+Dizzley Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I just saw the following log on a cache I am watching: I attempted to tap the paper out which it did and shot out of my hand and rolled into the water. Firstly I felt a pang of sympathy, then I laughed my ar$e off! Sometimes it seems that the elements conspire against us - especially water. Any more stories of personal experience?

+Teuchters Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Visiting Andrea's Smile on the Isle of Skye some years ago, the cache container fell in the river as I was writing the log - that was the last I saw of it..... Quote Link to comment

Nice one! I'm reminded that the UK lost quite a few caches in this year's floods. - The least of anyone's worries. What about the other elements: Earth, Wind and Fire? Oooh! I feel like going all disco. Boogie Wonderlaaaand! Quote Link to comment

+Carlos & The Birdie Crew Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Whilst out with a Gingerbreadman, Jorf'n and Daddy Mars Bar on PuP's new Pongi cache, I managed to carefully place my rucksack down and watched it drop straight into the stream beneath Pongi's Bridge.

+SidAndBob Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 We found this Write and Mane cache in May 2007 in a similar fire to the one above. Then we found another of their caches a month later which had been torched in a bonfire. Just a blob of molten plastic left. Quote Link to comment
