I want to travel to N. Yorkshire the next time in the UK but am curious if geocaching in the UK is being hampered by the foot and mouthy stuff?

[Guest Moss Trooper]

Yep.. it is..

 

But the ones being set are usually uneffected by F & M. all the ones set sofar can be accessed with no problem.

 

And the restrictions are slowly being lifted.. so by th etime yer get ere yer may have to be ready fer a hike.. )

 

An some of mine will need oxygen LOL LOL LOL

[Guest Street Pilot]

There are a few frustrated cachers over here just waiting for the resrictions to be lifted so they can get out and place more caches. Some areas are easier to access than others, the worst affected being Cumbria and Devon. The worst is over now and but it is a slow process getting back to normal.

[Guest Monz]

I will be placing a cache in North Yorks next week... West Yorks the week after that and East Yorks the week after that well it might be closer to North Lincs but not far out.

 

I just hope someone decides to come and search for them after all the trouble to make and hide them...

As the Lord almost certainly never said, "cache and they shall seek"

[Guest Monz]

Moss and JasonW

 

You better have done a good job hiding your caches... "we're a comin"

 

Bank holiday Monday is "Cache back day" for me and my other half

[Guest Moss Trooper]

Well Monz.. mine is sorta easy.. but Woodhorn is a stinker.. and remember.. Kirknewton my friend.. when you walk through the gate.. well.. you will remember.. Don't have to be November.

[Guest Moss Trooper]

And remember grape an pillage works both ways.. I know it was grape.. was a bunch of em!!!!!!!

[Guest JasonW]

Good cache Monz - shame about the dumped car parts etc in lanes around the woods

 

Still I walked past it twice before realising where it was.

 

Took nothing - left something.

[Guest Monz]

OMG... how did you manage to leave something without taking anything... I filled the box right up to the brim... had to squeeze the cache notice in with a shoe horn.

 

GRRRRR why didnt you take anything... do I need to put better quality things in the cache?

Well there was plenty of room after I rearranged the stuff to drop my 'something' in - as for why I took nothing - well for me the main thing is finding the cache not like some of our $$$$-obsessed colleagues elsewhere....

[Guest JasonW]

In fact - just thinking about it - although I'm certain I left something, I can't remember what without doing an inventory of my cache kit

Anyone know how many there are now?

[+The Book Of Shadows]

A tupperware box?

Curious and rather sad to see that all the original posters are now unregistered.

All posts from that time have the user as unregistered, maybe because the threads were imported from a previous version of the forum.

Could the mod responsible for closing one old, innocuous, thread while leaving the others open please explain the thinking?

 

If he feels it inappropriate to bump such an old thread because of its age (that was the implication), then why not close ALL such threads so they cannot be bumped?

[+MartyBartfast]

I suppose this could be closed under the "promoting your own caches is not allowed" rule

[SlytherinAlex]

That's not a rule, it's a guideline.

 

In fact I don't think its even a guideline, I think its just "best practice"

[+Lost in Space]

..."best practice"..

 

Define please, as related to this forum of late..............

A quick fiddle suggest there are about 2495 active caches in Yorkshire:

 

1027 North Yorkshire

1034 West Yorkshire

434 South Yorkshire

[+mongoose39uk]

Does South Yorkshire count?

Just a note... I left this topic open since it seemed to be bumped with a valid question, where the one I closed was bumped with just "Congratulations " (bumping for the sake of bumping almost). Thanks to rutson for doing some looking around. Nice work.
