MajellaG Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Hi I'm Majella. I live in the Ballymena area in Northern Ireland. My Mother-In-Law introduced me to the world of Geocaching just last nite & I was instantly hooked. Cant wait for the weekend now to start hunting. I'm so impressed that there is so many within as little as 2 miles from my house. My husbands not that keen but Id say once we've found our first one he'll get the bug!! I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO excited, wish me luck!! P.S. Id love to hear from all you local guys & say Hello!! Quote Link to comment

hoosier guy Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Not a local guy but my great grandfather was from County Galway so I offer a hale and hearty hello. Quote Link to comment
+popokiiti Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I'm part Irish, and proud of it! It's great that you and Mum-in-law enjoy something together. Do you live close to each other? If so, you have a caching partner when hubby doesn't want to go. Hubby will come around, and if he doesn't, it's always good to have hobbies of your own. He may not want to spend too much time with Mum - more with you alone? It's also handy to have someone experienced to whom you can direct some questions. The rest you can ask here - lots of knowledgeable folk who are great at helping. Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I hope you'll have a lot of fun with your new hobby. In case you haven't discovered it yet, there's also a regional forum here for the UK and Ireland. You may also like to dip into Geocaching Ireland which also has its own forum.

Where I'm concerned the whole mother - in - law stereotype is completely wrong. We get on so well & have lots in common, which is why she mentioned geocaching to me cos she knew I'd totally love the idea. I doubt if we will do it together tho, we are very competitive, (& she's already 3 ahead of me!)but you never know. Stranger things have happened as they say! Quote Link to comment
MajellaG Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 Tá m'árthach foluaineach lán d'eascanna! Hi Brian, Is there any chance of a translation? It looks like Irish? But I'm very rusty! LOL Quote Link to comment
