+Toscouk Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 Are TB`s generally moving slowly or is it ones in Hotels, then maybe it’s just my perception? Well I am on nights this week! How about the TB that are in Hotels what about putting printout of the TB`s goal? It would make it easier for a visitor to decide which one to move on. Johnty Johnty Quote Link to comment
LazyLeopard Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 Check out the Travel Bug section of the forum. One of the recurring topics is the rate at which bugs don't move... Purrs... LazyLeopard http://www.lazyleopard.org.uk Quote Link to comment
+The Wombles Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 How about adopting a new approach to bug hotels? We could specify in the text of each hotel that only people leaving or taking a bug can log a find on the cache. People would also be permitted to log more than once if they move more bugs on separate occasions. It couldn't be retrospective (we've had several non-bug visits to Heathrow Bug Hotel) and I wouldn't include Birmingham since it's not exclusively a bug hotel (too few visits). What does everyone else think? Dave & Nicky Quote Link to comment

+jeremyp Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 It might be a bug hotel, but it's still a cache. Normal rules should apply (IMHO). Maybe travel bugs don't move as quickly because people a) don't visit the cache as often as a normal one or don't take the bugs because by definition they (the bugs) are expecting to go abroad somewhere. It's one thing to take a bug from a normal cache because, if all else fails, you can put it back in another normal cache just up the road. People probably only take TBs from bug hotels if they know they (the people) are going somewhere exotic in the near future. ------- jeremyp The second ten million caches were the worst too. http://www.jeremyp.net/geocaching Quote Link to comment
+lathama Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 In the UK how many bug hotels are there???? Quote Link to comment

el10t Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 That's the beauty of using Tim and June's terminology for these - just type "bug hotel" into the search by keyword box and it lists them. ----------------- el10t mobilis in mobili Quote Link to comment
