+PopUpPirate Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Sorry to do it this way, but I've tried various other means - Your counties are the last to be hidden for the LITTLE QUEST. Check out http://www.nwcaching.co.uk/quest.php and http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=170106 Can you hide a Little Quest cache for either West Yorks or Cumbria? Thanks Quote Link to comment
+Jaz666 Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Apologies again for not placing it, due to putting my house on the market I've only manage to get out caching five times since the start of August. I've posted a request for volunteers in the Yorkshire forum. Quote Link to comment
+Guanajuato Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 (edited) I'd love to help - Cumbria accounts for nearly 2/3 of my caches, with West Yorkshire a (distant) second at about 1/6. However, I'm not going to get much chance to get out over the next few weeks - addition to the family arriving (very) soon. There's loads of other cachers around here actively placing caches. I'll point a couple of people in this direction... Editted to add: I'll have a word with the wife tonight though - maybe we could find somewhere. Just not sure about how to get permissions...

+roveron Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I don't know if this helps, but I'm going to be caching in the Carlisle area (from the coast and eastward towards Newcastle) the week of 12 Nov. I'd be delighted to hide a cache then if it will help, provided someone else is the "owner". Obviously it would be a bit difficult for me to maintain it. It would be sorta cool to have a hide in the UK. Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted October 23, 2007 Author Share Posted October 23, 2007 Sounds good, do you know the area well enough to hide a top-notch cache? Quote Link to comment
+stonefielders Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 We can do West Yorkshire. Can you just let me know a little more either here or e mail through profile eg does the cache need to go live on a specific date, are there any other requirements other than at least small (we don't do micros anyway!) no more than a mile from the road (a challenge for us!) and including the LQ title info.

+roveron Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 (edited) Sounds good, do you know the area well enough to hide a top-notch cache? Unfortunately, I'm not sure I can commit to doing it. It's my fiancee's birthday, so she might have other plans But we'll try to check back closer to the time, and see if it still needs doing. Edited October 24, 2007 by roveron Quote Link to comment
+martlakes Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I'm happy to give it a go if needed. I think I know the area quite well! Quote Link to comment

I think you are showing a serious lack of commitment - you are going to have to set some priorities! <pulls tongue out of cheek> I love Cumbria, and my first caching was done there. But it's 2 hours from home so I don't feel like I can own a cache there. Most Lake District caches involve a pleasant (and sometimes arduous) hike. Quote Link to comment

+martlakes Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 So, is someone going to make a decision here? Where's that Pirate gone? I'm still willing and able if required and could do it this weekend, or very happy to leave it to someone else. Cheers Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 Martlakes yes that's brill! Check out www.nwcaching.co.uk/quest.php for the hide info. If you are going to hide the cache, Mart, whap me an email and I'll send back the codes to pop on the logbook. Thanks Quote Link to comment
+martlakes Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Ok, I'll get to it and find a handy spot. Hopefully should be sorted by Sunday. Email coming. Quote Link to comment
+maxkim Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Are they all sorted now? Still willing to do either. MaxKim. Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted October 26, 2007 Author Share Posted October 26, 2007 Just awaiting confirmation about W Yorks which is being sorted imminently... I believe... and then Martlakes should have Cumbria up this weekend - YAY! Quote Link to comment
+maxkim Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Thanks, you did email and I did reply yes but asked for details.... Cheers Max Quote Link to comment

+martlakes Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Ok, all sorted for Cumbria, box in place and long (but very interesting!) cache page written. Tried to give visitors a typical trip out in the Lakes but on a small scale to fit with the series. Some of the other possible spots have, of course, already got caches on them! Anyway, hope it is enjoyed by all who visit. Just waiting for Deceangi to review it, hopefully no problems will be found. (He's a bit slow tonight, it's been at least 5 minutes since I put it in the queue!) Quote Link to comment
+martlakes Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Dave has reviewed the cache while I was writing the last post (thanks), so check out GC170HY if you want to see the result of a very pleasant afternoon in the hills. Quote Link to comment

(He's a bit slow tonight, it's been at least 5 minutes since I put it in the queue!) Sorry about the delay the sites running a tad slow tonite. Is that the last one apart from the final? Which has already been pre-reviewed and is ready to go Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 No - mine (Merseyside) is still to place.... I've met with the head ranger re approval and he isnt happy that there are already 4 caches in the area that he didnt know about...so.... I have a great spot in mind now - just need to pop downand place it. All sorted no probs (as far as I know!!) Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 Thanks Martlakes, Deccy, Hazel Quote Link to comment
+stonefielders Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 W Yorks cache is in place Just working out what needs to be written Hopefully I'll have it written up tomorrow Martyn Quote Link to comment
rastan Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Am I correct in thinking that the caches we are now waiting for are: EAST SUSSEX, GREATER LONDON, HERTFORDSHIRE, LINCOLNSHIRE, MERSEYSIDE, WEST YORKSHIRE? and STAFFORDSHIRE has been temporarily unavailable since August 19th? Please let me know if any of the above have been published, cheers. Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Yes : EAST SUSSEX, GREATER LONDON, HERTFORDSHIRE, LINCOLNSHIRE, MERSEYSIDE, WEST YORKSHIRE Still to go live. No pressure... yet What's the quickest timescale they could all be found in? Quote Link to comment
Deceangi Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Yes : EAST SUSSEX, GREATER LONDON, HERTFORDSHIRE, LINCOLNSHIRE, MERSEYSIDE, WEST YORKSHIRE Still to go live. No pressure... yet What's the quickest timescale they could all be found in? West Yorkshire is live Quote Link to comment
rastan Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Yes : EAST SUSSEX, GREATER LONDON, HERTFORDSHIRE, LINCOLNSHIRE, MERSEYSIDE, WEST YORKSHIRE Still to go live. No pressure... yet What's the quickest timescale they could all be found in? mmmm, I'm working on it, the quickest timescale that I could find them all depends on how long it takes to persuade Mrs Rastan that travelling all over England at every opportunity is not "a waste of time and money spent on diesel" will get there eventually, did manage a very nice trip as far as South Yorkshire the other day ....just need a few more such trips! Anyone know what the story is with STAFFORDSHIRE? Thanks to Deceangi for pointing out that WEST YORKSHIRE has gone live today - another chance for me to sit in the roadworks on the M1 Quote Link to comment
