Bought Sito Tivoli's recently and haven't looked back.
Felt great from new and then wore them in to slippers.
No large hauls yet but they seem to promise good things.

The A320 incident is often misreported. The aircraft was in fact configured as if it were to land at the time. The flaps were away from the up position and the undercarriage was in the down position. The pilot was infact waiting for the automatic protection system called Alpha Floor to activate whic...

Who cares! The Airbus A380 Just took off.

I know it is off topic but one of the great milestones in aviation history just happened tonight.
The new Airbus A380 aircraft just took off. This should go down as one of the milestone achievements in history.
To view live airbus footage.

Does everyone replace the cache as found or do some place it that bit further in or aside, etc. just to make it harder for the next finders?

I have never been able to do an update of the Stars from the Forum because of this problem. Riblit should have an e-mail in his inbox at the moment due to this.

Posspet gets divided into Poss and Pet. The chanel 10 show Comedy Company years ago had a skit with Magda Szubanski in it leaning over the fence with a fag in her mouth saying something like "I said pet, I said love...." Poss is short for possum and Pet is short for pet. Put the 2 together and you a...

It's hard to find the cache GC2FCD Piggy's Remarcable Cache when it has been archived. Is it still there or not???
No wonder it was so hard to find by doing searches.
Can I log this cache just for being able to find it on GC.com? :lol: :shock:

I don't seem to be able to find any reference to AMG in the OziExplorer program.

Am I required to do some sort of manual setup or is there another way?

Is AMG called some other name?

Australian Map Grid Conversion

I have a map which only uses Australian Map Grid (AMG) numbers.
Can anyone tell me how I can convert these to a more useable datum like WGS84?
Then I wish to callibrate it in OziExplorer.

Last month I did 23 in one day and my feet have not been the same since. This was with only 1 DNF that was later confirmed as not being there. If you planned out a trip for an area with quite a few caches in it you could easily achieve upwards of 30. It's easy when you know where they are but if the...
