  1. penalised ? we are talking about one smiley here, why such a big deal over it ?
  2. A quick search shows how level the playing field is: GC1DYNV GC1G81H GC1AWWC GC1DKE3 GC1G1T2
  3. We now have a mod/toys/throwing/pram situation I thought the mods were more accesible than this
  4. You cannot have an event that is primarily for geocaching. By your logic NO event is valid.
  5. The same as the perceived advantages of forcing people to go to a pub/walk up a hill/take part in a flashmob etc. The word forcing is a bit strong, but it does illustrate the point that the situation we have exists because some people believe that they should be able to log an event on their terms. If someone is kind enough to organise an event based on any criteria (walking, climbing, camping frisbeeing) surely everyone has the option of joining in with the event or not, if you dont take part then that is your choice. The advantage of a camping event is that there is so much more time to socialise with other cachers, people get together in a much more relaxed atmosphere than any other type of event. It is great to see the caching kids all playing together, groups of cachers going for trips off site (for caching and non caching activities), to meet all the geodogs and to witness all the help and advice offered by fellow cachers. Strong bonds are forged at these events that are only possible by spending time with people to really get to know them, this I feel cannot happen at most other types of events. To see the most social of events banned (because they are at the moment) due to a few cachers moaning because they cannot get another smiley goes against all common sense.
  6. We will be there, thanks for organizing this one. We will also be getting there early.
  7. I still cannot grasp why the reviewers think a camping event is not open to all. If it is a camping event, anyone can attend by camping, it is not exactly rocket science is it.
  8. Google says it means "Jingle Bells Batman Smells"
  9. Can they impose restrictions in the morning then? I read it as they only ask nicely at the end of the day. In the mornings they are much more surly
  10. Look HERE I liked 'Go to MapQuest and see where we are.'
  11. Grackie does not sound right, I propose we call him Big Bird LETS ALL SING: Sunny Day Sweepin' the clouds away On my way to where the air is sweet Can you tell me how to get, How to get to Sesame Street
  12. I would copy all the files off the card into a folder on your PC ASAP, just in case the card is on its way to complete failure.
  13. Activate them HERE the activation code is VisitUK. This is from the very bottom of THIS page. BTW, which Millets had them, and what type were they?
  14. Now things are moving, I think it would be a good idea if there was a locked thread for announcements. That way Birdie could mail Duckie (see what I did there) the official news and the thread would only rise to the top when there is news about the event. Having it limited to only official news would mean information would be easier to find.
  15. Mrs. B may like to know that Blacks in Cardiff still had 2 when I got my one yesterday.
  16. Sorry to be off topic (but I am helping a noobie). Check out the GFAB event, lots of kids, and camping and stuff, a good way to end the school hols and not too far.
  17. Enough to drive one b@ty, how about the f@ c@ s@ on the m@
  18. My wife works for Orange in Bristol, and they often have people from the North East visiting the offices. They all reckon that the A42/M42/M5 route to Bristol is as quick as going straight down the M1 to the London office. Oh and we are willing to help with the organising.
  19. I once turned my GPS off ....................... ............. and disappeared
  20. I think you need to log out of the forums, then back in again for changes to take effect. Although you do seem to have broken the internet, so it may not work
