Nah, <br>
Its a local joke here in the ACT - I often ride up to a cache location, park my bike, then spend quite a while trying to find the cache, only to find I parked my bike right on top of it. More than a few times too!

I can sympathize I,ve parked my car on a waypoint of a multi designed by Mix in Dubbo during an event on a June long weekend. My mistake was actually admitting it in front of all the other participants :oops: and I still cop some ribbing about it :wink:

I parked the car so close to Obsessions and For(t)e!s I had to slide across the bonnet to get to it :D I guess you would have to have found the cache to understand the situation...

I parked the car on top of one for the points for SS-BJC's Marking my territory... Shell had a good laugh and I still didn't find the cache. I made a mistake writing down one of the numbers and ended up with a point a long long way away. I have yet to go back and have a second go.

That's a good trick, I'd like to know how you managed it. I didn't think you could get a car up there :?

Maybe that's why I ended up in the middle of nowhere....

I think this one is a bit strange. In almost 2 years of caching I have never been out and found a cache on the 4th of the month. (as per graph finds by day of the month).

Has anyone else got a particular day they haven't been out on?

I got my first FTF in 2006, and exactly 365 days later, I got 2 in 1 day :D
