Battery was starting to get low on my phone, which I was using as my GPS and which I’d forgotten to properly charge before I left the office this afternoon, so I didn’t hunt for long… but I wonder if it might be missing, because that’s a few of us now that haven’t been able to spot it…

A narrowboater had moored nearby and struck up a conversation with me as I parked my bike and sat on the bench near this cache. It’s a shame he was so friendly, because it gave me no opportunity to surreptitiously reach for the cache!

Took a diversion on my way home from work to try to get this and some of the Route Canal series. Unfortunately I failed at this, my first cache of the day, when I found that the location of the cache has somewhat turned into a building site – a bustle of workmen coming and going and where I THINK the cache is made inaccessible by a pile of construction materials. Shall try again another time.

It’s been over a year since I’ve done a “serious” caching expedition, and the clue threw me for a while as I tried to dredge up an old memory of what it meant. Once I’d done that, it was easy… although I did have a moment of panic when I dropped the lid of the cache and (between batches of passing joggers) hunted for it on the floor, only to later discover that it had landed on my bike pannier rack.

A quick and easy find as I cycled home to Kidlington up the Oxford canal.
Battery was getting really low now, so I decided that if I was only going to be able to manage one more cache between here and home, it ought to be a good one. GC3VJAT (“Duke’s Cut”) looked exciting, so I popped this cache back in its spot and sped off to the North.

Had to stretch to reach it! Nice cache.
Saw a rabbit skull while hunting in the wrong place.

Took my co-workers lizrosemccarthy and kateevery out on their first ever geocaching expedition, and this was their first ever find: what a great first-cache for anybody. Scrawled in the log, along with other vandalism which I’ll leave the others to describe. TFTC!

Found with fleeblewidget on the way to a nice beer with half of reaperfish. We’d have found it faster if we hadn’t met reaperfish, though, because he found this cache back in 2009 and was convinced that my GPSr was wrong when it pointed me pretty much exactly to where the cache was. Eventually, fleeblewidget and I (and the satellites) turned out to be right, of course. TFTC!

Found with fleeblewidget while visiting my old friend (half of reaperfish), a local to this cache, for an evening of food and beer. A nice easy find, once we’d removed some of the wildlife that was clinging to the side of the cache! Didn’t have a pen with us, so I stuck a pair of googly-eyes onto the log: see photo of me holding the log with fresh eyes attached!

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. A very easy find during our little journey along the loch. fleeblewidget was getting tired at this point, and we’d both decided that we needed some lunch, so we resolved to find just one more cache after this one and then go and find ourselves some food in Kenmore.

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. A great little cache to end our adventure on, and go and find some lunch. Thanks for the series of caches (even those which, like this one, were a little damp!).

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. Gosh, it’s been a busy day for caching.

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. Nice hide, and a fabulous spot that really does look like it could be a nest for faeries or pixies.
This checkin to GLCCC07V Melting Mouth ~ Cupcake reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. fleeblewidget immediately saw the “big cupcake” and scrambled to it. Honestly: I couldn’t see the “cupcake” at all, even after she explained it to me. Doesn’t look like any cupcake I’ve ever seen!

Found with fleeblewidget while exploring along the lochside (and grabbing a few caches as we went), during a holiday to celebrate our anniversary. We were getting hungry by this point, and the descriptions of the snacks eaten by the people laying these caches of the things that they’d eaten on the way over was starting to get to us! fleeblewidget ate an apple as we went along, and we promised to break for some biscuits at a later cache-stop.
