+Simply Paul Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 While in Dorset today I drove past here, and it set me wondering, who else has a caching name of a real place. I believe there's a Welsh mountain represented by a caching team name, and while there's a Paul in Cornwall, there's no Simply's anywhere, that I know of. So... Yes? Quote Link to comment

+The Blorenges Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Why? Because we found our first cache on the Blorenge, near Abergavenny Originally "he" registered as just "Blorenge" but then, in recognition of my devoted services to mapreading, we became The Blorenges MrsB Quote Link to comment
+Molinnis Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 We originally lived in Molinnis Rd in Bugle, Mid Cornwall which led to the hamlet of Molinnis hence our caching name. Quote Link to comment

+Foinavon Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) While in Dorset today I drove past here, and it set me wondering, who else has a caching name of a real place. I believe there's a Welsh mountain represented by a caching team name, and while there's a Paul in Cornwall, there's no Simply's anywhere, that I know of. So... Yes? I intended to do this my naming myself after my favourite mountain in Scotland. However I didn't spell it right and ended up naming myself after the horse who won the 1967 Grand National at 100/1. He does have a fence named after him at Aintree so maybe that counts as a place! Edited October 12, 2006 by Foinavon Quote Link to comment
+Bill D (wwh) Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 My caching name obviously isn't based on a placename, but I do have a user name elsewhere that is. Why? Dunno, really, I just liked it...! Quote Link to comment

+Munkeh Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Why?

If you're coming down to the New Forest you might like to call in here in Brokenhurst for a bite to eat. Now if you can talk them into opening similar south of Newlyn you'll have cracked it!

+Simply Paul Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 The trick is to re-enter the forums via a link on the GC.com pages, rather than use a 'favourite pages' link. It's only by returning to the forum via its 'front door' after updating pic or text info that you'll see the updated version/s. Quote Link to comment
