Can someone help with the TP numbers for the following YOSM trigs, they have duplicate names and I am not sure which ones are the YOSMs:
Courtstone YOSM 135
Fir Hill YOSM 114
Garn Fawr YOSM 182
Grange Hil YOSM 091
Holyhead YOSM 199
Kings Seat YOSM 256
Courtstone YOSM 135 = TP0032
Fir Hill YOSM 114 = TP3177
Garn Fawr YOSM 182 = TP0718
Grange Hil YOSM 091 = TP3437
Holyhead YOSM 199 = TP0519
Kings Seat YOSM 256 = TP4225

by the way "YOSM" is latin for yogurt

Hi ginger4x4, if you go to the dashborad section of the mygarmin website and plug in your GPS then it will tell you if there is an update available for your GPS.
I know latest beta version for the 550 is 2.81 - keehotee and I have been running it on our 550's for a week or so without any problems and it has some really nice touches so can recommend it.
Thanks Mouse
I have checked and no updates are needed but would be interested in the Beta 2.81 where can I find
thanks

Hello
Beta is available here
And a thread discussing it is over on the main GPS and tech forum here
As *mouse* has already said, we've been running with these for a while and have not found any glitches yet.
Good Luck
Thanks to you both...

Hi all
Can this update "Colorado 400t, Ver. 3.20, as of Nov 25, 2009" on the Garmin web site be used to update a 550t unit.
The 550t is showing at the moment v2.30.
thanks

thanks

Maybe I haven’t explained myself properly, I missed out on collecting these free geocoins from Garmin though shops like Blacks and Millets.
I'm not sure I'm following this correctly.
According to your profile you've had one of these since August 2008???
Dear keehotee
I apologise your having problems keep up.... I missed out on collecting ALL of the Garmin Geocoins and only though a family member managed to get 1 x Garmin Big Ben this has since disappeared out in the field although a member going by the name of "Disney Nuts" has registered it has being in his procession and after many many emails to him with no answers can only assume his kicked it even though his profile shows he is still caching.
I hope yet again that this has cleared up your or any confusion....
Im starting to regret posting this straight forward request via this forum.

No, there isn't. What do you want find out exactly?
MrsB
A catelogue of geocoins availbe for purchase..
ginger

hi
is there such a thing as a "geocoin" directory (availible to purchase)
ginger

From your original post it sounds as if you want all the coins not one.... you also wanted to buy one. Not really in the spirit of the game
Maybe I haven’t explained myself properly, I missed out on collecting these free geocoins from Garmin though shops like Blacks and Millets.
My request is that there maybe members out there that may have some/all of these coins they may want to part with or no longer want, to tempt members to look in there drawers or the bottom of they cupboards’ I’ve offered to or Im willing to buy them from folks.
Or even meet them at a meet and exchange them for a pint or two.
Me wanting to buy them of folks Im not quite sure why this is not "in the spirit of the game" at least Im trying to come by these coins honestly, as we know there are quite a few that just disappear
I hope that’s cleared that up

Hi
Im after if at all possible the Garmin geocoins, I know im a bit late but there must be some out there that are not wanted of maybe for sale if so please get in touch
ginger
You mean these?
1. Collect a Geocoin from any Blacks or Millets store
2. Go to garminuk.geocaching.com and register your Geocoin’s unique ID number. You will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win one of the great adventure prizes.
3. Choose a cache from the website in a location that interests you
4. Hunt down the cache by entering the location coordinates (or ‘waypoints’) into your Garmin GPS handheld, and leave your Geocoin inside it
5. Return to the website and log your Geocoin’s new location
6. Seek out other people’s coins to keep the game going and follow the trail online
Yes indeed I do "mean".. unfortunatly I didnt do No: 1
hence the request for those who may have but not used/or placed in a cache.ginger

Please forgive my mate Dakar4x4 he doesn't get out much and when he does its usually under the strictest of supervision due to his mishap and alleged run in with the local vet although I understand the goat and the authorities didn't want to press charges nor the hassle of the publicity.
Bless him

And I thought you'd finally mastered the ways of the Memory Maps grasshopper?

Congrats to Dakar
OK, so as a fairly new cacher, lets give ginger4x4 the benefit of the doubt for posting this 'Congrats', because we know what is going to happen; mtn-man or Miss Jenn is going to come along soon and move it to the congrats thread, so lets just accept it.
Edited at 04.47 UK time...see told you so
Would have been curtious to have been told that my posting was going to be moved....?

Hi everyone
I have recently asked / submitted a cache for publication called "bl@@dy hell ginge" and this has been turn down because the reviewer as deemed it "vulgar" under our rules....
"You agree not to: 4(a) Upload, post or otherwise transmit any content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, slanderous, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, embarrassing, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable to any other person or entity"
However
There are over 130 caches which have been published with "bloody" in the title and one called "Where the Bloody Hell is Monty ?!?!?!" GC3J9V8 ?
Although I am in favor of rules there does appear to be huge discrepancies and inconsistencies accruing and wondered what everyone else thinks.
regards all
