A quick couple of caches in Birmingham city centre

Posted in General, tagged on July 29, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

Whilst caching yesterday, the toe on my right walking boot came away from the sole of the boot so I knew it was time to invest in a new pair of boots. The right boot has been intermittently leaking for a few weeks now so I had an idea something was not quite right. The [...]

We’ve been really busy with other things the last few weeks so not had time to write our normal blog posts. I’ll try and get things up to date here in one go… 23 June 2010 – Birmingham City Centre I was in Birmingham city centre for the launch of the iPhone 4 so decided [...]

Barnacle Bimble, Fisherman’s Trail and Bloom Trail series, followed by other caches in the Coventry / Birmingham corridor

Posted in General, tagged , on May 24, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

On Sunday Isaac was free and the weather was forecast to be even hotter than it was yesterday. Sounds like a perfect excuse to go caching! We’d had a look for likely destinations and the Barnacle Bimble series just north of Coventry appealed as I’d enjoyed the same cache owner’s other series (Burgo and Beans) [...]

An unplanned but unashamed cache run through north Birmingham

Isaac was at school on Saturday morning so after I dropped him off I planned to make a start on all the new caches that had come out recently in Sandwell Valley Country Park near to J1 of the M5. After I’d done there, I planned on heading east towards Perry Barr to another park [...]

South Birmingham caching, followed by the IQ series

Posted in General, tagged , , , on March 7, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

Isaac did not have to go to school this Saturday so we planned a trip out caching instead. Our idea was to start with some caches near Earlswood, south of Birmingham that were set for a recent event. We then planned a walk round some lovely looking woodland before heading back up the M5 to [...]

Black Country caching and a new YOSM virtual cache

Posted in General, tagged , , , , on February 28, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

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 [...]

Winter caching near Coventry and then Hockley Heath

Posted in General, tagged , , on January 3, 2010 | 3 Comments »

After all the over-indulgences of the Christmas period, myself and Isaac were keen to get out on a good walk to not only get some fresh air, but work off some of the above excesses. A new series just to the west of Coventry looked to be getting good logs and looked a nice walk [...]

Black Country Urban Caching

Posted in General, tagged , , on December 14, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

We’d planned a main day of caching on Sunday this weekend, so I thought I’d head off towards Birmingham for a few easier caches after dropping Isaac off at school on Saturday morning. There was a ring of caches around the canals of Oldbury which looked like fun and had the added bonus of being [...]

Caching plans for the weekend

We’re out for the evening tonight and then Isaac is at school for the last time this year tomorrow morning, so I’m looking for an easy day tomorrow and then a more involved caching day on Sunday. Looking at the maps, I think I might head for the circle of canal caches by Lee Ford [...]

Caching my way into Birmingham

Posted in General, tagged , on December 7, 2009 | 2 Comments »

Every year we meet up with the cousins-in-law just before Christmas to see a show and then go out for a meal afterwards. We were not due at the Symphony Hall until 2pm on Saturday so I decided to head off early and find some caches beforehand. We’ve done all but a couple of multi’s [...]
