+B1gbear Posted April 15, 2007 Author Posted April 15, 2007 Here is THE answer to THE question!! once again well done to GAZ for working it out. ( Possible spoiler if you continue to read below this line) It all started about 2 years ago when I saw an article about a bunch of nutters running around the country looking for boxes with bits and bobs in them, yes I thought to myself I would fit right in with a bunch of afore mentioned nutters!! So I registered here to find out all about it and was hooked right away. But unfortunately due to an accident I broke my back and therefore I was unable to run around the country etc etc etc. Well 2 years on and following some heavy duty surgery and half the worlds supply of Titanium I am now able to run walk around and find previously mentioned boxes YA!!!! I can even ride a bike which I always loved to do before..... So that is the answer to why it has taken me so long to find and log my first cache this week - The first I hope of many many many more to come. By the way if you ever come across some other nutter struggling to stand up after rumaging around under a bush - dont be afraid but instead give us a hand!! Quote
