Found GL3EM16Q Teddy Bear's Picnic Cache
This checkin to GL3EM16Q Teddy Bear's Picnic Cache reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Thought the trees might throw off my GPSr, but actually ended up right on top of this cache. It looked undernourished, so I left a TB and a geocoin. TFTC!

Water
My house is full of it. This isn't good.
Much thanks to Welsh Water, where a friendly man talked me through the quirks in my stop tap (who'd have thought that it would be so hard to turn a tap off and drain a system). Now I suppose I ought to start mopping. Then I suppose … -

Found GL3DVXT1 Idiom cat
This checkin to GL3DVXT1 Idiom cat reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The first time I saw this cache was the very first time I looked for it, weeks ago. I worked out exactly where it was, looked there, and stared right at it. I even thought to myself: "Wow, …

Found GL3DV6MJ Llanilar Station
This checkin to GL3DV6MJ Llanilar Station reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Wonderful cache: I love these old stations.

Found GL3DV50A IV Bricks
This checkin to GL3DV50A IV Bricks reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Took me a couple of attempts, even though I'd worked out the clue in the name. Couldn't see for looking, I guess. Took the Medusa geocoin. Left a sliding puzzle game.

Found GL3DV3EE Kinky Tracks
This checkin to GL3DV3EE Kinky Tracks reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. After wiping down my GPS to be able to see the screen in this afternoon's pouring rain, this one turned out to be exactly where I'd have put it, too: should've trusted my instincts. Took the AlwaysLooking geocoin …

Found GL3DV2E0 We're Near Here
This checkin to GL3DV2E0 We're Near Here reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Cache is a little exposed: so much so that when I first saw it I thought "that can't be it - too obvious!" Great little cache container. Lovely view of where the railway track used to run …

Found GL3DV27R Kennel Bridge
This checkin to GL3DV27R Kennel Bridge reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. To think, I've lived in the area for a decade and I've never known about this stretch of old railway. Immediately guessed where the cache would be, and it was a little too visible so I've camoflaged it …

Found GL3DV1XF Y Gelli Ddu
This checkin to GL3DV1XF Y Gelli Ddu reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Great little cache after a very wet hike. Picked up the jeep TB, dropped off Bubbo the Dog TB (apparently he likes animals, so I'm sure he'll enjoy watching the sheep in the nearby field from here). …

Macclesfield
Last weekend, I found myself in Macclesfield to celebrate the engagement of Liz and Simon. Highlights in brief included:
Board games with the happy couple and their friends, as well as the Aberites who were present. Just like old-school Geek Nights.
Liz & Simon's awesome new house. Also, their cats, one of whom … -
