This one, labelled 4 (there’s definitely been a switcheroo somewhere here) was an easier find than I expected: my hunch was spot on! To think that I only lived a few streets over a couple of years back and never discovered this footpath! TFTC.

It’s still there, folks! Glad I didn’t look at the logs before I started searching or I might have given up prematurely! My ‘cacher-sense was tingling as I approached the GZ: there is one really obvious hiding spot! After an unsuccessful search, though, I figured I must be wrong and deciphered the hint, which strongly suggested that the “obvious place” really WAS where I should be looking. I tried again, and sure enough, it’s right where it ought to be: you just need to keep looking for a while! Easy reach for any adult – don’t give up!
Excellent container in an excellent spot – FP awarded. Now off back to the Vic for a well-earned pint!

Loved Marston Mystery 1 so much I decided to come back and bag a couple more on my way to a gathering of magicians at the Victoria Arms tonight. Hunted among the nettles at the wrong side of the path for a bit (and among some particularly fragrant wild mint which I never found but could certainly smell!) but the hint set me straight. TFTC.

Oh yeah: noticed that the lid for this cache identifies it as Marston Mystery 6! Did they get switched around at some point, perhaps?

Found while cycling back from scouting out a potential future geocache hide. Log slightly damp: not problematic yet, but have added a couple of sachets of dessicant gel to try to reduce/prevent damage. Nice spot, TFTC!

I was spending the day at Samsung HQ, just around the corner, on a business trip, and excused myself at lunchtime for a quick jog into the woods to find this cache. And I was glad I did: beautiful woodland and exactly the kind of cache I don’t see enough of: good hiding place, decent-sized container, and a logbook full of stories and love. TFTC; FP awarded.

While staying at a nearby hotel for a corporate event, took a few teammates out on their first ever geocaching expedition to this curious little park, this morning. Easy find; right where we expected it, and a fun little container. TFTC.

After coming up to Kirtlington Quarry on a post-work expedition this evening, dropped by this cache on my way back. Lovely spot; TFTC.

Took a while to squeeze my arm around to the hiding place, and got pickled on the way, but worth it in the end. Dropped off a travel big that’s come a long way! TFTC!

My original plan had been to come up here at the weekend to complete my 7 Souvenirs Of August, but after the sun made an unexpected reappearance this afternoon (I assumed we weren’t going to see it again until Spring!) I left my office in Oxford at bang-on 5pm and started cycling up the canal. Couldn’t have picked a nicer evening: bright but cool; quiet and tranquil.
Arrived at the old quarry at about a quarter past six and began to explore. What a wonderful old site, and with such a rich history of both industry and science: thanks for sharing!
Photo attached; FP awarded. Shall send an email when I’m back home and have pulled the requisite data off my GPSr.

So close… but a chap had parked his boat RIGHT NEXT TO THE CACHE and was giving me suspicious looks. Some other time, perhaps. :-(

Took a lovely walk out here with my niece, this morning. Tried to use the counting of the scrolls as an educational exercise, but she was far more-interested in looking at all of the flowers on the graves. Had to reverse get pushchair down one path to avoid her getting nettled! Found the cache with a little help from the hint! TFTC.

Cancel that! Couldn’t see it for looking. Ate my sandwiches and double-checked my calculations, then went back to the hiding place… and saw it right away! TFTC!

No, lucymcneil99, you don’t necessarily need climbing equipment. A boat would suffice, instead. Or just a lot of guts and good climbing skills. How close did you get?
