    This checkin to GC6GTY1 The Duck Pond reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. GPSr was spot on, but the nettles are tall and fierce age it was a bit of a battle to get to this cache, hidden beneath them. TFTC!

    This checkin to GC8Q3X3 Final cache of series reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. This one was a challenge. Finding myself on a path alongside a wooden fence, I propped my bike up against the fence to search what seemed to be the obvious candidates, but no look. I returned โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC35ZN6 AZKABAN reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Good sized cache! My GPSr pointed me into the field at first and I had to double back. Log dry, but has clearly gotten wet in the past as done pages have begun to moulder. Okay to sign still, โ€ฆ

    Found GC6FEXP Octocache

    This checkin to GC6FEXP Octocache reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Came near here on an evening's cycle from Stanton Harcourt and, seeing that the path wasn't too muddy, decided to come and explore the woods. Lots of birdsong tonight! Was glad of the hint which saved me poking in โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC7Q96B Oxford's Long-Lost Zoo reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. This has been muggled hard. I no longer live very close, so I'm removing the cache: I've extracted the remnants of the container from the GZ.

    This checkin to GC49ERR #5 Billy Wynt - Up Top reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Wow, definitely had to go off the beaten track for this one. I took a route up and tightly alongside the fence, and only after getting to the GZ did I discover the easier โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC49ERC #4 Billy Wynt - Take a Seat reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found after a brief search, but not in the (pretty obvious) hint location. Looks like it had been found by muggles and just "thrown" back. Log was blank. SL, TFTC. Great view!

    This checkin to GC49AEB #1 Billy Wynt - Cattle Grid reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Woke earlier than my friends who'd been to a wedding last night, and used that as an excuse for a quick walk up the hill. Easy find: second place I looked! TFTC. Greetings from โ€ฆ
