+housefamily Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Hi all. We're approaching our next milestone, and I'd really like to make it an interesting/memorable one. Does anybody have any suggestions of a cache we could do in the Southampton or Aylesbury area (we're visiting my parents today which is why we're in Southampton!) Puzzles/physically difficult caches are ok, but I'd prefer a reasonable length multi or trad. Any thoughts or suggestions would be hugely appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+Bambography Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Although not a long multi/trad this one will be a worthy milestone if you were to find it. Not As It Seems near Southampton has beaten me on 2 occasions and others more than that. If you were to pop down and find it on your first visit then you'd have something to celebrate!

+Mr'D Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 (edited) I'd recommend Top Spot if you like adventures and have a sense of humour! (I think it's more or less on your route) Jon Edited November 7, 2007 by Mr.Dewdrop Quote Link to comment
+housefamily Posted November 7, 2007 Author Share Posted November 7, 2007 Not As It Seems near Southampton I've heard a lot about this cache - and from reading the logs I'm not sure I'm as agile as previous visitors. We also don't have a change of clothes.... But great idea, and thanks anyway! Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I recommend heading north to Your Havin` a Laugh! (Northants) by Messe. Awesome cache that -if you're ok in the dark- should be easy enough to do. Quote Link to comment

I'd planned for this to be my 300th however i slight miscalculation in numbers meant that I wasn't in the area at the right time. instead I think it'll be WWFM London on Saturday.

+Sensei TSKC Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Try Xtraction (GC14VQQ) WITHOUT any PAF's or hints. It has some great ideas, bit of math and a good hide! Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Cold War in Oxfordshire is a wicked cache not so far from you that I see you've not already done. It's only a quick in and out but you'd enjoy it. Quote Link to comment
Alan White Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Try Xtraction (GC14VQQ) WITHOUT any PAF's or hints.... ...and therefore no chance whatever of finding it . It took us three visits, an email, three PAFs, and an educated guess. Oh yes, and it "Takes less than 1 hour" . Quote Link to comment
Alan White Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 (edited) OK, after some playing with GSAK here are some hopefully more constructive suggestions . There are so many good (and great) caches around Aylesbury that really you're spoiled for choice. Some of the many caches we've enjoyed around there are: The Ring Hew'n'Cry Bruad Chartridge Charabanc tour All of SP's Chess series (but you seem to have them all) Thame Town Teaser (Oxon, but it's only 10 miles from Aylesbury. But you probably don't want to do this for reasons I won't give away ) Edited November 8, 2007 by Alan White Quote Link to comment
