last weekend we went to Devon for a long weekend, stopping on Beverley Park (just for a change). The main reason for the trip was so that I could run in the annual Torbay 10k road race as a bit of a warm up for the forthcoming Great North Run in September. But hey, there […]

Yesterday we set out on ge0-cycle day with Hanbury Hall as our final destination. After a late and shaky start, we found our first cache GC1ATZV at 11.25am. 27 caches later (including 3 DNF’s) at just after 5pm – we arrived at Hanbury Hall. It was just closing! Oh well, not to worry, we have […]
After a momentous “First to Find” cache today – our first ever, we rounded the day off with a 4 cache “drive by” cache and dash series by The Cuthies & Max. “Max’s Spooky Spider Hunt”, is a cleverly thought out little series and a couple of the caches are particularly good. Great fun and […]
Today we managed our first ever “first to find” GC2CQ59. I was pottering around the house (no work at this time of year) and got an email saying a fairly local cache had just been published and I thought to myself….middle of the day…most self respecting Geocachers will be at work…..this is the opportunity I’ve […]
The first ever cache we tried to find was West Heath Park GC223TH, unfortunately, it was also our first failure. Some time later we made a second visit and tried again, this time with more experience and a lot more idea of the sort of things we should be looking out for. After a good […]
Yesterday we went to our first big event since being introduced to Geocaching a few weeks ago. What I say is, why wasn’t this sort of thing around when my kids were little?? Technology is to blame of course, too slow to get going! What a fantastic day we had and what a great way […]
Well, yesterday was a very unsuccessful day for me I’m afraid. I went out with the intention of placing a total of 7 caches and only managed one in the end and that was only a micro – Doh! The other 6 caches were meant to be a series with 5 being small or micro […]
A large amount of Bullocks (no comments please) appeared to be telling us that we should rethink and find another route. After careful consideration…..we did.
Well we made our hundredth find last night after just under 7 weeks caching, not too bad. The expedition was carefully planned to make sure that our momentous find was in a quiet and secluded area (we knew the cache well as we had failed to find it once before when it had been muggled […]
We went out on a mission yesterday, and failed miserably. I needed to go to a small village called Long Crendon in Oxfordshire to collect something and the idea was to work our way back via the Cotswolds and attempt to reach our 00th cache in the process. We only needed 17 to manage it, […]
