GPSr was spot on, but the nettles are tall and fierce age it was a bit of a battle to get to this cache, hidden beneath them. TFTC!

Found easily. Strange choice of container; not what I expected! TFTC.
Dan Q found GC8Q3X3 Final cache of series

This one was a challenge. Finding myself on a path alongside a wooden fence, I propped my bike up against the fence to search what seemed to be the obvious candidates, but no look. I returned to my bike to retrieve my handlebar-mounted GPSr to try to get a better fix and soon found myself tramping through waist-high nettles towards to GZ. Oh! There’s another path over here! That makes more sense. Found the cache pretty quickly once I’d got my silly self into the right place! TFTC!
Dan Q found GC35ZN6 AZKABAN
This checkin to GC35ZN6 AZKABAN reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Good sized cache! My GPSr pointed me into the field at first and I had to double back. Log dry, but has clearly gotten wet in the past as done pages have begun to moulder. Okay to sign still, though. TFTC.
Dan Q found GC6FEXP Octocache
This checkin to GC6FEXP Octocache reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Came near here on an evening’s cycle from Stanton Harcourt and, seeing that the path wasn’t too muddy, decided to come and explore the woods. Lots of birdsong tonight! Was glad of the hint which saved me poking in the wrong holes. TFTC.
Dan Q archived GC7Q96B Oxford’s Long-Lost Zoo
This checkin to GC7Q96B Oxford's Long-Lost Zoo reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
This has been muggled hard. I no longer live very close, so I’m removing the cache: I’ve extracted the remnants of the container from the GZ.
Shame to lose such a beautiful container, but it had a good long life and told many people the unusual story of this site, so it’s all good.
Dan Q found GC49ERR #5 Billy Wynt – Up Top
This checkin to GC49ERR #5 Billy Wynt - Up Top reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Wow, definitely had to go off the beaten track for this one. I took a route up and tightly alongside the fence, and only after getting to the GZ did I discover the easier way. Still a tough thing to find with the foliage so verdant. TFTC and thanks for the walk and the view, too!
From the top of the folly I can just make out my hotel in the distance (see photo)! Better go get some breakfast!
Dan Q found GC49ERC #4 Billy Wynt – Take a Seat
This checkin to GC49ERC #4 Billy Wynt - Take a Seat reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Found after a brief search, but not in the (pretty obvious) hint location. Looks like it had been found by muggles and just “thrown” back. Log was blank. SL, TFTC. Great view!
Dan Q couldn’t find GC49EQW #3 Billy Wynt – Feeling Peckish
This checkin to GC49EQW #3 Billy Wynt - Feeling Peckish reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Had to give up on this one. 😢
Between a great fix, a clear clue, and CO maintenance only last week I figured this was a sure thing. But somehow it wasn’t to be, no
matter how many nettle stings I endured in the hunt.
Dan Q found GC49EQA #2 Billy Wynt – Little Home
This checkin to GC49EQA #2 Billy Wynt - Little Home reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
A brief shower gave me cause for concern – I didn’t come dressed for weather – but I pressed on and was rewarded with this cool hide. TFTC.
Dan Q found GC49AEB #1 Billy Wynt – Cattle Grid
This checkin to GC49AEB #1 Billy Wynt - Cattle Grid reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Woke earlier than my friends who’d been to a wedding last night, and used that as an excuse for a quick walk up the hill. Easy find: second place I looked! TFTC. Greetings from Oxfordshire!
Dan Q found GC9822Z Church Micro 13932…Oxford – Baptist
This checkin to GC9822Z Church Micro 13932...Oxford - Baptist reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Having nabbed one of the coveted parking spaces to run an errand in Summertown, I nipped over here to find this cache, too. Coordinates were spot on but I couldn’t see the cache, so I took the advice of a previous log and plunged my hand into what I thought was a likely hiding place and came out with the cache in hand. TFTC.
Dan Q found GC8QB2K INWT #11: Myddelton Lodge
This checkin to GC8QB2K INWT #11: Myddelton Lodge reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
This cache is closest to where we’re staying, and was the third (and final, because our littlest party member had had enough for now) of our expedition. Nice container and a lovely spot. TFTC.
Dan Q found GC8QB2N INWT #12: Cleverest Crow?
This checkin to GC8QB2N INWT #12: Cleverest Crow? reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Continuing our reverse-order explore of some of these caches closest to our accommodation for the week. Little 5-year-old John found this one and came proudly out from its hiding place with it in hand. TFTC.
Logbook very wet, hard to sign.
Dan Q found GC8QB3G INWT #13: Scalewra Settlement
This checkin to GC8QB3G INWT #13: Scalewra Settlement reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Some fellow volunteers from a nonprofit I help run and I are staying at nearby Myddelton Lodge and came out to find a couple of local caches on our lunch break. This was the first, and my new-to-geocaching colleague Paul was first to put his hands on the cache. Nice one. TFTC.
Log very wet, almost impossible to sign.
