For all your general chit chat, caching or not.

I don't think I have missed that many. I did do one in the Clare Valley a few years ago that seemed familiar, and when I checked the logbook I had found it a couple of years before and for some reason not logged it.

On a big caching day I will usually scribble the cache name and a note on some paper to jog the memory when I get home about the experience, so I can write something meaningful - I am not going to write a long log on the iPhone keypad.

We are the same, its pen and paper for the found info, for a more detailed found log that evening, or the next day. No phone or GPS logging for me. More time consuming typing on an itty bitty screen with ogre type fingers.

I did a string of caches in a short time in Townsville this week. There's something of a power trail developing there. I was using c:geo on the phone and logged each using the template which basically said "Found it. Longer log to come. Thanks." That way I could edit them all when I got home and put something more meaningful. It's probably the only way I'd remember them all. Would be easy to forget one or two otherwise.
I guess I could have it set at 'TFTC' just to annoy the cache owner. :mrgreen:
