How do all - well I thought I'd break my duck on the forums by voicing on this post. I've been caching a little while now - but only occasionally get the chance to get out there.
So far I've only been finding - mainly because I could be moving in a little while (hopefully not too far) and also because I'm still learning from the clever caches people are hiding locally (around Dorking, Surrey) all the time.
As long as you keep to the guidelines about swapping and replacing caches where you found them, you are in a way helping to maintain existing caches.
What has amazed me is the increase in interest in this hobby/sport in the last few years - I first heard about it in 2002/03 when there were just a small number of caches in my local area. Looking at the number that are going up every week, I don't think we are in danger or running out or reaching saturation soon!
Thanks to all of you who do place caches - it makes a great reason to go out and find new places.
