Geocache Description:


Geocachers meeting at The Ffynnon Wen, Thornhill Road, Cardiff on Sunday, 28th January 2007. This is an informal get-together for local cachers although anyone from further afield will be made more than welcome.
For those that don’t know it, Thornhill Road is the main road from Cardiff to Caerphilly and the pub is almost directly opposite the Crematorium (not that we advocate combining visits to both venues). There is a large car park.

The event will start at 5.00 p.m. and go on as long as anyone wants it to or to closing time, whichever arrives first. The time has also been arranged to allow for some local caching for those wishing to do so while there is still daylight.

Apart from a segregated area at the rear of the pub, nothing else is arranged. The pub does meals, so people can make individual choices about whether to eat while they are there. On the menu there are Starters at about £3, Main Courses £7-£11 and distinctly unhealthy puddings at around £3. There are vegetarian options for all courses.

However, if some are eating and some not, it could be disruptive to the main purpose of the evening, so we would suggest that the first hour or so is allocated solely to socialising and that any who want to eat plan this for 6.00 p.m. onwards. Children are welcome.
To give The Ffynnon Wen an idea of numbers for food, it would help if you indicate an intention to eat, when posting notes to indicate attendance.

The evening will be an opportunity to help Travel Bugs on their way, especially if anyone is off to an exotic destination in the near future. If you intend to bring a TB or two, include details of the Bug and its objective in your note. If you can help a bug on the way to its objective note this also. If you do pass on a TB on the evening, make sure that you keep a note of its number and who you pass it to, so that logs can be kept up to date and the TB’s owner knows where it is.

The opportunity will also be taken to update details of the Mayday bank holiday 07 Event at Dare Country Park,Aberdare (to be held Saturday, 5 May 2007), pick up fresh ideas and to try to sort out a few tasks for “volunteers”.

We look forward to meeting as many of you as possible on Sunday, 28th January. So that we don’t spend all evening on introductions, it might help if everyone wears a name badge giving their first name and geocaching nickname.

We are pleased to say this venue is Disabled friendly.

We wish to thank Write and Mane for their considerable help in booking this venue and for help offered at the venue on the day.
