+KiwiGary Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 (edited) Hi, We much sadness , we are leaving England to return to our homeland of New Zealand. We are very sad to be leaving all our new caching friends in England. If you keen to say goodbye in person, you should see us both at our event on October 18th. It can be accessed via this link. Anyway obviously it will be very hard for us to maintain our caches from 18279 kms away, that’s 11,358 miles for the English among you . So if you think these caches are worth saving and you have the time to maintain them, then please put your name forward to adopt the ones that interest you. We have created a bookmark with all our caches; you can access it by clicking here. KiwiGary’s and KiwiTulip’s Caches up for adoption If you are ever get to New Zealand, be sure and drop us a line if you need a local caching guide . Any caches not adopted will be archived on 14 October 2006, and then removed from their hides to prevent Geotrash. Thanks Gary and Margaret Edited October 2, 2006 by KiwiGary Quote
Deego Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Hope your move and cache addoption goes well. Glad I had the pleasure of caching with you and good luck with your hunts back home. Quote
alistair_uk Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Hi Gary and Margaret, Sorry I can not make it to the goodbye event. I wish you all the best. Quote
+Alibags Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 (edited) Gary, I will adopt Bank Alley, The Biggest Cache and (if you tell me how to solve it and where it is!!) the Unusual Object (he he! ) if nobody else wants them. If they do, then that's fine. Edited October 2, 2006 by Alibags Quote
+Mad H@ter Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 (edited) We would love to have the honour of adopting one of your caches, but I'm sorry to say that all your caches are a little bit outside our area to be able to realistically maintain . As we can't adopt any of your caches we would love to make you a final farewell bacon buttie at The Big Freeze, hope you can make it! Edited October 2, 2006 by Phillimore Clan Quote
+The Bongtwashes Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Gary, as I've only found 3 of your caches so far, and got one FTF alone, I'd like to adopt 'The Great Train Robbery (Bucks)', even though I forgot to take the FTF certificate when I found it! See you on the 18th, and good luck on your quest for 1k finds by then Quote
+lordelph Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Happy to maintain "The Sticky Cache" which I did at the weekend! Quote
+Beds Clangers Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 I'll try to make the 18th, work permitting!!! I'll take your two Woburn caches. Cheers Nick Quote
+browni Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Gary and Margaret, Sorry but we will not be able to get to your event, but all the best for the future. We met you 2 o 3 times and did a couple of caches with you at an event. Bon voyage from Ian & Dawn. Quote
+Birders Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Glad you're leaving this tip and returning to sanity - and tangelos, passion fruit and hokey-pokey ice cream! God willing we'll be down there early next year on another family visit and hope to do some caches this time.. Take care and have a good trip back... Quote
