Thank you all for your warm welcome, highly amusing excuses and the link to the leaflet (think I might use the business card though)
We have only been caching for about two months - picked a bad time with the weather!
On our first caching trip we were casually walking down the road, Husband had GPS in hand, when we came across some young kids stating that we shouldn't go any further down the path as they had just seen a large cat and then when they saw the GPS they thought we were police officers. (I hasten to add that we were dressed quite casually, Husband had his shorts on lol!) I have to admit that we played along with this to avoid any questions I just wish that I had told them we were hunting the cat down!
Saying that there has been some big cat sightings in Telford recently so there was every chance they were telling the truth!
