Are you a waffler or the strong silent type?
The Bolas Heathens replied to Foinavon's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
We always make a lot of effort with our cache pages and include details of anything interesting about the location and usually some photos. We hope people do read them and it adds to their experience of the cache but if they don't we will not lose sleep over it either. I usually tend to waffle a bit in the first draft and then refine it to the minimum I want without leaving anything I want to say out before it's published. -
Here's our cachemobiles:

From our event this morning...there were a few other Jeep's that were camera shy floating around the room too .

Sharing answers to puzzle caches
The Bolas Heathens replied to Delta68's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
If it's the last logs on one of your own caches then I think the two cachers are related in some way. I'm not sure of the connection but they always go caching together. -
HELP PLEASE CANT GET PQ INTO CACHMATE
The Bolas Heathens replied to CULLY CLOMPERS's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
Just copy your GPX file to the PDA and then in Cachemate, click the icon at the foot of the screen which looks like a page and some red arrows pointing at it, select the GPX file and bingo! -
Definitely!

Just set my first ever cache!
The Bolas Heathens replied to tonibunny's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
LOL - if it's where I think it is then Elis may well get there first as it's nearer him than us. I *might* just have the cachemobile at the ready though -

Congratulations on your first hide. We're already looking forward to the chance to go out and find it . -
No logs emails for us since last night and the server problems either. We host our own mail so I know that's not the problem.

Not sure if this happened during the downtime last night, but we can no longer edit our trackables as the option to do it seems to have vanished.

Absolutely

For any Safari users out there, Pithelmet does an excellent job of removing all banner ads from webpages too

It does - I tried it earlier on

I'm pretty sure Jeremy mentioned in an interview with the Podcacher podcast that the send to GPS garmin plug-in does not currently work with Mac OS X.

Just tried it Safari 3 on XP and it's spot on - does not crash and displays the image correctly.

I use Safari all the time on my Mac (don't like Firefox as it's too slow and just does not look right) so tried it on Windows. Looks to be good apart from the GPX download from a cache page seems to be broken and ends up trying ot download the underlying .aspx page that generates the GPX file. Safari 2 passes the Acid 2 test on my Mac with no problems at all. Just off to try it with Safari 3...

Caches for adoption - Staffordshire/Shropshire Area
The Bolas Heathens replied to MarcB's topic in United Kingdom and Ireland
We're more than happy to take any of the ones in Shropshire or West Staffs. Your one near Alton is abit far away for us but the rest we'd be more than happy to help out with. -
It's on all cache pages, just below the cache name at the top of the page. It's the same on all browsers.

It's in big letters at the top right of any cache page

We've had to take a cache with us when caching in Oxfordshire as we were chased by a herd of cows and there was no way we were going back into the field to put the cache back. We PAF'd to the cache owner and agreed to leave it at one of his other caches a couple of miles away. The cache was then re-sited away from the cows a day or so later .
