  1. Hahaha! Datsundudes comes out as "studded anus" Amazingly it gives 315 three word anagrams! -Eddie
  2. Wow! That makes my total of five for January look a little pathetic This month I hope to do as many as ten!! ...Gotta start gently
  3. Hehehe..,maybe the difficulty level of that cache should be reviewed Reaching a cache whilst under fire is asking too much methinks -Eddie
  4. Haha Fantastic...I've never seen that before on multimap!!
  5. You can buy special plastic primers for car bumpers and trim which will eych into a lot of plastics and provide an excellent key for pretty much any paint. You can get it at Halfords or in some motor accessory shops. You can also get paint for recolouring vinyl upholstery (Vinylkote) which might be good too. I once did all the interior in a car with it and it never wore off...very good stuff. It would still pay to get the mould release agents off and key the surface well even if using these kids of paint but once done it would be pretty durable. -Eddie
  6. Me too I've been to Finland twice and both times I visited Tampere ... but also before discovering geocaching! I was there for over a week in the summer last time I went. If only I'd known. I travelled all over the place last time. The first time I went I bought a very old Datsun (we call it Moomin of course!) and drove home through Sweden and Norway in it. A bit of caching would have been great on that trip! Still, it gives me even more reason to go back there again.
  7. 700! Good grief... imaging how far you've walked Only another 698 and I'll be there too. Amazing work..well done!
  8. I bought a yellow Etrex today (my first day of caching!) and used it to find me second cache, after doing the first with just an OS map I found it took a little while to settle down after first turning it on but seemed to do the job well. We found the location of the cache with nothing but the GPS from about 30 miles away. In the car it worked very well and I found it gave a direction pretty accurately if you were walking briskly but got a little hit and miss if stationary. There was tree cover at the site and it's accuracy went down to about 25ft but it still managed to take us there by walking round and round untill we homed in on the spot Overall it seems to be good value for the money and I'm sure we'll be sticking with it for a while yet. Some maps would be good but I can't see me carrying my laptop around the countryside so I think I'm going to have to purchase some smaller
