Hi All, Just to let you know that frapper has now changed domain name and you can reach our mini-project directly from www.frappr.com/geocachers (note the spelling of 'frappr' with no 'e' in it... BTW - our entries to-date are mainly UK-centric. A big thank you to everyone that has revealed themselves, but I was wondering, does anyone have any contacts abroad, such as Europe or US to spread the word and increase the size of our presence?

John, I think editing the posts is down to me, since I set up this particular Frapper and so I'm classed as the owner. I'll be happy to make any changes to shoutouts for anyone who so desires... Just P.M. me at contact.eastonwolfs@virgin.net Regarding locations & accuracy of positioning, I think this is down to 'pot luck' depending upon what the Google maps software knows about (Fraper uses google maps, of course). It can't be too bad if it knows of a village like Adlington where we are! I am also aware of some intermittent problems where Frapper sometimes struggles to let people add themselves. I think the only thing to do here is to keep trying... Regards, Wilf (Eastonwolfs)

Enjoy bike riding to find geocachers?...Or just a good bike ride?...Do you own a bicycle?... Have you heard about Frapper?... Frapper is a map where people can add groups of people who are a member of a club or people who own something...you can add your name to one of them.e.g if there is an ipod owners map and you won an ipod, you can add your name. I have started up a bicyle owners map(i got the spelling wrong on the map, it's called bikecycle owners!), if you own a bicyle, go to the following link, http://www.risingconcepts.com/frapper/bikecycleowners and add your name! eastonwolfs

Hi All, We are de-lurking just to mention an excellent map utility that we recently discovered: Frapper allows groups (such as geocaching) to set up maps showing the locations of all of its members. Thought this might be useful, since we all know where our geocaches are, but do we know where *we* are?!! To get the ball rolling we have set up a frapper group called Geocachers. It can be found from the link at http://www.risingconcepts.com/frapper/geocachers. Apologies if this is not immediately clear, if you follow the link and look at some of the existing groups I am sure you will see what it's all about. Let's see how many UK cachers we can get up there!!! Eastonwolfs

Hi Folks, Thanks for such a great welcome, and a particular thank-you to Joan for introducing me!!! I'm Wilf, and as you have gathered, am joined by my son Tom and dog Sam. Unfortunately, various comittments mean this will be a weekend-only hobby for us... I've been living in Adlington Lancs for the past 18 months or so, but it's only really during the last 6 months that I've started to find out just how fortunate we are to be near Rivington and Winter Hill This has lead to the purchase of a GPSr which, in turn, has lead to the discovery of Geocaching It's wonderful to get away from a 'desk job' and appreciate our great countryside! Well, thanks once again to all of you for your welcome, and I hope we'll have a chance to meet in the future. Regards, Wilf (Eastonwolfs)
