Visited with pacifist_049 and first-timer Andrewsean85 on 2nd Jan, but only remembered to get around to logging it twenty days later! A nice little find made a little too-easy by bumping into another group of cachers who were there just before us (no log from them, though, whoever they were…) TFTC.

Fantastic cache! pacifist049 and I took a look this morning as we happened to be in Preston. A match was due to start this afternoon so we wanted to make sure we were done before then! It took us quite a bit of puzzling to work out what we needed to do, and where, and a few failures in the co-ordinate calculation initially suggested that we were looking for a cache about 8 kilometres away!

Eventually though, we prevailed: once we knew where we were headed it was easy – and the clue makes perfect sense once you’re in the right area! Thanks again for an amazing cache; my first of 2011!

Paced up and down the street quite a few times before we found this beautifully-hidden cache. Then had to stand around looking like lost tourists while we waited for the area to clear so we could grab it without attracting suspicion!

TFTC: my first in a long while!

Found it immediately by thinking “yeah, that’s where I’d put the cache” and the co-ordinates were spot on. But I still had to be quite sneaky while my co-cacher provided cover in order to get this one.

Log needs archiving. Somebody’s added an extra roll of paper stuffed into the tiny cannister but it’s challenging to get both rolls back in afterwards: the old one should be removed and filed away somewhere.

Great cache!

Co-ordinates seem to point to the wrong side of the street (based on the clue), but even armed with the clue and the logs of those people who eventually found it on their second or third attempt, we couldn’t get this one despite an extended search. Based on the frequency of DNFs, I’d suggest that 1.5 isn’t a high enough difficulty for this evidently-well-hidden cache!

A few pints in pacifist049 and I, and stumbling around in the dark, we were still able to find this little cache on the way back from the pub. Nice hide! TFTC

Glad to hear you found it, cardi88, and that it’s still there (after getting a series of DNFs, I was worried it might have been plundered!). Maybe I should step the difficulty up by a half-star.

I got a call from reaperfish this evening, who had come out looking for this cache but had some problems finding it. We worked together: me from my desk with maps, photos, and the cache description, and him in the field (literally) to find this cache, and he insisted that he be allowed to write my username in the log, too. So here I am. Not sure I deserve the credit for this, but TFTC: I hope to see it “in person” someday (after all, I now know the area like the back of reaperfish’s hand)!

Have a few travel bugs I’ll be bringing along…

I was just on an Easter Egg hunt up in the woods, when pacifist_049 (who was hiding my egg) gave me the clue that my egg was hidden “near Barking Up The Wrong Tree”, so obviously the best way to find my hidden egg ws to pull out my GPSr and first find this wonderful, devious little cache. TFTC.

Came up here for a walk and, while on the way, thought I’d check if the cache (which I failed to find after it’s recent muggling) had been replaced. It had! I checked in the “obvious place”, which I’m guessing is where it used to live, and then a brief search later, found it. TFTC.

I, too, had thought on ocassion about putting a cache here, but changed my mind after seeing what the weather can be like. Took a look today, no luck. Sbhaq n zntarg, ohg ab pnpur.

Found with restlessboy and fleeblewidget after an extended search: not in the most obvious place! Met thebuttonmushroom and hunted with her, after which she gave us a hint on “Cardiff’s Bouncy Bridge, which we’d taken a quick look for and failed to find earlier in the day.” Nice container! TFTC.
