adrianjohn Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Hello lactodorum and welcome as our new moderator, just spotted that, nice to have you here. Have boots and GPSr, will cache for fun! Quote Link to comment
Lactodorum Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 By Heck - you're quick!!! At the moment my account is in the process of being set up and I was going to wait until it was complete before 'coming out of the closet' Anyway thanks for the welcome. Although my profile indicates I'm a new geocacher with no finds this is just a convenience to separate my moderator/approver function from my regular geocaching activities. Actually I have been caching for over a year (clue 1) and have a 3 figure number of finds (clue 2). I don't doubt you will take great delight in 'exposing' me but if you do, don't spoil the fun for others by posting my 'real' identity here. E-mail me direct and I'll send you my congratulations. The other clue is in my username I will be doing my best to help Eckington with the approval workload, I'll certainly have something to live up to. Please be gentle with me, at least to start with. I have no doubt I'll make mistakes but I'll be trying my best. Quote Link to comment
+Rocky Balboa Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Welcome and good luck you'll need it! Only 1 guess as to who you are and it's a long shot but i will do some digging Its just a hunt for a lunch box, why be so serious!?! © Dan Wilson - www.Buckscaching.co.uk - Stash Notes, forums & Much more...

MCL Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 Not hugely interested in "outing" moderators, to be honest, but the name Lactodorum has always made me smile. Living in Milton Keynes, I often drive through Lactodorum (it is the original Roman name for Towcester, which is pronounced "toaster" for all our international readers...) and every time I pass the sign I imagine that "lactodorum" should be the name of some ointment you rub on your warts or something....

The Cuthberts Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Can we log a 'find' if we work out your alter-ego ? Good luck in the job. Has Groundspeak issued your 'admin-bricks' yet ??? Andy Quote Link to comment
+Eckington Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Yabadabadoo...... .....the cavalry has arrived. I can go caching again rather than sit at the keyboard 24/7 (well thats what Mrs eckington says anyway!!!!) Great to have you aboard Lactodorum. Eckington Quote Link to comment

+The Hungry Caterpillars Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Hi,Lactodorum-just wondering if letting people presume you are male is a dastardly ploy? .We are glad that Eckington has some help at long last. . Quote Link to comment
+The Wombles Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Pleased to see you're helping out, Lactodorum. Hope you've been issued with the standard asbestos undergarments? Hope you enjoy the challenge.... Dave Quote Link to comment
Lactodorum Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Yes - I've been issued with the standard Asbestos briefs and have taken delivery of a goodly supply of "Admin Bricks" so don't go upsetting me Am I male? Ask my wife that one (oops, what a give away!) I have to say that I'm a little disappointed in you all. It's been a whole day and so far only one person has managed to e-mail me with my correct alter ego. Well done Dan! Come on guys and gals, don't let me get the better of you. Quote Link to comment

+Slytherin Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Welcome and good luck Lacktie. I'm pleased that you hve declared yourself a "back to basic" kind of geocacher. I'm sure you will do fine. As for the name in the clue. I reckon that Towcester is a decoy and Lactodorum is actually an anagram of your favoutite tipple: Old Coot Rum hopefully it's not: Curt Old Moo No more clues.

+Slytherin Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Oh well... another go. How about, he always smells good: Talcum Odor but he isn't always well turned out, especially after caching trips: Mud Locator Alex. ------------------------------------------------ Knights of the Green Shield stamp and shout.....

+MarcB Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Hmm I didn't think it was that hard... [] One wrong guess and that was just plain stupid [] I have a great plan for the next meet for finding out who Eckington is... Just shout their name and see who turns round [] MarcB Took Log Book, Left Nothing Quote Link to comment

+Chris n Maria Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Just thought We'd say hi and that the anagram we get is curtal doom - perhaps that is a moderators job description ?
