Hey! That's my cache... think it may have even been my first hide and it's proving to be quite fun to watch the logs on the cache page! It's also my favorite cache of the ones I have out as it's a different type of container from most of the ones in the area. Not going to give away what it is but it can be a bit of a needle in a haystack search for the cache! I had to spend the best part of an hour looking for it once after a stretch of DNF's on it - someone had put it back in a slightly different place to where I had originally hidden it and I just couldn't find it! Reminds me... must go take a peek on my way home from work and make sure that it is actually still there...

Once of the many challenges I have set myself for the next year of Geocaching is the Alphanumeric challenge. In order to complete this I need to find caches by usernames beginning with certain letters and numbers. Anyone know if there is a way to do a wild-card search whereby I enter only 1 letter/digit?

GC1F4NV - Chiltern Hundred Bonus While not exactly a 5/5 cache this one is listed as a 5/5 for a reason... The coordinates for this are given to you by entering numbers onto a webpage set up by the cache owner. In order to get all the numbers you have to have visited at least 85 of his 109 caches. Not exactly challenging but as I completed 100 of the caches in one day (on a 25 mile walk) it's one of the 5/5 caches that I can actually be proud to say I completed!
