Hockey Nuts Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi Was just wondering if there are any geo groups that meet up in the Essex or London area? If so would like to get involved. Sorry if this is not the right place to put this on. Thanks for your time Heather Quote Link to comment
+The Chaos Crew Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi Was just wondering if there are any geo groups that meet up in the Essex or London area? If so would like to get involved. Sorry if this is not the right place to put this on. Thanks for your time Heather Hi Heather Sorry to take your thread off topic before it has even gotten going – I’m sure someone from the area will be along shortly to answer your question (I have seen events advertised down Essex-way, but I’m not sure if there is a regularly meeting group as such) – but I am drawn to your user name…. Is that ice or field hockey you are nuts about? If ice, then me too! And if you are a Raiders fan, then I must say that we don’t half miss you guys in the EPL this year Sarah (big up the Wildcats massive!! ) Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately the EPL is to expensive for a few teams now. We've been quite a few times to Swindon and always been made welcome and seen good games. Happy geocaching and puck watching Sarah nice to chat too you. Hev Quote Link to comment
+Maple Leaf Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I have just had a quick look at the events coming up in your area. GC2FTFF in Ipswich (tonight) ... if you want to head over the border. GC2GJRV Tower Bridge (tomorrow night) GC2EWTG near Colchester (Weds 17th Nov) Have a look at the GAGB Calendar , or use the Advanced search on the Hide & Seek cache page or the newest in UK (or your region) on the right hand side of your profile page.

+currykev Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 There are meet-ups in the London area almost every month. These are organised by a chap named goldpot. Always fun and a great place to meet fellow geo-nutters. Look for events using the google maps. Or set up a notification on the GC.com pages. Quote Link to comment
+Maple Leaf Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 .... snip.... Look for events using the google maps. ... snip.... That is the way I always used to look to see if there were any events in the area when I was working away from home. However, so many times I clicked on them to look at the details, only to be disappointed coz the event was already past. If only the event holders would archive their events. Currently in the UK there are 104 events listed .... of which 61 have already pasted (ok, some have only just happened ... but some are 6mths ago now) Quote Link to comment
+MartyBartfast Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 .... snip.... Look for events using the google maps. ... snip.... or use the GAGB calendar here Oh and a second recommendation for Goldpot's events in London, I always try to pop along after work if I can. Quote Link to comment

+sssss Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 ok thanks for your help everyone, will look into the london events, unfortunately those that have been mentioned we cannot make but I'm sure something will come along that we can attend. Heather You can of course have an event out in your neck of the woods. Just pick a day and a time to suit you. Find a suitable venue then submit your event. Then as they say Bobs your uncle. It is really really easy. Quote Link to comment
+SXParx Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 (edited) Essex cachers meet every other month - you have already said you can't make the next one, but the one after that will be in January. Each event is hosted by a different cacher and it moves around the county. Come along and say hi - they are a friendly bunch and are keen to meet new blood You could also look out for an SXparx event next one will be a CITO in the New Year.
