#-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o Here I stand again before you with tail firmly between my legs. It is not that I am a bad man, neither am I disorganised - I am just very forgetful and when people's emails arrived with offers of help for my caches I suspect they were read and appreciated but then sadly f...

Having moved to Queensland 2 years ago and with no short term plans of return, I need someone to take responsibility for my caches as they are slowly but surely becoming defunct. Unfortunately I am also caching less due to other more equine interests. Please email me if you are willing to look after...

I'll fly every cacher in Adelaide to Brisbane when it happens ... another thought ... is there enough lycra in the world?

I think I did at about 9:45 Sunday morning 24/01/2010

A cyclist wearing yellow ... couldn't retrieve a photo though ... dont get me started on how 'locked down' my new work laptop is

Why does there always seem to be someone else there to take photographs/video?

I have no problem solving a Z-man cache - I will just not be finding it!

Avatar changed as per request.

Langy!

I think my new avatar speaks volumes. It might to SA cachers.

Its not personal Nigel. Really.

Mine 'arrived' today and is headed to Lanxi, China.

Hang on I had better research where that is and see if there are any caches there ...

Curious...

But ... it don't work properly coz I don't know how the page is set up - maybe it will help people with this ... I have left it th...

At least yours isn't on a canoe trip up the Colorado River!

Look here!

To the uninitiated it may seem like a huge advantage but most courses have distance markers on everything from poles to sprinkler heads. Having the GPS might actually save time ina golfers round as he/she will not be pacing out distances from the nearest distance marker!

Why haven't I checked the PO Box recently???

NOOOOooooooo.........

<insert expletive here> WORK!

Is there an easy way (oh dear - why did I say that) to create a filter which finds the x caches closest to a given position.

Typically where x is an integer - actually it is max_waypoints for my GPS.

Thanks

Hmmm GIN51E has thrown us a curly one there... If we can get the bug to Adelaide before the Test here it can be in Melbourne for the Boxing Day Test too (tickets and accomodation booked) and then how it gets to Sydney for the 1 day game GIN51E is attending is anyone's guess. Maybe it can go via Canb...
