  1. Wowser!! Where on earth do you cache something like that?? I had some luck in central London today and found a box big enough for the TB to go in to - hooray! Also noticed someone has picked it up since (double hooray!) as 4 other TBs in that cache had gone missing! There's a series from Hampton Court towards Kingston, and several along the river towards Walton. Sounds like climbing is involved for some of them!! Mr Beat and I are going to go caching along the river for my birthday in Feb whilst geokid is at nursery It seems a bit hit and miss with what I find and what I don't - figured out my first puzzle cache and managed to find the teeny nano cache by plugging the co ordinates into Google Maps but couldn't find the cigar sized cache by the railings of Wesley's Chapel Next time though!

  3. This is what I say to my geokid too ? he gets an initial rush of excitement and interest which waned quickly after 20+ minutes digging in bushes today! In our first cache we found a car left by Land Rover during a mountaineering event in the Lakes, he tells people that it came from a "treasure box!" Thanks all for the advice and thoughts on this, I am struggling to find anything larger than micro round here (which is a pain as I have A fairly big TB to drop from the Lakes) which probably doesn't help. Mr Beat found a nano cache whilst we were away so might need his keen eyes! IceColdUK, we're near Hampton Court Palace - suggestions greatly received! ?
  4. Hi there! I officially started geocaching on holiday in the Lake District (mountains, countryside, lakes) along with my husband. We soon noticed a bit of a pattern to cache hiding places - look for fallen trees and piles of rocks that didn't seem to belong there! Since coming back home to the South West London/Surrey borders we've not had as much luck. The areas we've looked round have been much more built up and we've yet to find a cache near us (doesn't help that our 3.5 year old geokid isn't quite as interested as we are so hunts are interspersed with trying to stop the kid from running off elsewhere!) Any tips for caching in suburbia?
