+davy boy Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Some time ago i helped someone with an article for the Outdoor enthusiast mag to promote Geocaching and has now been published in the March issue. The Mag is available from most outdoor shops and by mail order,the article is four pages long and has some excellent pics of local cachers and caches. There is a pic of the cliffs near (Compare contrast cache),a pic of Stueys Charmouth fossil hunt earthcache,a pic of me coming out of the underworld series bonus (not good)!!!The Cache sniffer holding one of Hillscape's caches in mid Wales,a pic of Skate coming out of one of the underworld series caches and one of the Cantor clan coming out of Knackered knees,(the underworld series again. I think the mag can also be ordered through your local newsagent at a cost of £4.95,and excellent write up and pics for Geocaching.com!!!! Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Is the article available online anywhere? And before you all shout G GLE ... I've already tried that without any success! Quote Link to comment
+davy boy Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 Am checking the whereabouts of the magazine and will post here when i have more info,the only place i know of at the moment is the cotswold outdoor shops. Quote Link to comment
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Many thanks for offering to scan it for the rest of us to read Davy Boy! Oh, you didn't offer? I know you meant to! Quote Link to comment
+davy boy Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 No scanner but taken some pics and uploaded them Here. Might need to copy pics into photo editor and resize up a bit to read though,but the best i could do!! Quote Link to comment
+CANTOR CLAN Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) the top of my head is famous who said fat people can`t squeeze down caves perhaps i should start practising my signature for all those autograph hunters Edited March 19, 2007 by CANTOR CLAN Quote Link to comment
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 That's really good, if you click on the pix you can see them; large enough to read ... Thank you ... I'll read them after dinner. Quote Link to comment
+davy boy Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 Have eventually tracked some of the mags down if anyone wants one. Thomas moores of Exeter,and if u ask nicely Steve of the Blazing otters will sort u out. Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 The Golem works for Cotswolds outdoors place int he lakes too.... maybe he could sort us a copy out???? Quote Link to comment
+BlazingOtters Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Have eventually tracked some of the mags down if anyone wants one. Thomas moores of Exeter,and if u ask nicely Steve of the Blazing otters will sort u out. As I type this I have eight copies of the mag on my desk, I have earmarked one for Skate and one for the Cantors. If anyone else wants one I would be happy to send them one on. The mag normally retails at £4.95 but as it has a couple of photos of Davy Boy in, it has devalued the mag. I would be happy to send the other 6 copies to deserving cachers for no charge. Just mail me if you want a copy. Steve. Quote Link to comment
+BlazingOtters Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 In the next issue there is going to be a large article about Waymaking. Davy Boy is again going to be featured, sharing his vast experience and love of Waymarking to the magazine reading public. If anyone has any amusing stories or pictures of Waymarking - I am sure Dave would love to here from you. Quote Link to comment

+ryme-intrinseca Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I would love a copy if you have any left, but please let me pay for it and give you money for postage! Quote Link to comment
+BlazingOtters Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I would love a copy if you have any left, but please let me pay for it and give you money for postage! If you let me have your address I will send a copy off to you. I am quite happy to cover the costs but if you really can't accept one with my compliments, I will include my address with the mag so you can make a contribution. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment
+ryme-intrinseca Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Sorry, I didn't mean to cause offence? It's very generous of you to offer to post it for free, but I'm not used to people giving me free things! I'm too lazy to walk to a shop and buy the mag, and besides, I like getting post (apart from bills), it makes me feel happy . I would feel much less guilty if I could pay for it though. I've sent you an email with my address, and if you'd like me to send a cheque please let me know. Thanks once again. Quote Link to comment
+BlazingOtters Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I have sent the magazines off today to everyone who requested one. I hope you enjoy reading them. Steve Quote Link to comment
+Stuey Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Thanks Steve for letting me have a copy, and thanks Dave for doing the article. It's great to see caches that I have done, and cachers that I have met as well as one of my own caches in print. Cheers both! Quote Link to comment
