  1. The study of filth or faeces, or of obscene literature, to be exact
  2. "Over 300 million visits are made to England's woodlands and forests each year. These visits can be to large forests, forest parks, privately owned or community woodlands. the reasons to visit can be as diverse as the forests themselves. from the simple enjoyment of a peaceful walk in the woods to organised events such as forest drives or holidays, the common element is the tranquility and beauty of a forest. Whatever the reason to visit, there is always help on hand. Within major public forests you will find a full range of services including car parks, picnic sites, camping and caravan sites, holiday cabins and visitor centres. Maps and guides, waymarked trails, cycle ways, safe horse-riding routes and a network of recreation rangers will pointb you in the right direction or explain more about the diverse nature of the forest. We want people to visit and enjoy the forests and woods in our care. Many private owners also welcome visitors and willingly open their land for public access. The Forestry Commission can help with this through grants for facilities and information about the woods. No city, town or village in England is more than a one hour drive from a forest and, while people ofetn travel to visit particular attractions, the increase in community woodlands through, for example, the work of the Community Forests, the National Forest, the National Trust and other projects, has brought access to woodlands far closer to the urban communities." Seems to me that all are welcome, but only Geocachers are asked to pay! I have Emailed rebecca.britton@forestry.gsi.gov.uk who appears to be the contact for the whole of the UK, if we are to mass mail anyone it should be her. I am also considering writing to my local Lake District news-papers. Anyone want to suggest the wording?
  3. She was the first person to discover ichthyosaur fossils?
  4. I have cersion (or version 5) even.
  5. You could strip them out of the seals on the fridge and freezer. However, be warned, she who must be obeyed will not appreciate this.
  6. Does anyone else have memory map? I have the Lake District Copy and find it absolutely indispensable. It helps me with my walks and when out geocaching, which I am new to. I particularly like the 3D fly-through feature.
  7. Team, What's a cnotainers? Yes I am looking for the containers...
  8. I don't think terrorist organisations are after Geocacher, and those not in terrorist organisations would find it very difficult to find explosives or things like anthrax. That said, I got stung this morning, I killed the terrorist nettle.

    Micros

    Where can I purchase micro caching equipment in the UK?
  10. Huntcliff, I have now found two, and want to get my DVD stash started. But I sill can't figure out how to find the coordinates from the grid reference! I visited the link you posted but could not find the help I needed!
  11. I wanted to create a new cache (DVD swap) but the form is asking me for coordinates, all I have is a grid reference, Help?
  12. How do I edit the message?

    An Idea

    I have a couple of hundred DVDs, (most I have watched twice) how about I create a cache in which I include three (or more) DVDs? The idea would be for people to take one out and put one in, hopefully, one a finder has not seen before. All DVDs must be genuine and not illegal copies. No Porn. What think you?
  14. What is an FTF? I am new and have not even figured out how to use my Garmin GPS60.
