+Simply Paul Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 I know they're out of fashion, but I think it's right to acknowledge the good doctor hit 15,000 yesterday, on GC25TKM Ardingly to Lindfield #6 - Amazingly this is only 11 months since he reached 10k; an average hit-rate of around 15 caches per day, every day, or one every 96 minutes, day in day out, 24/7! Perhaps a micro on a long walk wasn't landmark material, but it was a great day out in perfect caching weather (so long as you had enough water and a hat- and we did) and as such, memorable. A very impressive achievement; please join in with some 'well dones': Well done on your 15, finds Alan! Quote
+Unobtainium Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Great achievement makes my 500 in 3 years look pretty pittyful CONGRATS Quote
+AngryBirds Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Some doctors recommend an apple a day to stay healthy, others 15 caches Bravo, this in an impressive achievement ! Quote
+drsolly Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 one every 96 minutes, day in day out, 24/7! Getting out of bed to find a cache to keep up those "every 96 minutes" isn't easy, I can tell you; getting ladysolly up to accompany me is even tougher. But those caches won't find themselves, you know, and someone has to do it. Quote
+The Klever Boys Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Superb- well done! I guess we must be amongst the few who have been with you when you have logged a DNF! Quote
+jason johnson Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Superb- well done! I guess we must be amongst the few who have been with you when you have logged a DNF! What, you mean he`s missed some Well done, indeed to britain`s most prolific cacher Quote
+MartyBartfast Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 No wonder your toes hurt ! Seriously though, well done, that's really going some. Quote
+dibbler69 Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Well done. How many were done with aching toes!!! http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=254355 Quote
+Simply Paul Posted July 11, 2010 Author Posted July 11, 2010 Well done, indeed to britain`s most prolific cacher Let's not undersell him; Europe's most prolific cacher. 34th in the world I believe... Quote
+qrang Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Well done Alan - just keep those toes in good shape! Quote
+NickandAliandEliza Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Amazing. What do you do in your spare time out of interest? Quote
+susiemerlin1 Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Wow Well Done Are they any caches left for him to do! To think I was so excited to get 500 a couple of weeks to go Quote
+CnJnA Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Yesterday we hit 200..........perhaps we need to walk a bit faster? Congratulations- now could you email me your phone number so you can be my PAF? Quote
+burtsbodgers Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Well done. But is there any chance you can go out and find a job to give the rest of us a chance It must be starting to be a struggle to find some you haven't done! Keep it up though Quote
+drsolly Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Amazing. What do you do in your spare time out of interest? I run a small internet company. Quote

Keep it up though Uh - I already have a job, I run a small internet company. Fortunately, the computers do nearly all the work. No problem finding new caches to do - there's 18,000 not done within 150 km of home. Quote
+abiherts Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Congrats on the 15k finds, I wish I could put as much time into caching as you do []. I look forward to seeing you clock up the next 5,000! Quote
