HMMMM. I would say that the FTF on the 2nd log was the rude cacher. Family caching is about keeping the kids amused so there is nothing amusing for your kids in doing a walk on which they would have been getting to find caches they have already done. Not sure what age the kids are but i can imagine what would have been said about them if they had run ahead of the group and were standing with the box in hand when everyone else got the GZ. I cache with my Dad, sometimes mum will tag along. Mum and I got FTF on 2 caches late last summer, dad and i were passing a few weeks ago after getting some others and decided to stop and let dad get the 2 we had previously found. There is nothing more frustrating than standing about watching someone trying to find a cache when you can see it cos you know where it is. If it were me i would not have wanted to do the long walk either. They were live caches you did nothing wrong. You obviously don't live near a FTF hound though as if you did they would all have been found before you even got up that morning It is a game and everyone plays it differently, i like to cache with other people but i can't imagine 20 of us looking for 1 cache is any fun! Happy Caching Ljay

Firstly well done to myGeocoin.de for getting on to this and fixing so quickly, next time i have money for coins i will check out your site. Further to my posts over the weekend i contacted a friend who works for an international company who deals with VAT refunds for international travellers, since she is in Ireland she gave me the e-mail for her counterpart in the german office (cos the Company that Avroair pm'd me was german). His reply was So my reading of what he has said and obvoiusly what Sepp and Berta have been told by their advisors is "non-EU address NO VAT" With regards to getting the money back, it will be very difficult to get it back from the on-line shop as they will already submitted their tax returns. but maybe Sepp and Berta could advise how to reclaime the VAT via the german VAT office. Good Luck, i am now going to check out if i have been paying sales tax on my purchases for the US oin shops... Ljay

Well Done Mandy, I forgot about this until i saw the highlights coming on after the news. Was very disappointed that they didn't show any of your leg. Look forward to seeing pictures. Ljay

Avroair, I have sent an e-mail to a contact who deals with tax free shopping and i will get back to you once i get a reply. Ljay

Hi Guys, Not sure what country you are dealing in but i can give a view from the Irish Tax Office. For a little history until 8 months ago i was working in Tourism in Dublin and had the pleasure of meeting many very nice American Tourists. You are quite correct in stating that you are exempt from paying the tax however it is your responsibility to reclaim the tax and not the retailers... Many of the larger high street retailers in the city's can take it off at source however if they don't you need to fill in a form and submit your reciepts at the airport when leaving. My understanding is that this is the arrangement in all EU Countries. Let me know what country the retailers in question are in and i will check with the local tax offices and see if i can get the forms for you. Sorry to be the bearer of extra paperwork.. Ljay

I want some kitties... Love the designs, all of them. The kitties i would buy, the cache attributes are nice but are not what i like to collect personally but i am sure there are plenty out there who do collect them. I've PM'd you with a couple of ideas that could make this happen... Well Done Ljay

I can't imagine that it is... If mine ever arrive i will trade one with you. I know the postman has them... I'm sure he is withholding my post as he has done this before...

I just did the sums and since i got paid on the 28th i have spent $160 on coins. Nobody be offended if i now avoid you all for a month as i seriously can't afford to be here... I'm now waiting on Geofairies, A Thor Hammer (Thanks Niomi), a virtual cache coin and pin, a mother nature coin, a Viking Runestone coin, and 25 Geoscooters. Hello Craig, Hello Rod... My name is Naomi, and I'm an addict. Naomi Hi My name is Laura and i am a Geocoin Addict.

Well Done, Niomi.

Well on monday i got a package from Kath At Uk Geocachers with a british bulldog and a trakabulldog for one of my missions and today i got a package from the Atwells containing my Geolicious pack. Still waiting on my Personal Geoscooters and e-bay purchases. Looking forward to everything else arriving. Ljay

There was no 2 tone came up, managed to get the antique nickel tho. Have geofairy and Ljay Geoscooters to trade for a 2 tone????

I would subscribe to this. Would need pricing tho especially since i have international shipping. I also like the idea of a members only finish. Artistically however, my stick men are bad so we will not go there. I'll keep my eye on this. So glad to hear you and tank are doing better. Thanks Laura

The Geolicious made it to the UK today but i am still waiting for the scooters. I hate waiting!!! maybe tomorrow.

hmmm This made me go buy chocolate today!!! Some for me and some for my envelope. Not sure if the envelope chocolate will last until Monday but we will try...

lol i'm going to hell cos i find this hillarious... worst i've ever found is good xcuses to CITO.

5 Sponges for a pound for a regular cacher 5 spongles for 2 pounds for the reviewer. (Please note people will always pay more to throw stuff at TPTB even if they are volunters)

Well for a bad picture it looks really nice... I'm off to check my bank account to see if i have any money left for coins.

wow... I want... I want... Think i may have blown my budget this month, especially with the rune stone coin i bought yesterday... Will keep an eye on the web site and if i get one it will be my last for this month... Thanks for an amazing coin Niomi. Edit to Ask: What is the coin above the 2 tone??

Find something you like be it on Flea Bay or through one of the many websites. I use a coin that was given to me as a gift by the cacher that introduced me. Welcome to the addiction!!!

none in Scotland to Activate yet. Maybe tomorrow... Getting excited.

Oh, More Chocolate, so soon after easter You can definatly count me in for this one... E-mail Sent, coin in mailer, just need to get choc now. Tx L

you could e-mail them and ask them to regrab it once you have logged it in to the cache. As to how, they have just grabbed it from your inventory.
