  1. There can also be the embarrasment factor. My other half once went to Ireland and took a bag load of stuffed toys with her. The security people put it through an x-ray machine and she had the embarrasment of everyone looking at an outline of her bag with loads of beady eyes and noses and faint bear shapes looking out from the display. Luckily Ireland doesn't have a large black market in bears so there were no really awkward questions to answer. Finding your caches - Losing my marbles.
  2. Might I suggest Scottys Tomb Raider series if you haven't done those yet. I'm sure they would give the necessary chill factor. I'd come along too but unfortunately whatever night it is, I'm busy. Remember to take a stake, garlic and a cross with you. You never know what you might bump into!

  4. "if you visited blackpool youd see why i dont think its all that impossible to find the cache" When I was there last October I had difficulty finding the Grand Hotel! Then again, I'd just had a 5 hour drinking spree in Rumours follwed by The Tower Bar. Finding your caches - Losing my marbles.

  6. Over the last few months I've written to most of the major chains to ask them to include lat/longs for their pubs, restaraunts, bars etc. when they next provide their in house guides/magazines. I've also written to the Good Beer Guide etc. etc. Whether any take any notice or not I've no idea as nobody has bothered to reply. I can't believe none of them already have done this, as the potential market, apart from us gallant geo-cachers must be increasing rapidly. If you have sat-nav in the car and a pub guide with co-ords it will take you right to the door and you probably ignore other pubs on the way. It seems a great way of locking people in to your chain or group. I sometimes visit the trade exhibitions so the next time I'm at a relevant one I'll give 'em a good grilling! Oh and of course, I'll offer all our services to log the locations for them in return for free food and drink! Finding your caches - Losing my marbles.

  8. I too saw the article last year in the computer mag. I'd wanted an excuse to own a gps, not that I had any real need for one, but you know what boys and their toys are like, so it gave me a chance to get one and legitamise the craving. I'd be out finding more caches if I didn't have to work so often at the moment. Finding your caches - Losing my marbles.
