Geocache Description:

Cache is a smallish tube, tweezers and scribbler required


The Song: Won ABBA the eurovision song contest in 1974 and went to no.1 in April 1974 and was the first of many no.1 hits they would go on to have. Full details of this song can be easily found online.

 

The Group: I am 56 years of age while i type this write up and am certainly not afraid to admit that ive been an ABBA fan since watching them win the Eurovision song contest in Brighton back in April 1974. I have a vast collection of ABBA records including some before they became a group and becoming famous. They have to be one of the worlds most adored groups having sell out concerts almost everywhere and i myself have been very fortunate to see them live in Glasgow in the late 70s. I could write all day about this amazing group but im sure your more interested in the cache so ill finish at that and THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC...loved your music then, love it more and more each time i hear it.

 

The caches: Most are along  nice country roads, and are ALL park n grabs, mainly because these are my favourites and are easily maintained, there is no nanos and most are large and crammed packed with swaps, tho i would urge you to take something even if you have nothing to swap, i have plenty of stuff to refill.I tried to ensure there was some sort of parking close by and i think ive managed to do that in all cases.

 

Your Help: you might need tweezers and a scribbler at some, and can i ask that you check all the lids are tightly closed and that elastic bands / bags / etc are all as you would expect them to be, lids in particular can look closed but just a little push and they go down that wee bit more, thank you. I also enjoy reading your logs guys, so a little more than TFTC please, tell me what you thought of the cache and how they can be improved, is the cache in good condition?..needs a new log? damp? all good? needing more swaps?..all these are good feedback and help to keep my caches good. So it just leaves me to say, GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, AND HAPPY CACHING !!!

 

ABBA was a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972, comprising Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad
