+pklong Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Another weekend's camping and caching opportunity - for more info please click here. Looks good to me, I'll be there as a day visitor - this one is even close enough for me to wobble to on my bike! Looks like the Derbyshire cachers group is on the case for this one, so caching should be good! Look our for caches from: UK89Camaro: Cache container could be anything. The Web Rats: Caches within staggering distance of the event. TeamGB: Nice countryside walks. For anyone attending, you should come prepared knowing what a 'Friedel Micro' is: Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 Very impressed with the Derbyshire cachers .... offers of help within hours of the event going live. What a lovely bunch Quote Link to comment
+uk89camaro Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Very impressed with the Derbyshire cachers .... offers of help within hours of the event going live. What a lovely bunch Hi folks, I've put three down in woods local to beehive Farm today, with another 3 to come. Webrats have put another two down. All of them in nice woodland with a bit of a walk, so great for kids and geomutz. We don't do rubbish micro caches round here, class caches only. (I think we are a a little spoilt being in the heart of the national forest though.) Pklong has an excellent puzzle cache near Ashby, if anyone cares to divert that way. Code 39. The Webrats have an equally excellent puzzle at castle gresley, Cretu's White Lady. Both puzzles can be solved on t'interweb in advance. Look forward to meeting you. Paul Quote Link to comment

+pklong Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Attendees who want to add another easy find whilst at the event should do their homework and have a go at solving Lucky 7, oh and if you are coming in from the East you've just gotta find Dave en-route! Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Not sure now if I can make this one.... I have too many staff off in work, even though I booked my leave 1st...grrrr I'll not know for a few weeks yet. Quote Link to comment

There's no rush Hazel - it's miles off and we will be able to fit you in last minute if need be. Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Do any locals know if there are any other sites nearby? Nearest I can find is five miles away. Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Do any locals know if there are any other sites nearby? Nearest I can find is five miles away. There is plenty of room on the event site. When you make your booking you need to state that you are with the Geocaching rally - therirusual rule about large tents does not apply because we are a rally. If anyone has any problem booking, please let me know via email so I can sort it quickly. Thanks, Liane [] Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Errr... OK.... I'm confused! Email sent as requested :-) Quote Link to comment
+BlackWidow_and_Food Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Errr... OK.... I'm confused! Email sent as requested :-) I booked just before you posted Rutson and they have lots of space available, they only had two hook ups left. The site looks nice and the guys in the office were asking me about caching and what kind of things we do at camping events Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 It's OK - Rutsons got in and there's still LOADS of space - woot! Quote Link to comment
+cacherelle Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Attendees who want to add another easy find whilst at the event should do their homework and have a go at solving Lucky 7, And just WHAT is remotely easy about THAT one?? Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I heard a rumour this weekend that the campsite is fully booked now... I still don't know whether I can come or not, and so don't want to book and pay a deposit if I find later on that I can't come.... Can anyone clarify? Quote Link to comment
+Madyokel Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Following on from Hazel here.. We are very interested but have been a tad busy for the last few months lol Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I had a hugely confusing exchange with the campsite that went roughly like this: Me: I'd like to book blah blah blah Them: Sorry we're full with a rally, would you like to book for another weekend? Me: I'm with the geocaching group Them: Sorry we're full with a rally, would you like to book for another weekend? Me:Errr... that would defeat the object rather! Liane got involved then all of a sudden there was room, and plenty of it it seems. All very odd, but seems there's lots of room. Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 Just to ease the confusion .... if you don't mention that you are with the Geocaching rally, you are likely to be told they are full. The magic word is "Geocaching" Hazel, you mentioned that you wouldn't know til last minute whether you could make it or not ... we will squeeze you in, no worries. Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hazel, you mentioned that you wouldn't know til last minute whether you could make it or not ... we will squeeze you in, no worries. Ta Liane... If I can get the kitchen decorated the weekend before I'll be there from Thursday... if not, then Friday night!!!!! Too much to do and so little time!! Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 Ouch! BUMP! Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 One week left to sign up!!! Can anyone who hasn't yet paid their deposit please get in touch with the campsite - see event page for details. Thanks. Still room for a few more if you are quick! (Hazel - don't worry ... keeping a place for you ) (I will be offline from this evening until Monday evening so won't be able to respond to any queries/emails/posts but will deal with them on my return, cheers, Liane) Quote Link to comment
