Current Goal

March 2010: Heading for S.E.Wales, please...

Nuts the Squirrel is in a TB race with "Berries the Bear" belonging to cacher Munkeh. Starting from A Stationary cache, in March 2007, he had to beat Berries to any one of the most northerly caches (done), then to one in the far south west (done), then back to any of the Blorenges' caches in S.E. Wales. An epic adventure for a small squirrel!

**Update 8th April 2008 He lives! He lives! Fortunately Nuts the Bear was able to escape the muggles and after an arduous cross-country yomp, working his way south-west, he ended up at the port of Newlyn. Passing the Co-op windows, he caught a glimpse of his reflection - he was his old self once more! The radioactivity in the granite outcrop where Trinket cache had been hidden had strangely rejuvenated Nuts. Once more he was able to be true to his squirrel side and he happily wandered the narrow streets of the small fishing port. Happily, as Fate would have it, he was recognised by Mrs Blorenge who just happened to be in the area for a few days R&R. She swept Nuts up into her caching bag and dropped him into a Multi-cache overlooking Mount's Bay. SO! Let the race continue!
20th May 2008 What are you doing in Germany? Do they have better nuts over there? Come back soon - You were winning the Race!
22nd May 2009 - OK, Nuts, enough is enough! I've had enough of you messing around in Germany - Get on the next car/ferry/plane back to England! You've got a Race to complete... Sheeeeesh! never trust a squirrel...
27th February 2010: At last! The prodigal squirrel returns to his homeland after wandering around Europe for ages. OK, Nuts, now get moving - Go west, young squirrel!

21 December 2010: Nuts? What're you doin', lad? West is where you need to be. Rumour has it you're up a mountain somewhere...

Nuts is feeling much better tonight, in fact, he says he wants to find a really naughty Puzzle cache that never gets visited to go spend some time 😛

What?! "Nuts reckoned he could take Berries"! My Nuts is a sweet, innocent, gentle little squirrel who would never do harm to some boistrous, over-stuffed-with-chocolate Bear! Go North, young Nuts! Go North!

Well see, Nuts reckoned he could take Berries, but looking at his bruised body this morning, it's very obvious which TB is going to win this race. Having been also attacked by a pseudo-chinese person and trying to get rescued by some fair maidens, he was cleverly disguised as a fellow geocacher before being taken to his current hidey-hole. This is very fortunate because at one stage, Nuts looked like taking the "slow boat" to a faraway land.

Negotiations are still in place over what do do next. Obviously, Berries is currently where we don't want him and I think the feeling is mutual about Nuts 😉

Keep your eyes posted for updates 😁

Cycled down on my bike this evening to rescue Nuts The Squirrel (yes my money is on Nuts!). I managed to dodge the stinging nettles even though I was wearing shorts [:)). Will get some piccies of him in the morning with The Cache Hoppers and then decide what dastardly deeds can be performed to help him further along the route to Co Durham. We're gonna have you Berries! We're gonna win!! Ohh yeah ... bring it on!!!! 😁

Following protests that Hexagons was too quiet a cache for a Squirrel in a hurry, I have agreed to move him to somewhere more active!
