Cache Logs

October 26 by stanolli (232 found) Found just before dusk at the start of an evening drive to Lichfield to meet an engineer visiting from Kuwait. I tried this one on my way back from the same place a few weeks ago, but got a clue wrong (maybe the word 'by' should replace the word 'in'). I did realise there was an error last time as the hint didn't quite match up and I did actually start a quick search in the right area, but ran out of light. I nearly did again because there are a number of objects fitting the hint, but found it just in time and managed to sign the log using a torch. I was very careful around the wall, but I do worry a little that damage might be done especially if the clues are not answered correctly and a co-ordinates check would be nice. Took Red Jeep TB TFTC [view this log]

September 18 by bristolkit (21 found) A nice ramble after work. TFTC [view this log]

August 16 by I! (103 found) Dropped off "Second River (MI)" Red Jeep TB in lieu of VW TB1QWRX which appears to have gone missing. [view this log]

July 1 by I! (103 found) My first one ever, found on a scorching hot day! A few of the clues were ambiguous (C, with two possible answers, has a particularly big effect on the final coordinates), but Google Maps made the likely location obvious enough. Re Feb 20 posting: no disruption of stone walls was required. All seems well with the cache. TNLN. [view this log]

April 19 by SidAndBob (1219 found) I wasn't going to look for this one, but as we were on Leckhampton Hill today I had a quick go over breakfast. Will also wanted to liberate the VW camper van TB, as he loves them. Soccer research isn't my thing, so I got the crutial bits and left it at that. The final location matched everything in other logs and the hint, but we didn't find the cache. It was a beautiful afternoon and as we had no more caches planned today we spent a fair while at the cache site. We nearly got run over by some little kid riding a tiny motorcyle round in circles over the public footpath despite the sign prohibiting motor vehicles. Thanks anyway, Pete, Will and Bob.
