After 333 days of non-stop caching I have decided to stop my daily cache finds and do it a more leisurely pace.
<br><br>
It all started when I heard Flipper & Co achieve 222 days - how hard can it be!! <br><br>
Well I can now say it is hard but I have been lucky and have been able to do a bit of travelling. <br><br>
Well I now throw down the challenge to the next one - 444 days - any one up for the challenge.

Congrats Scott. I reckon that there will still be a fair few caches done though.
Guess on the bright side your map of Adelaide will be looking a fair bit emptier now!

Personally, after that effort, I would do the extra 34, so I had one extra than one every day in a leap year.
Cheers

Some would call it dedication - there is always that thin line between normal and obsession ....

<P>As someone who knows a cacher who has cached for at 200+ days I admire the effort that goes into this but I would definitely call this an obsession!

Well done Firesafe. Now for the really important question: Are you going to make a pathtag to commemorate the achievement like the Flippers did? And if yes, can we trade?!

You must be sick - I would have thought that visit to hospital would have cured the obsession!
More seriously, congratulations on the triple3. Just goes to show, you can have lots of cache finds and still create this type of record

WHAT!? You gave up after only 333 days! This game is full of quitters I tell you!
<p> Seriously of course, an amazing effort. Obsessed and amazing.
<p>
Well done on both the achievement, and on making the decision to stop.

Three hundred and thirty three. An IMPRESSIVE number. It deserves to be written out.
Congratulations.
Where you ever late for tea?
