Nice day to take a TB out for a view of Mosgiel? Checked the obvious spot, then the other obvious spots, then the other possibles. Checked description, small, not micro. Followed the GPS back, checked all spots again. Checked hint, yes, obvious spot...? And was found just a few days ago, too. Well, all the glory of the first DNF!

When the 31 days of caching came out I only had 6 caches to find within 50kms of home and it wasn't possible. But with the proliferation of caches this month I'll instead attempt 31 caches in a day. 19 of 31. Tftc
