  1. That'll do. Actually apis melifera melifera the black european honeybee. Now almost or completely lost to crossbreeding with other subspecies. So a ding to MTH.
  2. Thought someone here might know this. Is the latin name (but commonly used) for a particular breed of domesticated insect.
  3. Not very common nowadays, and mainly in the fringes of Britain - Scotland, Wales & Cornwall. Some say they no longer exist at all.
  4. No, they're all year round. These wake up in spring and mainly sleep in the winter (good idea).
  5. OK, waking up this time of year, what do the initials A.M.M. stand for?
  6. No longer supported and no longer works. I know of no alternative and have bought a new (android) phone.
  7. That's all I've had with mine, and they've been published without question.
  8. I've bitten the bullet and bought an Android phone. I'm using Neongeo and loving it. Similar to geocaching live but so much better.
  9. Slipped over on the way back to the car after placing http://coord.info/GC3M7MA One fracture in my tibia, multiple fractures of fibula. 2 young children and the dog with me and no phone reception. Had to wait for a passer by to head for higher ground and phone for help. Coastguard search and rescue and a paramedic attended and, four hours after my fall, I was hoisted up into a naval helicopter and flown to hospital. 10 weeks off work. At my last fracture clinic appointment I was told to stay off for 4 more weeks, but went back regardless (little choice when you're self employed) Still not healed, but more x-rays in 3 weeks, hopefully they will show a callus.
  10. Sadly it's a temporary fix. Program will stop working permanently on 15th September. See: live.geocaching.com
  11. As a direct consequence of placing http://coord.info/GC3M7MA Slip Crack **** Explanation on the cache description - involved Coastguard search and rescue, paramedic and RNAS rescue helicopter, plus a 12 day stay in hospital.
  12. I use them at work every day as small centrifuge containers. I wouldn't use one as a cache - the lids tend to pop open & the thin strip of plastic holding the lid to the tube is much too fragile.
  13. Some people have email clients that only display plain text correctly. Mine (mutt) is better with plain text, but will display html. I prefer plain text.
  14. Although the trail is a beautiful walk too.
  15. Picked from my favourite list and leaving out series, there are: Waterloo Bridge http://coord.info/GC2H7Q2 X marks the spot http://coord.info/GC2BR3M Three twelfths evil twin http://coord.info/GC31NZ9 Safety's first http://coord.info/GC2XE05 Rusty's revenge http://coord.info/GC2MW8E Pixies http://coord.info/GC2JEF2 Penwith's mountain? http://coord.info/GC2E4CZ Kernow I http://coord.info/GCYP4F Gridlocked (old porthtowan mine) http://coord.info/GC1KTG6 Don't block our cocks (railway) http://coord.info/GC2NW2N Carn marth's colour conundrum http://coord.info/GC12P96 Carn find it 2 http://coord.info/GC184FY Another fallen tree http://coord.info/GC2PYC8 All in no particular order Obviously all of mine as well ;-)
  16. The URL that is hardcoded into the program is now invalid. You need to go into Tools -> Settings and add a mapserver with URL: http://tile.openstreetmap.org/[iNVZ]/[X]/[Y].png and choose WGS84/Spherical for the projection. All should then be back to normal.
  17. But the problem of not being able to download the details of most caches is. This has been a problem for a few months.
