  • Found GCANV3H #07 Longworth Loop

    Found GCANV3D #06 Longworth Loop

    My geosense tingled and I found this cache straightaway, even while the geohound excitedly ran out into the open field ahead and exhorted me to follow. SL, TFTC!

  • Found GCANV37 #05 Longworth Loop

    After initially following what I mistook for a geotrail but which turned out to be on entirely the wrong side of the path, I soon saw my mistake, crossed over, and had the cache in hand. TFTC.

    Found GCANV2R #03 Longworth Loop

    Searched high and low around the obvious hiding place before sitting down to have a think and immediately spotting another even better hiding place she the cache in pain sight: d'oh! The geopup didn't want to come all the all the way to it so she waited at the first obvious hiding spot.
    Great to see a good sized cache for the environment and in such good condition. FP awarded. Took 4x4 travel bug. TFTC!

    Briefly overshot this one and then failed to get a good GPS fix, but the hint set us right. Gorgeous sun this morning on the poppies peeking up over the corn.

    Found GCANV0A #01 Longworth Loop

    A morning walk for the geohound and I kicked off at this cache, near which we'd parked the car. Long been meaning to explore this loop: let's see how far we get before the pooch's tiny legs give her cause to protest! SL as DQ to save space at this QEF. TFTC!

  • Performed maintenance on GC9GTV3 Drive Slowly; Fox Crossing

    Performed a quick checkup on this much-loved cache before the summertime cachers come out in earnest. All looks healthy here!

    Found GC1QR0V Church Micro 605 Almondsbury

    Stopped at the pub nearby for an incredibly late lunch and to recharge the electric car on my journey from Pembrokeshire to Oxfordshire, because I'd much rather get off the motorway and find somewhere nice to sit while the electrons do their thing. Spotted this nearby cache in the yard of this beautiful church, which made for a lovely walk as the well-tended flowerbeds were wonderfully fragrant. Followed a geotrail to find the cache. Amazing, loved finding this so much. SL, TNLN, TFTC, FP awarded.

The geopup and I took a walk from the Parrog to Newport Sands and back, this morning, and I'm glad we opted to find geocaches on the way back, rather than the way out, because it made โ€ฆ

    Found GC5JRP3 T'drath #3

    This checkin to GC5JRP3 T'drath #3 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I tried to find this cache back in 2016 without success. I'm confident I'd have looked in the place it's now hidden - which was today basically the first place I looked! - so maybe fast previous visit โ€ฆ

After cycling into Witney on an errand, put a slight diversion in my return route to find this cache.

    My sneaky hunt was interrupted when the fire alarm went off in a nearby building and its occupants spilled out into the street! Maybe another time.

    Found GC2MTTV Power to the People
