We're still awaiting a reply but I think others have tried contacting him with no success. Thanks

In the UK? You may be better off asking in one of the facebook forums. Not many cachers use the GS forums. www.facebook.com/groups/thegagb/ may be a start. Yes I'm sure he was from UK. Thanks loads I'll try FB

Does anyone on here know of cacher led. We want to adopt one of his caches but we need permission from him. According to his profile he hasn't been on geocaching since 2011. Has he stopped caching or worst still has he passed away. Any info much appreciated.

here's the link to alphabet soup A http://coord.info/GC2M97J

The best caches we have done are the Alphabet Soup series by Smart451 based nr Matlock in Derbyshire. Very unique caches

John the issue being that the cache did not have Landowner Permission, if it had the NT would have been requested to relocate their cache. Whilst Reviewers will comply with any Landowner request to Archive a cache, even if it's to allow them to place their own cache. If the Owner of that cache has Landowner Permission, it puts us on a stronger footing, as we can initially refuse to Publish, pointing out that the cache has permission and as such they should know where it is located and have suitably placed their own cache. One thing the National Agreement has been in affect for a extended period, and thats allowed CO's with caches on NT land sufficient time to obtain permission. The East Midlands cache was the second incident of a NT submitted caches being placed in a location where there were Published caches without Permission. In the first case, no proximity arouse. But to protect those caches for the future, I disabled them and requested the owners obtain NT Permission, something the NT were happy to give. One cache had been active since 2003. So the NT are not out to kill caches placed with their Permission, they will just not change their plans for caches placed without their permission. At the end of the day it's to do with respect. A cache owner by obtaining their permission is gaining their respect having shown them respect by asking for permission, a cache owner placing a cache without their permission is showing no respect to them, and as such the NT will not show any respect in turn. Deci We think a little respect on NT's behalf wouldn't go amiss seeing as we have in the last few years placed caches in and around the Peak District probably bringing in thousands of visitors. We only adopted the cache not knowing if it had permission or not, but back in the day it wasn't needed so all we can say is it's down to Geocaching to inform future adoptees that the cache needs permission if it's on NT managed land or other managed land.

Thanks for the support, we are sorry and saddened we have had to archive some of our caches, this is due to mindless vandalism by one certain cacher. Won't give names until he's been caught red handed. Not all the caches were trashed but we felt they were vulnerable. One name has been thrown in but he is NOT suspect. Sorry if this has caused you any grief, you know who you are. all the best jinny & dave

Thanks for all the help. Used rutsons macro and it works great cheers

How do you get a pocket query for 500caches onto memory map

wish someone would have contacted the owner of the cache as we would have helped.

Congratulations Shiltonpig on achieving your 1st 100 caches

BIG CONRATULATIONS FROM US TOO. Jinny & Dave (cats-eyes)

Congratulations MrT on your 2500th milestone. Well done and best wishes. Dave & Jinny

Congratulations Steve on your 3000th. Would have been good to have joined you maybe next time, still you had excellent company.Best wishes pal Dave & Jinny.

I don't think it's been recently lost by the looks of it.

We think we know the car park you are referring to. It was once a local meeting place for gays. They were well and truly surprised one Saturday night when a car rally went through.

HAS ANYONE LOST A KEY WHILST DOING OUR C.O.D. GIBBET STONE CACHE?

We ordered our mega mags from a company in Sheffield called Cermag Ltd, they were quick at delivering as well. They do have a web site:- www.cermag.co.uk

Cheers HazelS, it's good to know that there's other mad 'uns out there besides us. LOL Not meaning you of course.

well done phillip from cats-eyes

Don't worry about that PP we all miss things sometimes, like caches he-he cheers Jinny

We have been FTF to 528 caches (1st to sign log book) and also an extra 91 found on the 1st day they were published as some cachers log FTF'S WHEN THEY FOUND THE CACHE ON THE DAY OF PUBLICATION.

I quite agree Tony, it's plain to see what the record is. BTW is there a record for the most First to Finds?
