The first event - Breakfast Bash - Before the Beer starts around 10am and is for the travelers from a far to refresh with a coffee and some junk food.

The third event - Meet + Drink = Smiley (the Southern Connection) has been laid on as an evening function for all who are staying overnight. So come and join in with all the fun and earn 3 event smiles on your profile in one day. Moote Edited January 31, 2006 by Moote Quote Link to comment
+badger Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 What a good idea this was... The evening event will be limited numbers due to having to book tables at the pub. Quote Link to comment

Deego Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 If anybody has their UK Geocoin with them I would be interested in logging it (If you don't mind ) I want to log as many UK coins as possible. In return I will have a reviewer coin, the Chunky Deego TB ( that's me ) or my UK coin that you can log in return, if you wish. Quote Link to comment

Deego Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Who me!!! nah I love logging coin's but its so busy at meets I thought I would just log UK coins. I also need to photograph a Moun10bike coin and a Geowoodstock coin to go on the photo list and maybe a few others (I took about 40 more coins on Saturday I just need to sort them out Thanks Bob so I am not sure what I am short of yet) Quote Link to comment

+bobuk Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I will be showing my face at the 'Swan' some time after 12 noon B. Quote Link to comment
+The Bolas Heathens Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 (edited) Anyone any idea how many loggable caches there will be for the main event apart from the event itself as we're very close to our 100th cache which I already have planned so don't want to pass that at the event? I see mention of some children's caches (presumably these are not loggable?) and maybe some new area caches. I was thinking of getting in some caches on the way to the event if possible too.

I think there will be at least 5 or 6 new caches out on the day that I know of, and Pengy&Tiggers Spectrum Orange cache is very nearby...also Nosiy View and a few others in Lymm are just up the road (but not Lymm dam Frustration if you're after the numbers!). Hope that helps! Edited February 7, 2006 by lizzardman Quote Link to comment
+The Bolas Heathens Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 (edited) Thanks. It sort of helps as I have something to work to. I have 5 finds to go before my 100th, so take one off for the event and that leaves only 4 to do that day. If there are caches to be had at the event I'm not going to be able to help myself so maybe my 100th cache might be more like 105th I guess we could log the event itself as our 100th which would be a very worthy way of celebrating 100 cache finds I think there will be at least 5 or 6 new caches out on the day that I know of, and Pengy&Tiggers Spectrum Orange cache is very nearby...also Nosiy View and a few others in Lymm are just up the road (but not Lymm dam Frustration if you're after the numbers!).

Hope that helps! Just realised - you won't be able to do Spectrum Orange until you've done Spectrum Red and Yellow - sorry! But the events cache is a great way to get your 100!

But the events cache is a great way to get your 100! As we have given special dispensation to log a spectrum series cache before, we will allow it to be logged on the day without visiting red and yellow. Co-ords wil be issued on the day, and it is an easy walk from the pub. T Quote Link to comment

T Gutted I've just done two dawn raids on yellow and infra red to get to this orange one and now you're giving coords out for free on saturday , one of my nearest not founds. ah well Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Ah, but Bargee, you will get even more satisfaction that _I_ got having found only one of the required caches before Orange Quote Link to comment
Deego Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I have just looked and I did Red on the 5th march 05 but have not done yellow. Yet another series I started and never finished Quote Link to comment

+John Stead Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Moote told me to bump this I'd feel more like bumping Moote!!! But seriously I find I may now be able to get to The Romper part of the triple event, maybe not for food but presumably that is not essential. Quote Link to comment
