After watching master eleven aka geoninja play his first game on Kilsyth a show court and score the only three pointer, we decided to collect a cache to celebrate the awesome game.

So The Welder, Ge0Bug and two welder minis and I decided to collect a quick one nearby. After a wink wink, nudge judge it was the littlest welder that located the cache and then went roaring off my geoninja across the oval whilst I signed us all in. Thanks for the cache BernieH

Ordinarily, I would take two trains to get to the nearest station. Today, it's been two buses, two trams and three trains. But I got here.

And with a bit of time to kill, I took the long way to this evening's event.

On my way from the previous find, I was asked if I could help with a spot of breaking and entering. Er, possibly, said I. It turns out that no breaking was required to open the gate the owner couldn't reach the latch for, and of course I had no need to enter.

So, back to the hunt... and another quick find, especially as the cache was in the open, though in its correct spot. A slight sprinkle meant it should be slightly less likely to be accidentally found.

Thanks, BernieH
