Well the day was going so well, Baby bear loved his ride on the train and we have found 4 caches en route, but this is where the wheels fell off ! Hiding spot seems to be a well known hidey hole to local young muggles as full of sticks and stones. A skermish further up the tree revealed more evidence of muggle activity, with branches and more stick and stones stored in the tree. So me thinks the cache is no more ...

Great hide to be found on a sunny Saturday. Had fun figuring out the declination for true north and actually learned quite a bit from the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) website. No muggles about which was a surprise. Cheers!

Two curious twin boys found lounging lenny and will send him north to a warm and sunny beach. We will post a clue when he gets there.

Dashed back to the likely spot and there it was Smile the bag has ripped due to the pencil, so I put the swaps in the container and wrapped the log up in the bag.

Nice hiding spot. Had to wait for a smoking muggle to leave before we could replace the cache. I didn't like the way he threw his but (butt?) away so noncholantly - with the hot dry summer it would be a fire risk.

I really arrived at the wrong time (11.30am) for this cache. There were Mums + a few Dads all arriving to collect their little mugglets from the nearby kindy/playschool. I had to wait for a break in the foot traffic before I could grab and replace the cache.. TNLN. Thanks for the cache Aslan*.

Another night of rubbish on TV (Well after House that is) and another new cache popping up late at night and how could I resist. Nice to get another FTF (My 2nd) and I took the Troll as I like trolls (The big mean ones rather than the cuddly toys). Easy find in the dark. TFTC
