Poor Sue! I think I'd die of shock first before the venom hit me.
Hope she fully recovers soon!

I have one on my kayak..does that count?

Most people get them in Hawaii. I also got the Hawaiian frangipani necklace, and once got a comment that another work colleague had the same necklace. I asked her where she got it (hoping it wasn't a $2 shop style thing) and she got hers in Hawaii too.

I've replaced entire containers and had mine replaced. I was really greatful that it was done, it certainly saved me the cache maintenance journey. When I re-hid the cache that I replaced, I took photos of the new container and the hide to make sure they knew what it was all ok. If it's a cache you ...

I'm all for locationless, as long as it's something cool and not on every street corner (big things and mermaids cool, fire trucks and old signs not)
Not sure how that would be monitored but hopefully we can keep it to worthy and exciting

i only have 5c so here it is. 1. Adam and I are considered a team, a family, whatever. The majority of the caches we have found have been found by one member of the team. If i have a morning spare, I'll cache. If Adam is galavanting around the countryside, he'll cache. If my parents pick up and drop...

Bronze, I like your style. That kinda cache rating system works for me! The rest of the comment I should think would be part of the normal log and therefore there would be no need to add space for another one. and sure, if you're going to bag the cache then put it in an email to the owner. or just b...

I was doing some cache checkups and maintenance today and found a Team Tandoori calling card. I was thrilled to get it and took it home. :) Nice work guys I think it's a great way of identifying good caches.

I think a simple thumbs up or thumbs up or thumbs down system would be better than a star system. it's simple and over time can give an average view on what people thought of the cache without insulting the owner completely.
no 1-5 system, just 1 up or 1 down.

The story of teapots begins with their necessity -- the development of tea and its regular consumption required an efficient, and later an aesthetically pleasing, vessel for brewing and drinking.
