Don’t know what previous DNFs are on about, this was an easy find in the second place I looked. Log too wet to write on, so I’ve taken one of the (many) spare logbook pages and made it into the shape of a letter D for Dan (pictured), then returned it to the cache, to show that I was here! Lovely spot. TFTC.

A late journey home and a slight diversion brought me up the wonderful Thames Path through Binsey and up to here to find this brilliant cache. It took into the final 150m from the GZ that I realised that really: a bike was NOT the right mode of transportation for this one (see if you can spot my route in the attached photo)! Still I pressed on and got to within 50m of the GZ before having to leave my vehicle behind and brave the nettles, fence, and boggy ground.
Cache in bad condition: missing log and writing implement, mild damage to container. If it’s true that it’s been abandoned I’d be happy to adopt it to keep this great location and cache alive! I’m moderately local (my commute isn’t far away and I’m sometimes caught drinking at the Trout) and I have the perfect replacement container just sitting in my shed ready to go, so I’ll contact the CO.
TFTC. FP awarded. I’m so bored of yet-another-magnetic-nano or city-centre-puzzle that it was genuinely a treat to see a cache that ticks all the boxes of things I love best about the sport.

A quick and easy find on a diversion from my morning cycle commute. A man parked in a van nearby made me think I’d need to use my stealth skills, but he turned out to be asleep. Not sure how this cache will stand up against the winter weather, but for now this is a great spot and I was glad of the excuse to visit. TFTC!

Took an unusual route to work this morning and as it put me in the vicinity of this cache I decided it was high time I braved the brambles and the risk of damp feet (it’s a bit boggy here right now!) to find this cache. TNLN, TFTC!

Third time lucky! After striking out twice I spent some time thinking about possible hiding places before returning for this third, successful, visit. TFTC!

Fantastic idea. My little geotribe and I are just down the road and I think we’re free, so I’ll hope to see you there.

Over the course of two visits I’ve removed all of the remnants (or what I could find of them) of the previous cache container and replaced it with a new one.

A quick and easy find on my way back to the city centre after a lunch date at the Isis Farmhouse to the South. Great container that fits wonderfully in its hiding space! TFTC.

Stemonitis doesn’t seem to have logged in for over three years, and it’s needed maintenance for its super-soggy log for about as long). I’ve sent a message to them offering to adopt this cache (it’s in a convenient place for me to maintain), but if I don’t get a response I’ll speak to an admin and see if they can transfer it to me (or else archive it as abandoned and I’ll lay an identical replacement in its place).
Edit: Stemonitis approves in principle. Just waiting for the adoption to go through.

I can’t log a “find” here because I set up the cache, but I wanted to show willing! So here I am, standing in the beginnings of what looks to be a serious rainstorm, capturing a screenshot with my phone. Gulp; should’a brought my coat!

Quick stop on a diversion from my cycle ride from the city centre to Sandford. Funny: years of caching and I hadn’t seen a container like this until I see two of them in one week. TFTC.
