    Geocache nostaligia...

    The mention of sirf chip sets reminds me of the days when logs saying co ords 30ft out or less did not exist and indeed half the fun of many caches was working out just where marcb thought he was compared to you :);) .

     

    :P:D:D .

     

    Hey! It wasn't my fault I had a dodgy GPS... well maybe it was... ;)

    Caches for adoption - Staffordshire/Shropshire Area

    in United Kingdom and Ireland

    [Edit: Kindly adopted by The Bolas Heathens, thanks all]

     

    Due to increasing constraints on my time and (thanks to being stuck in Lancaster) an inabilty to service my caches, I'm sadly putting all 26 of my caches across Shropshire, Staffordshire (and one in Worcestershire) up for adoption. My geocaching has had to be drastically scaled back due to a hectic three years at university.

    As many people who are in the local area will know, my caches have been round for a long time (dating back to November 2002 - coming up to five years :( ) and I would love for someone dedicated to take care of all of them in one big job-lot. This includes the massive Alchemy Quest, The Road to The Wrekin + many others, the majority of which are ammo boxes and cannisters. Please be aware that ideally you've got to Gold on the Alchemy Quest and don't mind replacing a few of the jam packed log books!

    Please contact me if you think you're up for the job (or know someone who is) and I'll get in touch.

    All the best,

    MarcB :(

    Alchemy and all that

    However I am still more than impressed by Jaz666, Moote and Rutson's 10 hours 50 mins time to complete it (although I am informed that World Rally Championship style driving does help somewhat) and am willing to offer, without taking anything away from MarcB brilliant series, advice to any team who wants a crack at that record. But that will have to be next year.

    For I have a cunning plan. :)

     

    I'm watching you! :blink:

     

    :huh::D

     

    Congratuations to everyone who did the series on Tuesday!

    Who Rates Caches....

    I always do - I've also noticed that only 9 of the 149 caches I've done have been in the top 2000! In some ways I'm not at all surprised, I've always been kind of let down by the vast majority of caches I've done, the best still probably being Fisherman's Walk in North Wales. :rolleyes:

    Perhaps it's time I went for quality rather than... er... ones near to me.
