Found with the Saga Louts.
After an epic geocaching day yesterday we decided to take it easy and have a wander around Glasgow including a few favourite pubs - decided to make a visit to this challenge cache while we were there. Easy find thanks to the spoiler.

Thought I would be in with a fair chance and a quick look through GSAK proved this to be the case. Decided to make things harder by only listing caches with the exact film name. Here is my list - all pass the IMDB test and it includes some great films (...and Cats & Dogs.)

GC2X8JX The Cruel Sea 30.05.2011
GC320H4 Whisky Galore! 11.08.2011
GC322QK The Good, The Bad and the Ugly 12.08.2011
GC3210H Ice Cold In Alex 11.08.2011
GC322XP The Hunt For Red October 12.08.2011
GC4CXVX A Fish Called Wanda 28.07.2013
GC2VFD7 Raiders Of The Lost Ark 28.07.2013
GC2N46E Local Hero 22.03.2014
GC2VWX7 Cats & Dogs 09.05.2011
GCYW5X On The Buses 14.10.2006

Enjoyed finding the physical cache as well because it dragged us to a part of town we had not yet ventured into. TFTC.

A nice walk around Glasgow with Random precision
As he says " after an epic geocaching day yesterday" ....
& yes love the Pubs and Especially the one called "Waxy O'Connors @ 44 W George St" [^][^]..

Took a little bit too much time to notice that there were actually quite a many challenges in Glasgow for which I have surprisingly enough already completed the requirements Luckily enough had just enough time to locate one of those before leaving the town.

The hint made it easy to find the nano - unfortunately the log-book was completely full, so as an emergency measure had to add a small "appendix" with my log to the already quite full container. There is some space for 2-3 additional names in the new sheet, but it is quite hard to fit it in the box - so a completely new log sheet would be more than welcome here.

My list : ok .. didn't remember the required number of movies correctly , so listed 15- but hope it doesn't disqualify me - and btw. all those caches are Finnish ones , but all the movies listed are very non-Finnish

My collection:
GC508D5 / Chemistry at the Cemetery / The Cemetery / 22.03.2014

I qualified for this some time ago but on my last visit to Glasgow, it didn't feel appropriate for me to come here, given recent events.

En route elsewhere today, I thought I'd nip off the M8 to collect this, but having nearly run over a lady at double red lights under the motorway and possibly fallen foul of a buses & taxis only turn (arghhhhh@the one-way system!), I stopped, paid 60p min parking for the 12 minutes it allowed me to walk 210 yards, find the cache and walk back to the car. It took 11 at a stroll, and I'm now 3 over due to typing this, but heck, this is the least of the traffic infringements I may have made here!

And the Oscar goes to...

Exeunt stage left!

Found on 19 Oct 2013
Managed to jump out the car and grab this one, before a traffic warden arrived!

Finally got round to making up a list:

GC322XP The Hunt for Red October 01/06/2013
GC2X8JE The Lion King 01/06/2013
GC322X9 Shallow Grave 01/06/2013

TFTC. Final one in the city that I qualify for ticked off.

Found on 29/11/13. Was in town for a drink in a nearby pub, thankfully not the Clutha, to celebrate a colleagues 50th. A quick find in the dark. Was here not long before the copter crash. A very Sad day.

Found today on a rainy detour home from work. I liked that it was not an obvious hide. A few muggles around so walked past a few times casting my eye on the GZ site, at first I thought it had disappeared however a closer inspection revealed a lovely little hiding spot...nice!

This is the link for my challenge bookmark however if this doesn't work then I have attached a screenshot of the list too. http://www.geocaching.com/bookmarks/view.aspx?guid=6825fd39-9002-474f-80d5-4a166f02d193
