  4. Thanks everyone for your messages, I'll close the thread as it's a bit OT (and there was no need for it in the first place ).
  5. Hi all, MarcB here... It seems after almost three years that the geocaching bug is slowly wearing off. No longer do I feel the need to rush to go out and find a cache whenever I have a spare moment, in fact I can't, being stuck at university has put a stop to that (no car, public transport out of the question). I'm slowly seeing an increasing amount of lame microcaches appearing. Cache contents have never been amazing but have took a real downturn lately - I'd always rather you not leave anything at all than put some "rubbish" in a cache and make it leak. The splitting off into different geocaching factions has also made me sad. And, finally, I'm running out of cache locations in my local area - the one thing that kept me going, showing other people cool places, is shortly about to run out. So, while this is not Geocide, announcing my retirement or a dig at any person, people, group or organisation, I'd just thought I'd let you know my feelings. Best of luck to all the great new cachers that have appeared in the midlands and around the UK as of late, just ignore me and stick with it, the sport/hobby/whatever has changed my life in so many (good) ways and I'm sure it'll change yours. Thanks for reading, MarcB
  6. Well done on reaching your half-millenium! MarcB
  7. Congratulations on your 1100! MarcB
  8. I know of them and that's about it - I think someone met them going up or down Wrekin Havoc once... MarcB
  9. Thanks everyone for your comments, I'm still around but stuck at uni (I'm going to the Gravesend virtual at some point) - just over two weeks until I come back! It is a bit of shame that Zinc has gone missing, I'm still wondering whether to replace it in the same location or to plant a new cache. Also maybe keep an eye out for a short-notice event sometime in late March/early April - it'll just be a straight pub meet in honour of one year of the AQ and not the something else I had planned. Thanks, MarcB
  10. Thanks markandlynn, this is pretty close to me. Any idea about opening times/prices? MarcB
  11. Once again I've got the call of the wild and the urge to place yet more caches (one in particular will be in a really amazing location) but am fresh out of ammo boxes (I'm not a big tupperware fan). So does anyone know a good supplier in the midlands or a cheap internet retailer? Thanks, MarcB
  12. I've given up all hope of ever getting a FTF by me! MarcB
