On Saturday Isaac was back at school so I planned to grab a few caches towards Wolverhampton after I’d dropped him off at school and headed down the motorway. Little did I know it would develop into a full day’s caching and that I’d meet 3 lots of other cacher’s while I was out! The [...]

A quick FTF near to home with the Shropshire Seekers
Posted in General, tagged Aqualate, FTF on February 26, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
A new cache had come out last night not too far from home but I’d not had chance to dash out to find it. The next morning I took a call from Allun of the Shropshire Seekers who was at GZ and could not find the cache. GZ is a tree in the middle of [...]
Manchester City Centre caching

Yesterday we got very close to Manchester City Centre whilst out caching and I mentioned to Isaac that we must go for a wander round sometime soon as I’ve not been for ages. He suggested as Sunday was his last day of the school holidays, we should get the train into Manchester to do some [...]
Boggart Hole Clough and North East Manchester caching

On Saturday myself and Isaac planned a trip to North East Manchester. We decided to start off with the cache series around Boggart Hole Clough, move on to the various stand alone caches in the area before heading off to do the Rochdale Canal series and then finally the SBT series by the last junction [...]

On Thursday I had to pop into Stafford to pay some cheques in at the bank and decided to stop to look for a new cache that had come out near Aqualate Mere just outside Newport during the week on the way home. The walk to the cache is quite a long one (0.88 miles [...]
A quick new cache near home

On Sunday morning I was checking my emails and noted a new cache had come out very close to home. Being Valentines Day, I was otherwise occupied for a while so pretty much gave up on the chance of a FTF. Just before dinnertime I had a spare hour or so, so decided to pop [...]

Saturday was the first day of the school holidays so Isaac was free to come caching . We’d planned a trip to clear up the new caches in Parkhall Country Park to the SE of Stoke, just on the edge of the Staffordshire Moorlands. After we’d done there, we planned a circular walk near Weston [...]

We were supposed to be staying overnight with friends in Yorkshire last night but one of our dogs had had an operation at the vets on Friday and was having a big problem recovering from the anaesthetic (he’s a 17 year old Jack Russell, but with the constitution of a tank normally). We had to [...]
Broseley Jitties and a quick Shropshire Way cache

I did not have much time for caching on Saturday but after dropping Isaac off at school I could not resist grabbing a quick 5 closest to home not founds, all in the lovely Ironbridge area just south of Telford. The first four caches were all set on Jitties in Broseley. I bet you are [...]
Lapley Loop Series

After we’d done the new cache series around Codsall last Saturday a new series of 32 caches came out around Lapley, not far from Isaac’s Grandparents house. We were all cached out for the day so decided to leave them until later in the week. I’m glad we did as a couple of days later [...]
