks
Found this one on the way to a local event Bash in the cache, interesting spot I thought he was only a character in a well known sitcom.

Hit this about 2 p.m on Saturday. Very busy as there was an open day in the good doctor's house. Number 4 today but the first of this series - I'll have to save the others for another day. TFTC
#448. My last cache of the day and visit to London. Lot's of history to be found. E-mail sent. Thanks for the cache.
Found by Mary & David from Australia at 1425. We had visited this place about 10 years earlier, and couldn't have guessed then that we'd be back here today with GPSr in hand. Several tourists came by to look while we were jotting the details down. Our thanks to McDehack for inviting us back to an interesting corner of London.
3rd of the day! Easy find and another great place you would never normally visit! Email on the way!
As we approached this neighborhood, without first having read the cache description, SWMBO pointed out a series of signs and suggested we visit there first. But no, I led her instead to the posted coords, and there we dug out the cache sheets and read.. and then she said, "I told you so!".
Duh..! Email sent! More colours to go..
Cheers

This was my 20th out of 53 caches of my overnight London marathon. I was here at 1 am, and took a rest on the bench and appreciated the cat. The pub nearby didn't serve any food... Thanks!
More chasing an arrow that kept changing it's mind. Finally, found the correct location and the information, beautiful area. Found with FullCT.
