  1. We had real concerns about attending an Event, but then we were responsible for the 'First South Wales Event'.

     

    Thankfully, it was a great success, this was not down to us, but because of all the wonderful cachers who came. :):(

     

    Things you can be sure of at a SW Event:

     

    FUN :D

     

    Weather, we don't guarantee, what sort of weather but . . . . .

     

    A variety of great caches, placed in fantastic countryside.

     

    So come along and see if our fellow cachers really are as wonderful as we think they are. :D;);)

  2. Where will they dock:-

     

    Apro Harbor looks as if it might be the right area to start searching for nearby caches.

     

    Found a couple of links:

    Hope this helps.

    Further search reveals Guam Cachers Home page

    Plus link to ALL Guam Cachers who should be able to provide some advice

  3. Are we good or what :rolleyes::rolleyes:

     

    Thought it might be easier to change the status of our UK caches sooner rather than later

     

    Spent an hour last night updating some of our caches, but as progress slowed to a snail's pace, gave up and went to bed.

     

    Back from a wonderful day out in South Wales, decided to tackle the remaining caches.

     

    Total time taken about 2½ hours, but now more than half of the South Wales caches belong to us (84 out of 146)

  4. From our earliest days in geocaching, we have been lucky to enjoy the help, patience, sound sense and good humour of Lacky and Ecky. You will be missed.

    We doubt that we can fully appreciate the volume of work which you have got through, but have on occasions questioned whether you ever sleep. There certainly can't have been much time for your own enjoyment, so we hope you will now start to make up for this.

    Thanks for all you have done for geocaching in the UK and especially for the help you have given to us. If you are in South Wales, let us know. The least we can do is buy you a drink.

    Good luck for the future.

  5. For peeps having problems, I've taken the liberty of downloading the script file (any probs Edgemaster, let me know and I shall remove it, its your work!) and uploading it to my ISP space. The file can be found here.

    Have just restarted our Computer and we have Greasemonkey :)

     

    Tried the above file but alas still no map :ph34r::)

     

    Do hope someone can get the map up and working for us soon ;)

  6. :ph34r: Same probs here.

     

    Are you all on a Virgin connection?

    I was getting "server not found" errors last night, so Edgey kindly gave me a mirror address which worked, though I still get the errors, but at least the box appears.

     

    I'd imagine when Virgin have fixed all their issues it'll work fine.

     

    We are not on a Virgin connection.

     

    It is slightly reassuring that others are experiencing similar concerns.

     

    Hope somebody can help SOON :(

  7. The rules with regard to this appear to have changed though - the original post seemed to imply that it was the first to find all 6 that got the prize but more recent posts suggest that it's now a "first out of the hat" for each weekend - or am I wrong?

    If you arrive at 9am, the time available is quite comfortable to complete all 6. we only completed 5 but we only started at 10:30am and stopped at 4pm. All the tokens had been removed from all the caches by then too.

     

    To quote from The Cache Page ~

    On the weekend of 1-2 March and again on 8-9 March, whoever is first to collect a set of 6 individual tokens and hand them in to Headquarters (the Crickhowell Resource & Information Centre – hence CRiC - at SO2180018500) will receive a prize of a Gift Token for the UKGeocachers shop.

     

    Then a note posted 29th February 2008 mentions ~

    - Prizes. The Prize of a £15 voucher from the Geocache Shop for the FTF will be awarded and notified on this site early next week – after the dust has settled. In the event of more than one entry with the same number of tokens, the winner will be drawn at random.

    - Next Weekend. Remember there will be another set of tokens distributed for next weekend (8/9 Mar) and another prize for FTF too!

     

    So 2 Prizes will be awarded one for each weekend, so hopefully sniffadogz will get his HO HUM reward! :D:laughing:
