Who says summers it the best time of the year to be out and about - I'm loving the current Adelaide weather :mrgreen:

One of the best night caching sessions I had was in Melbourne, on a public holiday, at night, in the rain.... picked up nearly all the really hard nano/micros in one walk as the place was a ghost town :D Laneways series much easier sans-muggles :D

PS - You know you are a geocacher when you offer a lift to random backpackers staying in your hostel... on the condition they are aware the 1 hour drive to Belfast will if fact take more like 3 hours due to "random-treasure-events" along the way...

You know you're a geocacher when Covert posts a comment and you get upset that he's beaten you to the punch yet again.


Ohhhh.... the dreaded red stamp

You know you're a GCA cacher when your non-caching geowife is watching "The Farmer Wants A Wife" and spots a trig on a property so calls out to trig obsessed geoboy.

... you pick products at the supermarket based on the suitability of the packaging to serve as a cache container.

...you get to your hostel in Dublin last night and are presented with a book to sign in to... you then write the date and your Cacher Name down and only release your mistake when a thought strikes you it would be fairly odd to write TFTC in the "Number of Nights" column...

When you seriously consider burying the kids easter eggs and giving them the co-ords to go find them. I did not do it but still think it would be good fun for them and me!

I love it !
It makes perfect sense to me as Rabbit's are well known for their digging skills.

You are going on a spontaneous trip to melbourne, to see a show, and the first thing that pops into your head? "Hey, i can start doing the B&W series!"
(and have spent too long looking at other caches in melbourne too..)
