I think all the spaces have been taken. Contact House of boo as they are the organisers. Quote Link to comment
+House Of Boo Posted May 28, 2005 Author Share Posted May 28, 2005 Due to Mancunian Pyrocacher being unable to attend we have 1 space available for this event. Therefore first post on the cache page (not the forums) gets the place - any takers?? House of Boo Quote Link to comment
+BedlingtonDuo Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Just dropped off a few bugs including a coin and a jeep! We also noticed there is a jeep on scafell as well, left by Fellsmanhiker. Quote Link to comment
+Deltree Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Due to plans made by SO (without informing me) we won't be able to make it after all. Hope you all have a great time. Quote Link to comment
+Team Maddie UK Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 (edited) Well folks, the car is already packed up and we're off tomorrow To hell with waiting for next weekend !!! Hope to arrive at the campsite Friday night (if that's ok) Meanwhile we'll take in the connoseurs end of the Lake District down at Santon Bridge Se you all soon !! Martin, Lynn and Maddie PS: We just contacted the Campsite to make sure that it was OK for us to show up on Friday. The lady I spoke to was very nice but appeared not to be familiar with this event as a 'geocaching' event. They are aware of an 'orienteering' event however, which we assumed to be the same thing. Just thought I would warn you all in case you had the same problem. Edited June 4, 2005 by Team Maddie UK Quote Link to comment

Sparticus Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Going to be there Wednesday, Hopefully around lunchtime if I manage to get out of bed in the morning. Got a fair way to travel, as have others, so I might take a leisurly drive and not arrive till evening. Aparently the rings of power is best done over two days so might do the first part on wednesday or Thursday Have contacted the cache owner and they have given me some good info on the multi, so all hands to the pumps.

Sparticus Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 WOOHEY, getting excited now. Just spoken to the very nice lady at the campsite and stated I was from the 'orienteering event' (Thanks team maddie). If arriving by caravan then can you please park on the road befor entering the site as it is quite wet apparently and they would like to show you to your pitch. The lady stated that you would have to walk to the farmhouse first. Not sure about having to do any walking. Quote Link to comment

Sparticus Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 did anyone notice on the campsites website"no noise after10.30 pm" I think we maybe the only ones there. If so the only people we'll be disturbing is us. Also I've heard Mrs Philimore Clan makes popoff noises during the night. Not sure if this information is true or just rumor. Quote Link to comment

+lordelph Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Just spoke to Peter on the phone, it all sounds fantastic, I can't wait to get there now! Is anyone else going to the event planning on doing Quest for the Ring? If you are add a message to the thread to let Peter know what time you think you'll be arriving. As it's easily a two-day cache, getting a start on Friday will be a good plan to avoid disappointment! Quote Link to comment
+ANDYBUG&LADYBIRD Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Yaay-only 2 more days at work, we are really excited now!!!!!! We are going to give the quest a miss-we want to go up Scafell(weather permitting) and also bash out a load of the other caches that are up there (not that we're numbers people or anything ). Look forward to seeing you all soon, did I mention that we are really excited now?!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment

+The Cache Hoppers Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Just two Cache Hoppers attending .... Lauren and Liane. We will be setting off early from Berks on Friday morning - not sure what time we are likely to get there, it's probably a five hour drive without breaks, so sometime during the afternoon. Will there be anyone on site when we get there? If not, where will you all be!!?? Anyone who wants to email us their mobile numbers please do so and we will reciprocate. Are most people climbing Scafell on Saturday or Sunday? The Quest looks a bit much for us Oh and by the way, we don't make pop off noises or snore, so far as we know! Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Oh how fed up am I????? My Mum has just called me and has managed to book her and my dad onto Burns Farm this weekend... they have done a few caches with us, and were going to the lakes anyway... when I told her you lot would be there - she's almost beside herself with excitement now!!! If you see John and Linda (Sandiway Searchers) looking a bit lost with a shiny new Etrek in hand, adopt them!! Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 For everyone's information, House of Boo are there now and fruity and co will be there tonight. Quote Link to comment
