I found a Haiku cache last week. I wrote a one verse Haiku in the log book and then wrote a longer one online. GC19W0F Haiku

I had earmarked a hiding place last week for a new cache, so off we went last night to hide it. We found a great spot and started to remove the dead leaves only to find a rolled up red rucsack. I was given the job of looking inside - so I undid the zip carefully expecting to find a drug stash or something illegal. Inside were 2 pairs of knickers, a bra, 2 headscarves and 2 empty bread bags, very strange! Needless to say I chose a different hiding place for my cache. Has anyone else found something hidden while hiding a new cache?

Tat is what we call it in the uk! Tat = trash, crap, cheap nasty stuff! "Full of old tat!"

I'm still a newbie so not sure if my opinion counts for much! My son now has his own geocaching rucksack and to be honest it's mostly filled with swag that I've bought over the last few weeks. For me and other half it's all about the walk and find but for my 10year old it's about the find and swag! However he is at the age where he's not too disappointed if it's full of rubbish, he just says I don't need anything but leaves something nice anyhow. With my second hide Evil Ivy I told a story and ok, it's only been out there a few days but the FTF didn't even take the FTF badge as they did not have anything suitable to trade. I emailed them to say they were welcome to the badge without a trade and if they couldn't get back to the cache I would post it to them. Not sure how long my cache will remain rubbish free but we can but try.
