... | 1111 | GL4WXT2X | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | mel-ray | Doing only one cache in one day make this new cache our number one cache for 1.1.11 signing the number one position on the log. Thanks for a good start to the New Year. FTF, Left TB & T4TC. |
... | CM831 | GL4WZA4R | Church Micro 831 - Little Totham Evangelical | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | E301 | GL4WWVT7 | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | Stones2005 | 1512 We couldn't find this at first and thought we were off to a bad start but then I found it on the ground in front of the tree. We put it back in a hole in the tree at the back about knee high - not sure if this is where it should go but it seemed like a cache sized hole! TFTC |
... | E302 | GL4WWW1E | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | Stones2005 | 1513 Quick find - got muggled by two dogs! TFTC |
... | E303 | GL4WWW9R | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | Stones2005 | 1514 Easy find here. TFTC |
... | E304 | GL4WWWKQ | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | Stones2005 | 1515 Just as we got to the sea wall a large skein of geese took off and flew past us honking madly. TFTC |
... | E306 | GL4WWWXZ | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | Stones2005 | 1516 Took a little while to find as fingertip search was obviously not thorough enough! TFTC |
... | E309 | GL4WWX73 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | Stones2005 | 1517 Spotted quickly, then dropped in the long grass so had to rumage around to find it again! TFTC |
... | E310 | GL4WWXN9 | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | Stones2005 | 1518 It seems that every cache we come to just happens to coincide with people coming the other away! Had to stop and faff about here to let them pass, then a quick find. TFTC |
... | E313 | GL4WWYJX | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | Stones2005 | 1520 Interesting notice board near here - spent some time reading while munching some lunch. TFTC |
... | E314 | GL4WWZ3G | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | Stones2005 | 1521 Lovely day for a walk today - we had expected it to be quite cold and windy but it wasn't at all, and we only put our hats and gloves on about here as we were quite warm before. TFTC |
... | E315 | GL4WWZJR | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | Stones2005 | 1522 Getting good views from here of the (romantic!) place we first met all those years ago - Bradwell Nuclear Power Station!! TFTC |
... | E316 | GL4WWZW2 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | Stones2005 | 1523 Had to wait for a lady jogger and her two dogs to pass before reteiving cache. TFTC |
... | E317 | GL4WX0H1 | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | Stones2005 | 1524 The problem with caches at benches is that people tend to sit on them for ages! We walked slowly up to this one but they did not budge so we decided to carry on to the next then double back, but they eventually moved when we had got about halfway so we returned for a quick find. TFTC |
... | E318 | GL4WX10R | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Stones2005 | 1525 We can't believe how many people are walking round here today (New Year's resolutions to get fit?) TFTC |
... | E320 | GL4WX19G | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | Stones2005 | 1526 No one sitting on this bench - probably because it was a bit damp. TFTC |
... | E321 | GL4WX1KF | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Stones2005 | 1527 Tide was right out near here so there were lots of boats up high and dry. TFTC |
... | E322 | GL4WX22F | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | Stones2005 | 1528 Not quite sure we went the correct way to this cache but a quick find once there. TFTC |
... | E323 | GL4WX2MA | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | Stones2005 | 1530 Easy find TFTC |
... | RR032 | GL4WZA1C | RR032 - Quite Near Olive | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | X-TB1 | GL4WZ9JK | Tolleshunt Bell - 1 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Cache completely replaced as the old one was leaky. Now a small round clip box. |
... | X-TB1.5 | GL4WZ9NG | Tolleshunt Bell - 1.5 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | X-TB2 | GL4WZ9R8 | Tolleshunt Bell - 2 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | X-TB2.5 | GL4WZ9VA | Tolleshunt Bell - 2.5 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | X-TWB | GL4WX326 | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | Stones2005 | 1531 And so on to the final cache today. Many thanks for a great walk - certainly cleared some Christmas cobwebs away. |

03 Jan 2011 | 1111 | GL4X7PNA | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Write note | cookie cook | Happy new year Schoolfrenz! I had actually put a cache down here but never got round to setting it up as it was part of a multi cache all over essex! And 2/5 of the multi locations were not allowed! Hope all is well |
... | 1111 | GL4X84A5 | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Write note | Mr Crow | Happy 2011 to you cookie cook. Apologies for nicking your hide. It's such a great place for a cache I couldn't resist it. |
... | 1111 | GL4X995H | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | Kitty!! | Found 3 Schoolfrenz caches earlier on and Schoolfrenz happened to mention to Jess that this one was pink. As we headed up the footpath Little One linked arms with me and said "I don't like to admit this - but I am excited about this one!" (Yah - knew she liked caching really!) And Oh My was this pink and Oh did it have some good trades for a mini-cacher. Voted as best cache of the morning by Jess as 1. there was no mud, 2. the cache was very pink, 3. it was a short but pleasant stroll to the hide and 4. lots of trades. Picked up a TB to drop off at Essex Meet No 7. And then off we headed to the Jam Factory for Hot Chocolate where Little One explained her ideas for some new caches by Bunny Ears! TFTExcellentC |
... | E111A | GL4X8GGP | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | stephia4 | Spent a reasonable amoint of time looking for this one. Got there in the end though. Taken TB, sorry our tradeables are a bit large for the cache. TFTC :-) |
... | E111A | GL4X930N | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | cookie cook | Final cache for the evening.. off to plant a new one! Really good hide.. we had to do it by torch light but still it was quite a search! Took TB |
... | E111A | GL53Y2EX | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Write note | cookie cook | TB MILES |
... | E301 | GL4X86BJ | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | Lennyemmy | A nice quick find, a great start to what was to be a fabulous day out caching!
Replaced back as found with twigs on top.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E302 | GL4X86YN | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | Lennyemmy | Another quick find, SL, TFTC :) |
... | E303 | GL4X87B7 | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | Lennyemmy | I liked this one, what a great little hide, a perfect sized hole!
That's the prequels done now onto the sea wall!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E304 | GL4X88BD | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | Lennyemmy | The first proper look at the water, well what a fantastic view!
Looked amazing even on this chilly day, must be gorgeous in the summer!
The dog jumped straight over the wall and into the water, he loved it.
Cache easily found, SL, TFTC :) |
... | E306 | GL4X890F | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | Lennyemmy | Another nice quick find, SL, TFTC :) |
... | E309 | GL4X89ME | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | Lennyemmy | Another quick find, we were beginning to realise by this point how long the walk was going to be......if only you could walk across the water, lol!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E310 | GL4X8AJF | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Didn't find it | Lennyemmy | Disappointed to say that I couldn't find this one....despite a good search.
Wish I had read the logs properly :( It sounds like it is in the one place I didn't look.
Never mind, it's such a nice walk....so will return soon for another go. :) |
... | E313 | GL4X8D3Q | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | Lennyemmy | Interesting to read the information board here, nice bit of history.
This one was a little tricky due to the muggles wandering along behind. Whilst they were looking at the water, I ran down and grabbed.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E314 | GL4X8DM2 | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | Lennyemmy | Soon spotted the right place however muggles were coming from all directions by this point! They were all out for there bank holiday Monday stroll.
Stopped to take some photos of the water ;), and bent down and grabbed it.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E315 | GL4X8EAQ | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | Lennyemmy | Enjoyed the views from this one, sat for a while on the pill box waiting for several muggles to pass. Ate our sandwiches and gave the dog a drink whilst we waited!
Quick find once I had found the right post!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E316 | GL4X8EXJ | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | Lennyemmy | Nice quick find, great when you know where to look, if only all caches were like this ;) hee hee!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E317 | GL4X8F91 | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | Lennyemmy | Took a few mins this one, as couldn't find any metal for it to be attached to....soon realised where I should be looking and found.
Luckily no muggles sitting on this bench.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E318 | GL4X8H8B | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Lennyemmy | Muggles galore now.....ran down and grabbed this one, leaving Dad and the dog up on the bank.
Another quick find, but took a bit of a stretch, I must have short fingers lol!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E320 | GL4X8J72 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | Lennyemmy | As we approached this one, a couple was just sitting down, oh no we thought, but luckily as we approached they moved on :D.
Nice quick find as knew what to look for after the last bench.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E321 | GL4X8K39 | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Lennyemmy | We were too busy looking at the boats and walked straight past this one!
All of a sudden I remembered, checked GPS, and we were 200ft away, so only a short walk back!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | E322 | GL4X8NHB | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | Lennyemmy | Walked down to the Mell Farm Meat cache, and then came back up to the sequels after, was getting worn out by this point!
Nice quick find, SL, TFTC :) |
... | E323 | GL4X8Q04 | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | Lennyemmy | Soon spotted this neat little hide, however had to wait to retrieve as a muggle dog walker was approaching.
Unfortunately we were enjoying the walk and the views so much that we forgot to get the numbers for the bonus. D'oh! Never mind when we return to get the DNF at #4, we will get them then.
Thank you very much for a very enjoyable series, and bringing me to a place I had never been before! It has been my most successful days caching so far! :D |

It was the quickest we have ever put on jackets, grabbed for the torches and off we headed into the darkness. Wow! FTF what more can one ask for..TFT Brilliant cache

... | RR045 | GL4XA6P2 | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Write note | Mr Crow | I think Mel & Ray's swift find was a truly remarkable perfomance on what I thought was my toughest RR puzzle to-date. WELL DONE. |
... | RR045 | GL4XAAK9 | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Found it | HelennTribe | Had a look at the site at 10pm and saw a new RR cache released. Quickly solved by B. The Geochecker indicated another cacher had already solved the puzzle so thought we would go and have a look just in case. Well done to Mel and Ray. TNLN TFTC

... | RR045 | GL4XAB6X | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Write note | Mr Crow | Schoolfrenz is bemused again at such puzzling expertise. Well Done H&B. |
... | RR247 | GL4X8KDT | RR247 - Panglossian | Found it | Kitty!! | Found the Schoolfrenz cache up the road with Jess and Schoolfrenz himself. Jess had, yet again, developed blister issues (must get her some decent socks!) and a debate ensued as to whether or not it was wise to carry on and find this one. Schoolfrenz shook his head and warned of dire mud issues. Jess gave me the look that said "lets go home"! However, having an extremely optimistic disposition(!!), could think of nothing better than to plod onwards!
And yes, there was mud! But rather than make for an unpleasant arduous walk it caused much hilarity - especialy with Jess as she carried half the field up to the cache with her! What joy to have a little one smiling whilst caching (see photos!) you couldn't ask for more.
Yet again a fun puzzle, great cache, brilliant walk in the best of company and a first rate novel that is well worth a read.

... | RR248 | GL4X857D | RR248 - Schoolfrenz | Found it | Kitty!! | My error back in December was due to adding hydrant numbers to the coordinates for start of footpath instead of puzzle coordinates! Doh! However, glad to revisit today as Jess agreed to join me (nothing, I am sure, to do with the a visit to the "Crows Nest" and refreshments thereafter!) Schoolfrenz joined us on the short and pleasant walk up to the cache - which Jess found.
I enjoyed, the puzzle, the walk and, of course, the excellent novel - all three highly recommended.

04 Jan 2011 | 1111 | GL4XCJGZ | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | HollynCharlie | Decided to take a brisk walk after work with the doggies to grab this cache, It was very dark and a little eerie with just the traffic headlights overlooking the fields. Didnt get to see much of the river as it was pitch black at GZ. Nice swift find, Jen loves the container! I see some familiar faces have been here today.....I wonder who got a ftf today as we see this pair are gallivanting again on a week day???? Swapped TB's TFTC and will start on those puzzles again now Christmas and the hectic end of last year is out of the way... Happy New Year!!! |
... | 1111 | GL4XCNTK | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | gillywig | Out en route to RR45, a pleasant stroll to search for the pink pot! Great location and quickly found. No sign of the bears TB. took rally medal and truck left bangles and TB1 TB. ThanksFTC Ray. Looking forward to 11-11-11 ? Shame we missed bumping into Simon and Jen hopefully see you soon. |
... | 1111 | GL4XCQZR | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Write note | mel-ray | High lighted 11-11-11 on calander and will be on standby. |
... | 1111 | GL4XCT4E | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Write note | Mr Crow | Gillywig not only have brains the size of two planets, but can also now read minds too! Yes, there will be a sequel Rally Round 111 on 11-11-11@11:11 - but that means you'll have another 63 RRs to do before November. |

... | RR020 | GL4XDE52 | RR020 - Sains Approach | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Happy cache. |
... | RR045 | GL4XCQE1 | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Found it | gillywig | Gilly wasn't very wide awake this morning, after another very late night in the busy pub. Eyes not working and grunts the only form of communication! Putting the kettle on and booting up the laptop, suddenly awakened by the prospect of a new Rally Round cache. On full alert now! Opening the cache page, realise that it's a job for the sexy,new Christmas wireless printer. Grahame was suitably impressed with the fact that I could find a known point on the map straight away and from then on it was a case of navigating backwards and forwards until we had a meeting of pencil lines. Another monumental cache ..... loved the cool chicken! Our chickens are now asking for cool shades! SL TFTC Once again, we're in awe of your computing skills, testing our driver/navigator co-ordination once again! |

Note to Schoolfrenz - Ray its a long walk to pick up one little micro, however thanks for bringing me back here again. It was a great day to be out on the sea wall. Cold but sunny. TFTC |
... | RR010 | GL4XFCHW | RR010 - 01derful | Found it | gspleo | Once I'd solved the puzzle, had short walk to gz and quick find (thanks to hint) Very clever hide. Log is a bit damp. TFTC. Now to put some serious thinking time in solving some of the others in the series. |

09 Jan 2011 | 1111 | GL4XYCBF | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | mcwomble | #2078 A rather pleasant walk to finish off the day for me - said hello to the coppicer on the way passed and the pink pot located in the expected place. Thankfully the river level wasn't as high as expected.
Thanks for bringing me here and thanks for the cache.
PS. That explains the renaming of the sequel RR caches - though it odd we'd jumped from RR45 to RR49

... | CM831 | GL4XXBF5 | Church Micro 831 - Little Totham Evangelical | Found it | Stones2005 | 1546 Had good fun solving this puzzle. We meant to find this at the start of our walk after the bonus cache, but the obvious path between the two obviously wasn't and we couldn't get near. So once back at the car we took another path and cache soon found. Took keyring left Bertie Bear TB TFTC |
... | CM831A | GL4XX3HA | Church Micro 830 - Little Totham - Revisited | Found it | Stones2005 | 1534 We started our walk by parking near the church and went along to this one first. The cache is wet inside so we emptied the water out but the log was diffricult to write on. TFTC |
... | CM848 | GL4Y1W6Y | Church Micro 848 - All Saints, Great Braxted | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | A bit damp and exposed, but okay and camo'd. |
... | PC1 | GL4XX403 | PolyCache 1 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1535 We approached this from the south as we had worked out a walk incorporating these and other caches, so we walked past some of the multis first without knowing where they were. This was a quick find and nice and dry inside. Numbers noted. TFTC |
... | PC2 | GL4XX49G | PolyCache 2 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1536 Worked out the coords from cache 1 and we had indeed walked right past this earlier. TFTC |
... | PC3 | GL4XX52J | PolyCache 3 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1537 Coords worked out and on to no 3. On arrival we saw the obvious place but no sign of a cache - we even tried putting our hands right in but it wasn't there. We remembered a cache from last week (Tollesbury Wick prequel 1) which we had eventually found on the ground, so I started kicking the fallen leaves around a bit and unearthed the cache! Put it back where it should have been and topped with camo to hopefully keep it in place. TFTC |
... | PC4 | GL4XX6QH | PolyCache 4 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1539 We'd already walked past here blissfully unaware but cache was an easy spot when approached from this direction. TFTC |
... | RR001 | GL4XY3W9 | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Write note | mcwomble | Spotted this one glowing at me from its hiding place - didn't it used to have a camo bag for cover, or am I imagining things?
Stopped to re-hide this one and replace/rearrange the stick-o-flage. |
... | RR006X | GL4XX9AR | RR006 - Totham Triangle 2 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1542 Rather muddy along here, then pushed my way through the branches to reach cache. TFTC |
... | RR007 | GL4XXAC1 | RR007 - Totham Triangle 3 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1544 Easy find here after walking across the squelchy field. TFTC |
... | RR022X | GL4XX6AY | RR022 - PolyCache 5 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1538 We nearly had a right disaster here! I hadn't been able to solve the puzzle, so last night when we decided to do this series I showed Mr Stones who knew what to do in an instant. We then quickly had the coords. Today after finding no 3, I knew this was a bit further along the path as I had marked it on my map, but I hadn't written the coords we had just worked out on my master list and the workings out were in the car So we walked along a bit and started looking for telltale signs and the hiding place was soon spotted! TFTC |
... | RR023X | GL4XX7EP | RR023 - Sum Problem | Found it | Stones2005 | 1540 This took us longer to find than it should have done. We saw an obvious place but then had to go a different way round to reach it. When we got there we had a good look but couldn't find anything so we went back round the other way but there were no obvious hiding places there. Finally we decided it must be at the first place we looked and Mr Stones went straight to it - Doh! TFTC |
... | RR035 | GL4XY72B | RR035 - Board Game 1 | Found it | mcwomble | #2075 This was one of Schoolfrenz more frustrating puzzles at the time. An FTF opportunity missed having been out of the blocks and at the very last corner in less than 24 hours only to spin off and get stuck in the gravel trap - and all Schoolfrenz could do was chortle from the roadside. The gravel was eventually cleared and it's only now that I'm limping across the finish line with a really rather splendid walk out to the cache. The experience did make RR45 a doddle as well as a feeling of "if only I'd thought of that last time!" TFTC |
... | RR036X | GL4XY082 | Rally Round 36 aka Leg-ability 1 | Found it | mcwomble | #2071 A nice easy find for this one but then I knew exactly where to look having discovered MelRay searching for it on one of the Leg-ability challenges in July last year. The location was considerably sparser at this time of year and easy to spot if you know what you're looking for. The log is a little worn and has got wet at sometime in the past and wouldn't stay in the cap so replacing the container was a two handed affair. Thanks for this walk again (4th or 5th time now!) TFTC |
... | RR037X | GL4XY1K0 | Rally Round 37 aka Leg-ability 2 | Found it | mcwomble | #2072 Another walk revisited and yet again I made the same mistake of trying to access via the "yard". Having sloshed through the mud, I realised the mistake and retraced steps back to the correct starting point. Another exposed cache but I suspect this walk is one of those "less travelled by" byways. Again another log that was little damp and looking a little tired. Thanks for the walk and TFTC |
... | RR038X | GL4XYAA6 | RR038 - Village Haul | Found it | mcwomble | #2076 Having been forewarned by the WW's log of the advance gadgetry they used, I did some homework and invented a letter counting machine especially for the task. A very pleasant walk around the grounds looking for the clues and noting the use the whole community makes of the facilities. Today was boys football on one part, dog training classes on an adjacent plot and occasionally the exciting interaction between the two. My non-local status was immediately noticed and 2 of the doggie experts were kind enough to point out two of the clues I required. The hamster powered counter was soon fed the information, the button pressed and after much whirring and clicking out came a dubious solution. A re-check of the cache page and reversal of a couple of cogs, button pressed more whirring, clicking and again another dubious solution. It is amazing how even if you've written down the correct inscription your mind takes over and you put in what you think it should be rather that what it is. A correction of an 'of' to 'at' and the correct solution was in hand. A rather muddy walk to the cache and I was signing the rain spattered log. Thanks for the puzzle and thanks for the cache

... | RR039 | GL4XXA40 | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Found it | Stones2005 | 1543 My GPS was pointing 40ft along the hedge but Mr Stones looked the other way and spotted the cache. TFTC |
... | RR039 | GL4XXYRQ | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Found it | mcwomble | #2070 Like the Stones my GPS had taken me past the GZ and on the way to RR5. Having not found the expected placement I turned back and spotted it lurking where I'd just walked past. Log has had some water damage in the past but OK. TFTC |
... | RR040 | GL4XX8Y7 | RR040 - Mummy Crow | Found it | Stones2005 | 1541 After the last cache we found, we walked past some Alpacas and were so busy watching them that we didn't notice the footpath swapped to the other vside of the hedge until we came to a dead end and couldn't go any further! A quick find at the start of this muddy footpath. TFTC |
... | RR040 | GL4XXWJ3 | RR040 - Mummy Crow | Found it | mcwomble | #2069 Another tricky place to park at for a cache & dash on the rather wonderful green lane. I was left wondering as to whether Schoolfrenz has the "where does that go" curiosity that I use to discover places like this. TFTC |
... | RR041 | GL4XXAXB | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | Stones2005 | 1545 Quick find. We noticed that this one had already been McWombled today along with Mummy and Daddy crows but he had obviously got confused here and put the date down as the 11th! We have changed it for you! TFTC |
... | RR041 | GL4XXV80 | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | mcwomble | #2068 Another site revisited and again the problem of where to park the car. Like last time I parked by the junction and walked back to the cache. For some reason I jumped to the 11th on this one, probably due to the last log from Cassandy. TFTC |
... | RR042 | GL4XY55Z | RR042 - Grandpa Crow | Found it | mcwomble | #2074 What's this, a bit of virgin footpath? Venturing boldly into terra incognita I eschewed the map's invitation to walk through the crops in favour of the longer walk round the margins. Another quick find and a fiddly log replace. Thanks for the new bit of walk & TFTC |
... | RR043 | GL4XY34B | RR043 - Grandma Crow | Found it | mcwomble | #2073 Another path that becoming a bit of a favourite for cache setters and interesting to visit in winter when there's no foliage and the tunnel is a little more open. Almost came a cropper on this one as the GPS was pointing off the path and I realised I'd not solved the anagram for this one or rather I'd not brought it with me if I did. Looked for the usual MO and quickly found. TFTC |
... | RR044 | GL4XYBA6 | RR044 - Ms Kitty | Found it | mcwomble | #2077 The last of the Rally Rounds for me today and the muddiest walk of the day - I do hate the way that horseriders can wantonly destroy a footpath/bridleway for the pedestrians who have to follow them. It was a case of either walking through the crops or through the hedge to avoid the ankle deep mud in places. A rather splendidly large cache was the prize at the end and then back through the Somme! TNLN TFTC and thanks for a rather splendid morning/afternoon of Rally Round caching. |
... | RR045 | GL4XXT4Q | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Found it | mcwomble | #2067 I missed the notification on this one for some reason and only noticed when it appeared in Gillywigs found list. A reasonably swift solution and added to "must do" pile. A very lovely walk out this morning in familiar territory, I think all bar one of todays caches were re-treading paths used for other Rally Round puzzles. Great to be back - TFTC

... | RR049 | GL4XX6G9 | RR049 - Duck Corner | Write note | Kitty!! | Frustration - solved a SF puzzle before a find is logged (once in a lifetime event!) and unable to visit! Would like to claim FTVF (first to virtually find) if no one has actually signed log by 1430! Anne PS I await Gillywig and Mel-Ray's logs! |
... | RR049 | GL4XXD3W | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | Stones2005 | 1547 When I did a pocket query last night as we were coming to the area, I noticed this new one so quickly solved. We decided to come along here first before our walk to see if we could be first to find and got here at 9.30. As there was a very large obstacle in front of the cache Mr Stones volunteered to go and look but he could not find it. So we went on our walk and came back again at the end. This time I braved the obstacle and found the cache within seconds! Unfortunately by now it had been McWombled (he is obviously very brave as well!) So the question is had McWomble already found it by 9.30am or did Mr Stones lose us a FTF!! TFTC - a fun puzzle to solve |
... | RR049 | GL4XXQWG | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | mcwomble | #2066 FTF "And so I'm back, from that Church Micro place, you just walked to find me with that FTF look upon my face!" Arrived back home last night after a pleasant afternoon at the District ringers annual meeting followed by a more pleasant pint at the Rodney in Little Baddow, to discover a new Rally Round puzzle published. The solution was quickly solved and it seemed rude not to spend the morning at least catching up on the remaining missing Rally Round puzzles - the alarm clock was set! Sorry to report to the Stones that you missed me by about an hour - I was breaking the ice on this one so to speak at about 0830 after an "interesting" drive in on obviously un-salted roads. Thanks for the puzzle Ray & TFTC |

(James) from that CM space We just waded in to find you here with that FTF look upon your face Ray should have made that web page lock He should have made you leave your key If we had known for just one day you'd be back to compete, tee-hee Go on now go walk out the door just turn around now 'cause you're so welcome evermore weren't you the one who always tried to FTF you think we'd crumble you think we'd lay down and die Oh no, not us We will compete It took all the strength we had not to fall apart kept trying hard to solve the puzzles of Ray's cunning art and we spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for ourself We'd want to cry Now we can hold our heads up high as long as we know how to cache We know we'll stay alive We've got plenty time to give We've got all many logs to scribe we'll forever Rally Round We will survive Thanks Ray for another great puzzle and cache which almost fooled one of us.

Yes! anybody to help. Would you believe the cache was in sight? Yes I'm certain that happens all the time.
What do you do when the turn is just right? I can't tell you, but I know it's mine, Oh! I we got by with a little help from a gps.. Mmm we got by with a little help from a gps, You must try with a little help from a gps.. How do you feel at the end of the cache, Lend we your ear and sing you a clue. Thanks Ray for yet another brilliant cache... TFTC |

18 Jan 2011 | 1111 | GL4Z1HAD | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | gspleo | Started to look for this 2 weeks ago in the dark with the aid of my car Sat Nav as my gps had just died whilst searching for another cache. The Sat Nav took me to somewhere at least quarter of a mile away where I spent the best part of half an hour searching. Straight forward find today although lots of flood warter about so glad of wellies. TNLN TFTC
Note to future cachers. Having tried both the east parking is better than the west although a little further from gz. |
... | CM848 | GL4Z1J2V | Church Micro 848 - All Saints, Great Braxted | Didn't find it | gspleo | Attempted this a couple of weeks ago when gates were open. Found all clues but one but unfortunately gps packed up. Returned today but gates locked and reluctant to climb over. Made a guess at missing number and spent about half an hour searching with no success. On returning home and using geochecker it appears I was completely in the wrong place!! |

... | X-TB0 | GL515JRE | Tolleshunt Bell - Prequel 1 | Found it | HelennTribe | B has been sat in his office for the last 30 consecutive very long days. With the last tax return filed late last night what better way to spend today than caching. Having not used the legs for a month we needed a walk that was not too long but would give us a little stretch, and not too far from home to get back for the playschool pickup, this series seemed to fit the bill.
Bit of a challenge to find the first clues as the hedge is rather over grown at the moment. First cache nice quick find - good start. TFTC helennbrian

... | X-TB2 | GL515MGM | Tolleshunt Bell - 2 | Found it | HelennTribe | This had been suppossed to be a gentle walk to get back into the swing of caching, it appeared to be throwing a lot of challenges. Here we found a field full of VERY frisky horses, which we did not fancy trying to pass through. We saw a footpath further along and hoped it was the other side of the field, it was, but it was in the field still not out, so keeping very close to the fence we walked through a lot more bog around the edge keeping an eye on the horses guarding the gate opposite. Fortunately they stayed at the other side and we found the cache quickly.

Definitely had a head full of dandelion fluff yesterday for not spotting this one - just couldn't see it for looking at it - like AndyK said it's not that difficult. Ah well Schoolfrenz got one over on me!
Found tonight in the dark and Gillywig style too for added bonus points! And now to venture north of the border again!
Thanks for bringing me here and thanks for the cache

... | RR220 | GL52092D | RR220 - Wobderful | Found it | cazmockett | #1068 found @ 13:30. I'm rubbish at puzzles, and I've been looking at this one for a week or so, scratching my head. In the end, I was given a helpful prod in the right direction, and then it was "easy". The find itself was straightforward, but getting the co-ords in the first place was a little more difficult! I should also have anticipated more mud on the ground - my trainers are now in a bit of a state, but who cares? Another one in the bag! Thanks Kitty and Schoolfrenz for an excuse to get out for a walk while the sun was out.... Now home in time to watch the rugby on the telly |

... | RR051X | GL52CKFJ | RR051 - RGB | Found it | G.O. Cash | FTF. After caching with mel-ray in the area recently, I spotted a large number of puzzle caches on the map not far away. I had in fact noticed the Schoolfrenz caches before, but they seemed too far out of my area. Over the past week or so, I solved a few of the RR puzzles and was thinking about a trip to the area to log the caches. When I saw this new one pop up, I had the right idea very early on, as I had encountered something similar in another puzzle before. There was a bit of an extra twist here however, but the tools I still had on my computer from solving the other puzzle proved to be useful nevertheless. Thought I had a good chance to score FTF despite the distance, so I didn't want to wait until I had plotted out the other solved RR puzzles, and came here right away. Cache is well tucked away, took me a few attempts to exclude the wrong options. Good hide, and very nice, tricky puzzle, Thank you! Look forward to finding more of your caches. |
14 Feb 2011 | DC | GL52G20Z | Dryhen Cackles | Found it | UrsusBear | We parked up by the church at Great Bradley and very quickly collected all the answers needed. We then set out along the footpaths in the bright sunshine to head for the cache. Along the way we watched a buzzard fly out from some woods and fly around for a while. Soon enough we reached the lovely spot where the cache was hidden, a great little patch. We hunted around for a while here, though we were quite sure where the cache would be. Finally we spotted it, very well tucked away.
From here we continued on to walk around Cobblers 5k Walk. |
... | RR051X | GL52CT6P | RR051 - RGB | Found it | mcwomble | #2087 Arrived home in the wee small hours from another long weekend of umpiring - this time the Scottish Senior Championships - to discover a new RR cache has been published. A very swift solution followed so I thought "what the heck" another hour up wont matter. A quick find at the GZ - the footprints and flattened grass were an indication I wasn't FTF and sure enough G.O.Cash had got there first. Thanks for the puzzle and the hour less sleep! TFTC |
... | RR051X | GL52GC2N | RR051 - RGB | Found it | mel-ray | This was a nice little hide after solving the anagram and getting a little help from a friend. We would have not been able to spot this one. I will have to dot this one down for the future. Enjoyed the walk around the dam and spotted lots of possibilities matching the hint, but all for nothing. This cache is almost on our backdoor and it took someone from London to get a FTF. Well done G.O.Cash & T4TC

I'm still not sure how i did it but it took about an hour of intense thought before I got to the next stage, so to speak. Even with this part complete, it still took me quite a while to get the correct co ords...Google Earth confirmed the position before i left and it looked pretty good and as it turned out, it was!
The cache find it very easy once you have the correct co ords, the hard part is obtaining them!
Helen and Brian beat me to this one too today.
TNLN Great little puzzle, thanks. |

21 Feb 2011 | RR049 | GL53GQZ0 | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | Kitty!! | Mr Crow recently commented that he had noticed Kitty hadn't found a significant No of his Rally Round caches and that she ought to put that right. LOL - Kitty has picked off the 'easy' ones and had just about come to a grinding halt! Nonetheless I was passing this area tonight so thought I'd pick off another easy one - but what it lacked in the difficulty stakes it made up for in the retrieval lake! Nice location - for ducks!

24 Feb 2011 | CM1292 | GL53W67M | Church Micro 1292 - Tolleshunt Knights - Annexe | Found it | scarecrow rog | Rather nice spot in beautiful location next to and old disused railway line.Took ages to find the last clue but Hawkeye French boy came up with the goods. There is a Monastery in the same road and we had to swerve around a couple of Black swathed Monks , Spookey!! or what, I waved to one and he gave me a sign , extra spookey !! Went to GZ after around half an hour and found the area was the site of the Tolleshunt Knight chainsaw massacre. Polly found a mangled box of tricks but still dry. As Schoolfriends had made us work so blooming hard I suggested we replace it somewhere else and give him hard clues to get it back, course this is the sort of stuff Scarecrows do in-it ? But NO all the other do gooders in my group said boreing NO !! Doh !! TFTPOC [ Thanks for the pieces of cache ] SL Scarecrow Rog & softie gang I think do gooder French Boy is going to report where it is now, no sense of fun some folks, Doh !!

... | CM1292 | GL53WBFK | Church Micro 1292 - Tolleshunt Knights - Annexe | Found it | frenchboy | Collected the clues, some very cunning, and made off to GZ. My fellow cachers Polly Styrene, Frenchgirl & Scarecrow Rog were ahead of me and suddenly Polly exclaimed "I don't believe it !" And there was poor Ray's new pot shredded to bits by a chainsaw as it appears GZ finally crumbled sometime recently and had been partially tidied up. Have sent Email to CO. TFTC though |

... | RR049 | GL53WCKC | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | HollynCharlie | Solved this cute little puzzle when it first came out but for some reason we have not been to the area recently so tonight we thought we would take a trip out and find a couple from our ever growing pile of solved caches. Thankfully Jen had donned the wellies as the puddle was like a small lake. Cache was soon in hand and had nice clean wellies at the end of it. We always thought this was a nice spot so it was nice for it to get a cache too!! TFTC |

... | RR003X | GL54BN5D | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | Kitty!! | Before I start this log, I would like to put on record that Kitty openly admits that the bird's brain is superior to the fluff that fills Kitty's cranium. BUT ... Mr Crow recently lamented how few Rally Rounds Kitty had found. The difficulty levels and fluff factor could not, however, explain why Kitty hadn't embarked on this early Rally Round puzzle with only a difficulty 2 rating. Surely, Mr Crow thought, EVEN Fluffy could manage this one? And so it came to pass that Kitty broached the fact that she thought Mr Crow's puzzle was flawed ! Oh you might very well wince at the idea of the Kitty suggesting such a thing to Mr Crow! I too wince as I remember Mr Crow glaring down his beak at me. (Ouch!) But, in for a penny ... So Kitty explained that Mr Crow's instructions simply did not work (for her) and not wanting to appear a fluff brain referred Mr Crow to some difficulties logged by previous cachers. Fluffy didn't notice the wounded look turn to a grimace and unperturbed continued to substantiate her theory - ie there had only been 8 finds in a two year period. For a level 2 puzzle in the countryside might this not indicate an incey wincey problem? Strangely, Mr Crow did not seem impressed by the Fluffy concept and benevolently offered a herringbone tutorial! The Crow and the Kitty were agreed that a certain point can be reached on the map that is fairly obvious. And then the 'problem' manifests iteslf. The rules state "ignore road on the right". DOH!! Fluffy thought "ignore road on right" meant "Dont turn right - carry on". Fluffy didnt realise "ignore road on right" should be interpreted as "Turn left when there is a turning on the right". Having sorted out the rules I set off to find the cache this morning for my 950th. A very lovely walk to a pretty location and well placed cache. Cache in perfect condition - as you would expect of a Schoolfrenz cache. A puzzle well worth solving and a caching visit. I hope that a further 326 days don't elapse 'til the next finder as it deserves many visitors. This has to have a favourite point from me! TFTC&Tutorial |

... | E109 | GL7VAJTF | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | Lesleyanne | Wondered what we would find here - overheard a conversation between the Water Bailiff and a fisherman. If I heard correctly it costs £28.00 to catch 3 fish, must be cheaper in Sainsburys, and you must not return Pike, obviously a little prejudice going on! TFTC x x |
... | E110 | GL7VAKGA | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | Lesleyanne | Lovely caravan for sale here and only £995, sent my son a picture and said it would solve his housing problem, his reply was not polite so seems we will have to put up with him for a bit longer! TFTC x x |
... | E111 | GL7VAMDT | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Lesleyanne | So many caravans here, just had to wait for the dog walking muggle to move along, hope it did not, you know, on the cache, okay it felt dry :) TFTC x x |
... | E111A | GL7VANA3 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | Lesleyanne | Just got to this one when a man appeared and said have you found it yet. No we replied have only just got here, did we want too know where it was, no thank you and then spent 10 mins looking. How daft it was not difficult TFTC x x |
... | E112 | GL7VANTG | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | Lesleyanne | Think I messed up my logs and this was the one we spent far too long looking for and it was not that difficult to find. TFTC x x |
... | E113 | GL7VAPB3 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Lesleyanne | Lucky there were not many muggles around this part today, imagine it must be very busy at times TFTC x x |
... | E114 | GL7VAPXB | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Lesleyanne | Now this one was proving very elusive and took far too long but then success TFTC x x |

... | E120 | GL7VJ52F | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | Lesleyanne | No luck here for us, lots of snails, thinking a few were getting over cosy with each other, but no cache :( |
... | E121 | GL7VAY0J | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | Lesleyanne | I was sent to retrieve this one, begining to see a pattern here TFTC x x |
... | E122 | GL7VAZK6 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Lesleyanne | At wrong gate to start and playground in use, walked around and playground now empty time for a quick grab, the end to a lovely walk but felt longer than 6 miles! TFTC x x ps Have awarded the series with a favorite thanks for placing x |

... | X-WHER | GL56W1FZ | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | grimmerscotting | #1697 Anybody brave enough to attempt laying a Wherigo deserves a favourite point in my view. Mrs GS and I really enjoyed finding this one and are looking forward to finding more in the future, keep 'em coming Schoolfrenz. I'm having a go at putting one of these together myself so I know how much time and effort goes into laying these caches, well done. Just a bit of feedback, I found it using my Oregon 450T and as I discovered, you have to click "OK" before you exit a zone otherwise you can't see the next one, and one thing that would help is to mention the next zone name in the text so you know which one to select, hope this helps, finding this cache has certainly helped me have a better understanding of how to put together a wherigo cache. Moving on TB to take to this weeks Essex Event cache. Thanks again for a great cache. |

... | E401 | GL56YTNR | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | I was going to do your new series but thought I didn't have the time. So I opted for this 'shorter series', I hadn't done any prep. Had I realised this was such a long series I probably wouldn't have started it but I'm glad I did. |
... | E403 | GL56YV4C | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | This one took a little time due to several muggle dog walkers. |
... | E407 | GL56YVNH | Essex 100 - 4/07 - Conservation | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | The GPS was pointing 20+ ft away. Eventually I made the find. I'm not making a good start to this series. |
... | E408 | GL56YVT9 | Essex 100 - 4/08 - Stilish | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | That's more like it, a slightly quicker find. |

... | E411 | GL56YYFR | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | The coordinates for the sign before you come here are wrong on the sheet. The easting is wrong.
Quick find of the cache. |

... | E414 | GL56YXV2 | Essex 100 - 4/14 - Virley | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | Really great to have been so close to West Mersea. We used to go there as kids with my Mum. I'm currently taking a career break after losing my mum and my best mate at work to cancer last year. It's great to cache so close to such a special place in my life. |

... | E418 | GL56YYY5 | Essex 100 - 4/18 - Channel | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | A quick find. Lovely walk. Haven't see another walker all day. |

... | E424 | GL56YZKH | Essex 100 - 4/24 - Arrow | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | So many places it could be. Couldn't find it. Decided I would use the clue eventually and as I went to work it out I spotted the cache. |
... | X-GW | GL56VED4 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Will Attend | GrooveFactor5 | Will look to attend along with CBailey8. I hope it won't be wellie wearing weather, as the last time i did i long hike in em i though my poor little feet would drop off!!! |

It's been a lovely afternoon, much longer than expected at 5 hours 49 minutes but I found every one, not bad as I was on my own. My track is at http://connect.garmin.com/activity/73097427 it's a spoiler obviously. I'll upload a photo of the GPS showing me back in 5:49.
Thanks for a great afternoon. |

... | X-OHM05X | GL56Z055 | Old Hall Marshes - Mini Bonus | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | Getting close to the end. |
... | X-OHM06X | GL56YVBR | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 1 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | I used the clue and it caused me to waste loads of time. I found the full size cache after about 15 mins. |
... | X-OHM10X | GL56YWEB | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 5 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | Found it easily, it was in full view. Didn't realise I was supposed to get a clue here until it was too late. No worries I have to come by again.
Second time round I added the code to the log sheet. |
... | X-OHM12X | GL56YY5F | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 9 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | The tide is starting to come in. Loads of geese around guarding this cache. |
... | X-OHM15X | GL56YX9Y | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 6 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | I'm getting used to where these will be. Calculating the coords though is taking time, I'm glad it's not windy or raining otherwise my sheet would have fallen apart by now. |
... | X-OHM17X | GL56YWWF | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 4 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | I'm ignoring the clues, they're not making it any easier. |
... | X-OHM21X | GL56YYNK | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 11 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | The rangers are back. Waited for them to move on before getting this find. A different hide! |
... | X-OHM23X | GL56YZCF | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 7 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | The stingers are out. Took longer than it should have. |
... | X-OHM25X | GL56YZXT | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 9 | Found it | TottyAndFatbloke | Another one that took far too long. Great hide. |
... | X-WHER | GL56W9RN | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Write note | Mr Crow | Thanks for your comments and feedback, grimmerscotting. The reason for the OK is that (because of the simple way I've designed the cartridge) some kind of input is required by the cacher to force them to read the instruction. If not, the message would be immediately replaced by the next Wherigo statement. If you need any help with a Wherigo I may be able to assist as I went through a steep learning curve to create my first. |
15 Mar 2011 | RR019X | GL5724N6 | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | My birthday treat (?) A jog of 9.4 miles to here to check this lonely cache. All OK. |
... | X-GW | GL57138T | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Will Attend | gillywig | Sounds like gps may not be required! Suits us sir! Dont Panic envelopes.... hmmm.... should we bring our copy of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? We'll be there... and who knows if we get lost we may stumble upon RR51 !!! |
... | X-GW | GL572H73 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Will Attend | cazmockett | Sounds like a fun event... although I'm really not interested in the competitive side of things. Is there an option for "I just want to have a nice walk, please don't count me in the race"?

16 Mar 2011 | CN | GL57DCMK | Crow's Nest | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Definitely the largest cache we have ever come across with a great selection of goodies inside. Took a scouting TB and dropped off Ziggy TB. Now we have this reference we won't get lost finding this location in future! The Crow was at home and a welcome coffee provided. Crow (aka Schoolfrenz) had been trying for a long while to get us to do some of his caches, and with this month's Essex Meet such a long way from or home, had kindly offered a space in the nest for the night pluus the promise of a great day's caching. (The Great Braxted Wall series followed by Tollesbury Wick Marshes series). SL. TFTC. |

... | E301 | GL57DHNY | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Having limbered up on the Great Braxted Wall series we were off in the company of Schoolfrenz who has been trying for a long while to persuade us to do some of his caches. Completion of this walk would bring our total of caches for the day up to 26 - a good haul before relaxing at the Essex Meet in Westcliff-on-Sea. Cache not exactly where it said it would be but we had no probs finding it. SL. TFTC

... | E302 | GL57DWMR | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Good coords and hint meant a quick find. Full log magically replaced by a hovering Schoolfrenz who was overseeing our progress. SL. TFTC |

... | E303 | GL57DWYB | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Didn't realise Schoolfrenz' shoulders were THAT high - very strange! Found this after short search before proceeding to the sea wall. SL. TFTC |

... | E304 | GL57DXBZ | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The colour grey was how you would describe the view from the sea wall. The horizon shrouded with cloud merging sea to sky and Brrrrr it was chilly, but undaunted, we set off at a good pace (probably slow by Schoolfrenz; standards, and soon had the nano in our hands. SL.

... | E306 | GL57DYC9 | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The sound of silence was broken only by the cries of the seagulls and larks hovering in the gloom overhead, and the tramp of boots along the path. No probs locating this one. SL. TFTC. |
... | E309 | GL576K28 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E309 | GL57DYXF | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Rumour has it that there were originally three posts here....Spied a solitary egret as we were signing the log. TFTC. |

... | E310 | GL57DZHZ | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Exactly where it said (clever litle things these magnetic nanos.......) so quick find and off at a manic pace. (Schoolfrenz is hard to keep up with!) We were treated to a flypast of Brent Geese in perfect V formation. SL TFTC |

... | E313 | GL57E0FX | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Up until this point we had been listening to the cries of many different species of birds (unidentifiable with out binoculars which we had forgotten to bring, and peobablt unidentifiable by us even if we had!) . As soon as we opened the gate and entered the Nature Reserve all went silent - very eerie! Found the cache with no problems. SL. TFTC |
... | E314 | GL576K5D | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E314 | GL57E0ZD | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Found the cache with no problems then between us managed to drop the pesky little thing into the long grass - Oh Joy! Eventually recovered it, SL and strode on to the next. TFTC. |
... | E315 | GL576K6A | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E315 | GL57E18P | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | All along this section of the wall we noticed the shells, 'wall to wall' shells - amazing. Another quick find. SL. TFTC |
... | E316 | GL576K71 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E316 | GL57E1X4 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Thought we'd lost Schoolfrenz here, but no, he was actually behind us - how could that possibly be? Another nice quick find followed by the usual lengthy log-rolling exercise! Meanwhile Schoolfrenz held open the gate for the solitary jogging muggle spotted on the entire route. SL. TFTC |
... | E317 | GL576K7P | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E317 | GL57E28E | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A SEAT - if we had brought any lunch we could have stopped and SAT DOWN.. but we hadn't and Schoolfrenz was off into the distance! And then Rallisalli had to run back to get the last bit of info to be able to find the Bonus cache - Bother! SL. TFTC |
... | E318 | GL576KD3 | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Unbelievable the new nano had already gone walkabout, possibly because of new woodwork at the gate. Another new nano installed. Still very wet on the approach. |
... | E318 | GL57E301 | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Could have done with a dyke-jumping pole here but we reached GZ without too much trouble. However, if Schoolfrenz hadn't been hovering nearby we would have had to log this as a DNF as the nano had gone. A replacement was handed over and we signed the log, got Schoolfrenz to roll it up and we returned it to its hiding place. Does Schoolfrenz realise that this is actually the thirteenth cache on this walk? TFTC |
... | E320 | GL576KE5 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E320 | GL57E3P4 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Okay Schoolfrenz, you said I wasn't to copy and paste any of my logs, so just to amuse/annoy you I've done it here because I couldn't sit down and havew a rest! This is it and if we had brought lunch, no doubt we would have had to eat it on the move!! This is it..... A SEAT - if we had brought any lunch we could have stopped and SAT DOWN.. but we hadn't and Schoolfrenz was off into the distance! SL.TFTC |
... | E321 | GL576KF7 | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E321 | GL57E59C | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Nearing the end of the walk we could just make out the silhouettes of boats of all shapes and sizes in the grey gloom that had descended all day. Found the cache with no problem and listened to the cries of the gulls and the tinkling sound of the rigging on the pasts.as we made our way to the last three caches on this lovel;y walk. SL. TFTC. |
... | E322 | GL576KG7 | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | E322 | GL57E6CW | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | We passed ANOTHER SEAT on a way to this one. A welcome pair of leather-gloved hands parted the clump of ssstingers so that we could retreive this one without injury! Visitors here later in the year will need even more protection. SL. TFTC |

... | RR257X | GL57DDYM | RR257 - Great Braxted Wall 1 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Can't believe no-one has done this series since August 2010 (other than Schoolfrenz himself, who accompanied us today and no, he didn't show us all the locations!)). Solving the puzzle was no problem and the walk is great, with some lovely scenery even on a grey day like today..TNLN. SL |

... | RR259X | GL57DERB | RR259 - Great Braxted Wall - 3 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Schoolfrenz himself, accompanied us today and no, he didn't show us all the locations!). the only problem we had on this pleasant walk was keeping up with the man himself! Homed in on GZ and the cache was soon in our hands. It was here I was told in no uncertain terms, NOT to copy and paste our logs.....- message received and understood! SL. TFTC |
... | RR260X | GL576KVB | RR260 - Great Braxted Wall - 4 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Cachetastic . |
... | RR260X | GL57DF3D | RR260 - Great Braxted Wall - 4 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | .We need to reiterate that no-one need be put off this great series just because it involves puzzle solving. Getting the coordinates from the micros is a doddle, and the way it is set out means that the there and back walk does not feel repetitive.We enjoyed it a lot. SL. TFTC |
... | RR261X | GL576KTJ | RR261 - Great Braxted Wall - 5 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Cachetastic . |
... | RR261X | GL57DFC3 | RR261 - Great Braxted Wall - 5 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | As you walk alongside the wall you can't help thinking about how long it must have taken to build it, and also how amazing that it has lasted so long with generally little maintenance (or so it appears. Took us a little longer to find the location of this cache as the GPS was all over the place. SL. TFTC |
... | RR262X | GL576KQX | RR262 - Great Braxted Wall - 6 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Cachetastic . |
... | RR262X | GL57DFY7 | RR262 - Great Braxted Wall - 6 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A really great series to do and the puzzle solving is a doddle. so if you're reading this log DON't BE PUT OFF by the ??????s as the walk is great. This cache contained a TB from Malta that's been wandering around since 2006 and has been stuck in this cache since August - criminal! SL TFTC. |
... | X-TWB | GL576KKJ | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nanotastic . |
... | X-TWB | GL57E7VX | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | And finally - the last cache for the day before the Essex Meet in Westcliff-on-Sea, and as a special treat, Schoolfrenz rolled up the log for us. Despite the rapid pace, (probably just as well as there had been a biting wind all day), we had thoroughly enjoyed our walk, and the company of course. Just one comment Schooolfrenz, if you write 'Nanotastic' or 'Cachetastic' one more time...........!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH for a great day out. |
17 Mar 2011 | CNB | GL57EBAN | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A somewhat larger Crow chirped in our ear to help us find this bonus cache as we are cheepskates (misspelling intentional) and don't own an all-singing-n-dancing fancy GPS. SL. TFTC |
... | RR001 | GL57ED79 | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Finally plucked up courage to start solving Schoolfrtenz' puzzle caches. Having experienced his tinternet able top rallies last year I felt better euipped to have a go. Really enjoyed the Sudoku. Finding the hydrant was no problem and we set off to find this and Rally Round 2. Lovely walk in the woods serenaded by songbirds in Spring mode. Quick find and dropped off 'The Good Soldier Svejk' who is a long way from his destination! SL. TFTC |
... | RR002 | GL57EEB4 | RR002 - Water Tower | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Didn't take too long to extract the coordinates for this cache. Having found Pups and Jugs Present and Rally ROund 1 we carried on to complete the caches in this area.Birds were singing as we made our way to GZ and along part of the route the lyrics of Flanders and Swan's 'Hippopotamus Song' sprang to mind! Found the cache after a short search, signed lthe og and returned along the track meeting a mauggle in a van arriving to check that his water tower was still there - it is. TFTC. |
... | RR005 | GL57EFJE | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | No problems solving this one - after all we are of the age when we did all our maths with figures like this, writing with a stylus on a wax on tablet......! The route to GZ was a bit trickier - the ground having been affected by what looked as if a herd of horses had recently passed by. Finding the cache was a bit trickier than previous finds too - it was well cmouflaged. Sl. TFTC |
... | RR006X | GL57EGNW | RR006 - Totham Triangle 2 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Almost got it right first time and after a glass oif good red wine it was in the bag! 'Sucess' Really enjoyed this puzzle and the smug feeling of satisfaction afterwartds! A really quick find rounded off this enjoble challenge. A bit of advice for future cachgers who are going on to find Rally Round 7 is to return the way you came and past the designated parking area. We made the mistake of carrying on in the direction we had been going and found the road to be very busy with traffic. SL. TFTC |
... | RR007 | GL57EJ6N | RR007 - Totham Triangle 3 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | My experience of internet Table top rallies helped me solve this one otherwise I think I'd have bee up that creek without a paddle! GZ was spot on so we were soon on our way back to the parking spot. A bit of sdvice for future visitors is to arrive at this cache from Rally Round 6 back along the footpath from 6 and past the pdesignated parking spot. We made the mistake of continuing along the path in a SW direction and walking down the very busy road to the crossroads where we turned left. SL. TFTC |

I received the news on the walk out to the cache. RIP Jim. An ingenious little cache which I glanced at when it was first published but didnt really look at until Tuesday this week. The crux of the puzzle was resolved over a lunch hour but the finer points took another hour in the evening to resolve. Then came the finger nail chewing - would someone else nearer solve it before the weekend? The walk to the cache was in glorious sunshine and after a couple of false starts the cache was soon in hand along with a blank log book. Thanks for the puzzle and thanks for bringing me here. TFTC |
... | X-OHM04X | GL57MJY6 | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi Bonus | Found it | chequerdog | Guessed the location and hoping that the pattern will be similar for the remaing puzzle caches? Took the opportunity to picnic. Tide very high which changes the look of the area tremendously. Took the key ring and left a quarter dollar. TFTC

26 Mar 2011 | DC | GL591VFZ | Dryhen Cackles | Found it | mel-ray | This was way out of our way, but have been wanting to do this for quite some time. Enjoyed the walk on this chilly morning. Out today for a drive through the country doing a bit of traditional, multi, puzzle, virtual, earth, wherigo, driveby, short walk, small series and church micro caching, something of everything, making Saffron Walden a turning point before heading home. We had a good day today having a picnic with the cows, the birds were very active singing their songs and the daffodils are all over in full bloom. The winter walks were nice this year, and seeing the cows out in the fields today, we had to make a detour, not taking any chances. We just want to say to all the cache owners, T4TC. |

... | E323 | GL58Z39K | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | landda | Oh yes, I liked this one. Almost missed it - with the spring growth it was hard to get close enough to look at nooks at crannies without getting scratched etc and then I spotted it on my careful retreat. |

... | X-TWB | GL58Z48H | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | landda | Although we missed one of the bonus clues, using a bit of logic and the remaining numbers and clue we tracked this down. Thank you for the series, we had a very enjoyable day out with our highest daily cache count so far. A fairly leisurely pace took us about 4.5 hours and our activity app logged 8.61miles. |
27 Mar 2011 | CM1292 | GL597A02 | Church Micro 1292 - Tolleshunt Knights - Annexe | Found it | HollynCharlie | A quaint little churchyard that was sparkling in the sunshine today. Some very devious little clues but we werent fooled and soon had them all within our sights. Worked out the where the final was to be and soon the cache was found. TFTC |
... | CNB | GL597E3F | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | HollynCharlie | We couldnt not do this cache today as this would be our first chirp Cache. We pulled up and said our hellos to Mrs Schoolfrenz who was busy in the garden. We switched the chirp on and the reading was ours, this was very exciting, its always nice to have a few new ideas to try. We were soon on our way to GZ and pleased to find the cache. Brilliant. TFTC |
... | RR035 | GL5977Y8 | RR035 - Board Game 1 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Decided to have a nice relaxing caching day and cross off a few that have been on our todo list for a while. Although we solved this one a few weeks ago, it was no easy task getting the co-ords. In fact just starting this one was a mission in itself but after much trial and error we soon realised what we had to do and with some twists and turns along the way, we finally managed to get the co-ords. A lovely sunny walk this morning and pleased to see the cache was soon in hand. TFTC and another great puzzle.Left GC to hopefully to encourage others to come and find. |
... | RR036X | GL597BNB | Rally Round 36 aka Leg-ability 1 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Another that we really should found before now, we never bothered with the Geochecker with the leg ability caches as after last summer we really should know where they are. Slapped wrists for just not coming to find them sooner. The JCB was working near the parking area so we parked a little up the lane and had a nice walk in the delightful sunshine. Its lovely that its so warm. Cache was well hidden but soon in hand. TFTC and now onto 2 |
... | RR037X | GL597CHJ | Rally Round 37 aka Leg-ability 2 | Found it | HollynCharlie | After one we walked over to this cache, lovely to see the blossom in the hedgerows and the birds busy making their nests, spring is finally upon us! Cache was soon in hand and we are pleased to finally have found them. TFTC |

Swift find. As wonderful as it was to be the first to sign the empty log sheet I couldnt log it as FTF as the cache wasn't yet published and sp signed at the bottom of the sheet.

Schoolfrenz, who we had joined on a pre-publication tour, was kinder than Mum and offered the option of return to start/car/electronics or continue on with the most excellent series on a glorious spring day. Right answer given TFTC |

Footpaths took us through some very pretty scenery making it a favourite series for us. Well planned and thoroughly recommended. TFTC |
... | X-WHER | GL597FBV | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | HollynCharlie | Another 1st for us today so we couldnt pass this one by either, we downloaded the required information to the GPS and it was brilliant, really straightforward and alot less confusing than we thought this maybe. This must have taken a lot of effort and time to set up so thank you it was a really nice one for our first where to go and we had a wonderful sun filled stroll around the village (one of our favourite villages) TFTC brilliant!! |

Came back tonight to find having sorted the numbers last night. However unfortunately after an extensive 30 minute search at GZ we drew a blank. It was getting dark by the time we called it a day. We'll keep an eye on this one and hopefully we were having a bad day!

... | CNB | GL59VN1F | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | geotrowel | Having only seen one other chirp, I was quite surprise with this one, as I was with the other, at how close I had to get to receive data. Presumably, in this case, it's delberate and the transmission distance is adjustable? Interesting stuff! Will have to have a play with one of these, once they're 'cheep'.
Quite impressed with the data download. Quickly done and quickly off to the cache.
Went to the obvious place first, ignoring the co-ords (doh!), then looked at the arrow and soon had the cache in hand.
I was always a bit sceptical of chirps (being a bit of a twerp!), almost writing them off as an expensive gimmick, but I really enjoyed this. I look forward to finding some more.
Cheers for the cache! |

... | X-WHER | GL59VK1C | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | geotrowel | Pleasant wander around the village with PW69. Lovely quiet area, with only the odd tractor and occasional car to disturb the peace. Everything works well although, as with all wherigos, it's wise to save the cartridge regularly, in case it crashes or you make a mistake.
The only problem I've had is uploading the .gws file, as wherigo.com doesn't seem to want to recognise it as a completed cartridge. In addition to that, as I seem to have written down the unlock code wrongly, I can't unlock the cartridge on the site. A minor issue, though, with the walk and cache being very enjoyable.
Cheers for the cache! |
30 Mar 2011 | X-WHER | GL59VNCE | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Write note | Mr Crow | UNLOCK CODES There is a fault on the Wherigo site when processing unlock codes. On completion of the cartridge you should have been given a 16-digit unlock code. However when you enter this at Wherigo.com only enter the first 15 digits. That should get you through. |

... | RR015 | GL5ABC1R | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | cookie cook | Our first Rally Round! Took a good hunt and some soggy trousers to find but I wasn't giving up easily.. Suprised at the low amount of visiters although it made finding it all the more enjoyable. TFTC |
... | RR015 | GL5AGCMQ | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | stephia4 | Our first RR cache! Woo hoo. Had a few solved for some time now, so thought it was about time we went and attempted to get some. Unfortunately only ended up heading for this one, so saving the other few for another day! Took some searching (interesting how we could finally work out the anagram - which we are both absolutely awful at - once we had reached GZ area - hmmm perhaps this will work for others too!?!?) Found eventually by Cookie! TFTC! |
... | RR038X | GL5AA2EV | RR038 - Village Haul | Found it | HollynCharlie | Thanks Ray for checking on this one so quickly as we were viewing houses in the area this afternoon we thought it a must to come back and find this one. Pleased to say we found it in the hidey hole we thought it was going to be in. This is a favourite of ours as we thought the puzzle was such a great twist on a good old multi and because of the brain power needed to work this one out as its not as easy as it first may appear. Brilliant Cache TFTC |
... | SA | GL5APQ9G | Steve and Angie | Found it | Bechterew | Vores første skat i Portugal På inspiration fra ABGreen, måtte vi løse denne, da muligheden for en tur til Portugal dukkede op. Tak for skatten Vi lagde en coin ************ Our first in Portugal Inspired by ABGreen we solved this, when we realized that we could visit this lovely country T4TC in coin |
... | TMT01 | GL5AB0X5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | cookie cook | After a helennbrian-a-thon yesterday evening we decided today should be a schoolfrenz adventure! Found quickly.. interesting choice of location! TFTC |
... | TMT01 | GL5AG9YE | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | stephia4 | Nice quick find for the first one :o) TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5AB1CM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | cookie cook | I really enjoyed the approach to this cache. The view reminded me of the Exe Estuary in Devon. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5AGA22 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | stephia4 | Another quite simple find, Lovely little walk so far! TFTC. |
... | TMT03 | GL5AB1H1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | cookie cook | So far so good. TFTC |

... | TMT04 | GL5AGADJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | stephia4 | Knew straight away where it would be, but had to wait for a bumble bee friend to shoo away from the buds-a-blooming in the way... TFTC :o) |
... | TMT05 | GL5AB29A | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | cookie cook | Beware those gas-horn-things in the surrounding fields.. They are loud! TFTC |

... | TMT06 | GL5AGANK | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | stephia4 | Ahaha, watched Cookie struggle to get his fingers around this one before budging him out the way! TFTC :o) |
... | TMT07 | GL5AB5Q4 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | cookie cook | We found the cache quite quickly and after a quick breather headed over the road to the next footpath.. As we got to the kissing gate I noticed the field had horses inside... Im not good with horses! I had one bolt at me many moons ago and have never trusted them since.. They were curious of us and blocked the route! So what to do? After consulting the map we noticed that we could join the footpath at the other end of the field and then try to get across silently.. It was ok for the first minute but then as they spotted us they starting to come at us with speed.. Luckily my two fellow cachers are just as much of a wimp as me so we all darted back to the entrance. If anyone saw us we must have looked crazy.. we didnt get across the field but instead headed up Bakers Lane to #10. TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5AGB1W | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | stephia4 | Found pretty quickly (and my 400th find YEY!) and headed off for our Horse adventure at the next field (as explained by Cookie Cook). Madness! My mum thinks we're just massive whimps! Tee hee. |
... | TMT08 | GL5AB8KA | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | cookie cook | 1/2 left to find... Its that horse field again! Luckily they were still at the other end.. probably planning an ambush! Found it, logged it, legged it! TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5AGBZ9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | stephia4 | Parked up at the end of the road and wondered past #9 (getting that on the way back) to this one... Horse field not so guarded from this end, but thankfully no horses in sight! Grabbed the cache easily :o) TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5AB9NC | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | cookie cook | And so we reach the end. Thanks Ray for a great walk. Good length, varied caches and a small chance of being trampled {:)} Also the pub was great.. Now to Rally Round! TFTCs |
... | TMT09 | GL5AGC5B | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | stephia4 | Weh hey! Finnished (even if it was in a somewhat strange order) Thanks for a lovely little stroll (and on a beautifully sunny and warm day too!) Now off to see what else we can hunt out in the area! |
... | TMT10 | GL5AB833 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | cookie cook | Nice and awake again now. a few possible locations for this one.. TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5AGBP9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | stephia4 | Parked up by the footpath entrance and headed back to where the GZ was expected.; Looked in a few different places but it was always the one we initially expected. TFTC :o) |
... | TMT11 | GL5AB71C | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | cookie cook | Skipped #10 for now.. so headed here from #7.. No more horses so far... TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5AGBC8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | stephia4 | After our fun experience on the way from #7, we skipped 8,9+10 and headed here on the way back to the car/pub... |
... | TMT12 | GL5AB7DV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | cookie cook | Another swift find.. Now to The Bell for lunch before we attempt the 3 straglers. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5AGBJ8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | stephia4 | Grabbed this one nice and quickly and headed back to the pub for a (lovely, by the way) lunch and refreshments. Then headed back to #10 followed by 7+8 from a non-horse direction! |
03 Apr 2011 | CN | GL5AMXWF | Crow's Nest | Found it | cazmockett | #1154 found @ 12:10 Bagged this one on my way to Colchester to visit the parents for Mothers' Day. Unfortunately, didn't have time to stop and say hello. Liked the cache and took Ziggy the cat to move along. TFTC Wasn't able to get the co-ords for the bonus as I don't have a GPS with chirp. Will have to revisit with a friend soon! |
... | E321 | GL5AMRR5 | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Team Keitch | Our last find if the day. A nice quick find and although we weren't too far from the next cache, it was time to find somewhere to feed Rufus. Will return to do the rest of the loop soon. |
... | E322 | GL5AMQ3M | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | Team Keitch | The second of three today. Not enough time to do the whole loop, but we're planning to return again soon. I was carrying the baby which made searching for this one hard, so Becky found it relatively quickly despite the nettles. |
... | E323 | GL5AMP92 | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | Team Keitch | Found this today during a lovely, sunny Mother's Day walk. The first of three today. Not enough time to do the whole loop, but we're planning to return again soon. |
... | E422 | GL5AQ7C0 | Essex 100 - 4/22 - Rung | Found it | mcwomble | #2154 Spotted a family on the horizon and judged we'd be crossing sometime about the GZ. Having I stopped to admire the view for a bit to let them get passed they took up residence and were acting nonchalant whilst obviously looking for something. Went and introduced myself to what turned out to be newbies on one of their first trips out. Sorry I didn't catch your name but welcome to this happy little hobby and congrats to Sedwardson for introducing you to it. TFTC |
... | RR008 | GL5AMPBF | RR008 - Playing Fields | Found it | cazmockett | #1151 found @ 11:45 Having spent the evening with Kitty Cachers earlier in the week solving puzzles, I was able to go find this one on my way to Colchester to visit the parents for Mothers' Day. Got briefly distracted by my cacher's instinct leading me astray. Drew a blank so trusted the co-ords, the prize was soon in hand. TFTC. |
... | RR009 | GL5AMJZB | RR009 - Noughty One | Found it | cazmockett | #1149 found @ 11:20 Having spent the evening with Kitty Cachers earlier in the week solving puzzles, I was able to go find this one on my way to Colchester to visit the parents for Mothers' Day.

... | RR011X | GL5AMW31 | RR011 - HomeBase | Found it | cazmockett | #1153 found @ 12:00 Having spent the evening with Kitty Cachers earlier in the week solving puzzles, I was able to go find this one on my way to Colchester to visit the parents for Mothers' Day.

A straightforward puzzle, which proved to be an easy find once at GZ. TFTC. |
... | RR046 | GL5AMMJD | RR046 - Was No Limit | Found it | cazmockett | #1150 found @ 11:40 Having spent the evening with Kitty Cachers earlier in the week solving puzzles, I was able to go find this one on my way to Colchester to visit the parents for Mothers' Day.

... | RR051X | GL5AMDV6 | RR051 - RGB | Found it | cazmockett | #1148 found @ 11:05. Devious. Very devious. I'm glad I do what I do, or I would not have had a clue. No wonder this one drives some people dotty. Great cache, TFTC. |

... | TMT11 | GL5AHYPF | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | fr8ys | Stopped for lunch before finding this cache and a muggle and his dog came along - the only person we had seen today and doggie very interested in our lunch! TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5AQBZR | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | mcwomble | #2157 Signed both logs just like last time and sure enough there was my moniker at the top of the page. The chicken wire fence is a new addition from last time. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5AHZ10 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | fr8ys | End of a very pleasant 3 mile walk taking us one and a half hours including our lunch stop.

... | TMT12 | GL5AQB5F | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | mcwomble | #2156 Detoured from the Wherigo experience to pick up this new cache. A quick find & TFTC |
... | X-LT2.5 | GL5AKQPP | Little Totham Swan - 2.5 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | When will someone else find this? It's there! |
... | X-OHM21X | GL5AQ4BB | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 11 | Found it | mcwomble | #2153 A quick find based on my original letters from the opening day. Thankfully the weather is a lot fresher than last May. TNLN TFTC |
... | X-OHM23X | GL5ANQM5 | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 7 | Didn't find it | mcwomble | Having come out without the trail sheet I was sans formulae and sans clues. Having texted Schoolfrenz to get the former I'd neglected on the latter. The coords put me in the middle of a bramble patch which didn't seem quite right so looked in all the usual places including as it would seem one suggested by the clue. There looked to have been some repairs made but it would seem from previous logs that the cache was never there in the first place.
Not sure whether this one is missing or whether I was just searching in the wrong place.
Gave up at this point as it would require a further visit to complete the circuit, so wended my way back to Salcott. |
... | X-WHER | GL5AQ9W0 | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Write note | mcwomble | Tried this out this afternoon as I was passing. Using an Oregon 450 and whilst I was at it taking diversions to grab some of the Tolleshunt Major tour caches at the same time. Not sure whether I was driving the Oregon incorrectly but the saved session seemed not to work and I had to go back to the beginning every time. When this happened for the 3rd time I decided to give up. I'll come back when I have more time and experience of the Oregon. |
06 Apr 2011 | CM831 | GL5B8C31 | Church Micro 831 - Little Totham Evangelical | Found it | geotrowel | Nice way of presenting a cache. Enjoyed retrieving the coordinates and enjoyed the walk to the cache. Great stuff!
Many thanks for the cache! |
... | CM831A | GL5B8CCM | Church Micro 830 - Little Totham - Revisited | Found it | geotrowel | Continued my walk in this lovely area after finding CM831. Soon had the cache in hand. Sadly, the log book is very damp.
Great cache!
Cheers, gt |
... | RR016X | GL5B89KJ | RR016 - Chigborough Lakes | Found it | geotrowel | No problems solving this one. Very cleverly thought out puzzle. What a wonderful hide, though! Beautiful spot that I didn't know existed. Thanks very much for bringing me here and the great puzzle.

Cheers for the cache! |
... | RR051X | GL5B8967 | RR051 - RGB | Found it | geotrowel | Solved this pretty quickly a couple of weeks ago but, due to a technical issue, I wasn't able to find the cache until today.
Very sneaky puzzle and a great hide in a lovely spot. Enjoyed this one.
Cheers for the cache! |

... | E313 | GL5BNPTD | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | cookie cook | Slight chance here of being stuck leap frogging a muggle so picked up our pace! TFTC |

... | E318 | GL5BNP9Q | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | cookie cook | So far so good.. nice day but there is serious wind in this parts! The land between the two waters has flooded by stephia4 was feeling brave.
TFTC |
... | E320 | GL5BN4T3 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | stephia4 | Having wandered this path before (years ago before we learnt the joys of Geocaching!), and already found #10 a little while back now we decided to come back and get the rest on wheels. We headed round backwards on a lovely sunny day, that is until we reached the sea wall and were hit with ghastly wind (Typical!) All quite simple finds thanks to obvious clues :o) TFTC. Nice to come back here! |
... | E320 | GL5BNNWA | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | cookie cook | Its been nearly a year since we (stephia4 and I) had attempted this loop. We have walked here many moons before we stumbled upon geocaching and have wanted to repeat it with the added fun of caching. Last time we left it too late and managed only #10. Today we decided to cycle the route. We realized that they weren't allowed when we arrived but I like to live dangerously . Quick find on this one. TFTC |
... | E321 | GL5BXY5E | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | GeoSOM | I was in the marina helping my father move his boat up to Ipswich and while we were waiting for the tide to rise I made a quick dash along the sea wall to grab this one. Shame this is a nano in an area that could have easily had a larger cache. TFTC |
... | RR001 | GL5BRGP8 | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | cazmockett | #1167 found @ 16:35 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Lovely walk to GZ in the late afternoon sunshine. Quick find. Swapped TBs. TFTC. |
... | RR002 | GL5BRBCJ | RR002 - Water Tower | Found it | cazmockett | #1164 found @ 15:10 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Enjoyed an excellent lunch in Great Totham, then a nice stroll to this cache. Actually, the track was pretty rutted so had to pick my way carefully around hoofrpints. Once at GZ, it was a quick find. TFTC. On my way back to the car I met an older lady who enquired if I was out geocaching. We had a quick chat - nice to meet you, Olive Smith! |
... | RR003X | GL5BNJR4 | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | Stones2005 | 1742 Quick diversion to find this one. I didn't have precise co ords because the start of the footpath could have a bit of variation on it, but just looked for likely locations in the general area and soon found. TFTC |
... | RR004 | GL5BNQZP | RR004 - Totham Tulips | Found it | Stones2005 | 1749 A fun puzzle solved a long time ago. Nice area but I got just one sting on my thumb - will be well protected by nettles soon. TFTC |
... | RR005 | GL5BR4PP | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Found it | cazmockett | #1161 found @ 13:05 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. I got rather confused at GZ because I was looking at the old hint! Once I realised, I had been standing next to the cache without seeing it! D'oh! TFTC. |
... | RR006X | GL5BR9F3 | RR006 - Totham Triangle 2 | Found it | cazmockett | #1163 found @ 13:50 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. GPS led me a bit of a merry dance on this one. Found with a bit of persistance. Thankfully didn't turn my ankle on the very rutted track. Some of those hoof-prints were HUGE! |
... | RR011X | GL5BNF62 | RR011 - HomeBase | Found it | Stones2005 | 1737 I hadn't been able to solve this one, but then put two and two together as to where Homebase (as opposed to B and Q?) was, and why this cache had to be moved. A quick google later and a likely location presented itself, which was proved correct today. TFTC and sorry I cheated! |
... | RR015 | GL5BQQ3Z | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | cazmockett | #1159 found @ 11:50 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. I had spent a couple of hours researching vector math for solving simultaneous equations, and just about knew what I had to do (having done similar in my engineering degree 20+ years ago!) and then read the clue! Ha Ha. Much easier.... I should just have ignored the location clue (didn't make sense at GZ) and trusted the co-ords (which were spot on). TFTC. |
... | RR018 | GL5BNWPQ | RR018 - Sheepcoates | Found it | Stones2005 | 1754 Solved this puzzle fairly easily and after a quick walk in the sunshine, the cache was soon in hand. TFTC |
... | RR020 | GL5BNXNM | RR020 - Sains Approach | Found it | Stones2005 | 1755 I was not too sure I had very accurate co ords here (geochecker obviously said "no"), but cache was found easily so my co ords weren't too far out. The log was slightly damp but still able to write on at the moment. TFTC |
... | RR025X | GL5BQTR0 | RR025 - Caroline | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Despite having the correct co-ords for this one, and finding a likely spot at GZ, there was no cache once I got there. Doubt it has been muggled but could have been carried of by local animals, perhaps? Searched several other likely spots but still drew a blank. Oh well, it's a nice spot so I will have to return once Schoolfrenz confirms it's in situ. |
... | RR026X | GL5BQRYR | RR026 - Rebecca | Found it | cazmockett | #1160 found @ 12:05 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Some beautiful flowers in the woods at GZ. Easy find, co-ords were very good. TFTC. |
... | RR027X | GL5BQMD3 | RR027 - Beetle | Found it | cazmockett | #1158 found @ 11:35 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. The puzzle initially had me going, but a rethink and the light dawned. First of the day, easy find. The carpark was closed for resurfacing, so I had to improvise across the road. |
... | RR036X | GL5BRP8E | Rally Round 36 aka Leg-ability 1 | Found it | cazmockett | #1169 found @ 17:40 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. The puzzle was solved quickly and once at GZ, the cache was soon in hand. I lost my sunglasses here and didn't notice until I was half way to the next cache, but I checked on my return and found them quickly |
... | RR037X | GL5BRRR5 | Rally Round 37 aka Leg-ability 2 | Found it | cazmockett | #1171 found @ 18:25 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Easy enough puzzle (compared to some!) but I made heavy weather of the find at GZ. Should have taken more notice of the co-ords and used my cacher's nose |
... | RR039 | GL5BQWAP | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Tried this one as first of the Crow series and could not find it for love nor money. Having found some of the others, I even returned for another look, but still unable to locate it! Argh! |
... | RR040 | GL5BR7AR | RR040 - Mummy Crow | Found it | cazmockett | #1162 found @ 13:35 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. This was a much more straightforward find than Daddy, which I DNF'd. Now on to RR6... |
... | RR042 | GL5BRJD8 | RR042 - Grandpa Crow | Found it | cazmockett | #1168 found @ 16:50 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Another great walk to GZ, thanks for bringing me this way. |
... | RR043 | GL5BREA6 | RR043 - Grandma Crow | Found it | cazmockett | #1165 found @ 16:20 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Quick find after my tea and cake stop at Crow's Nest . On to the rest.... |
... | RR246 | GL5BRW6R | RR246 - The Nearest FarAway Place | Found it | cazmockett | #1172 found @ 18:35 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Lovely walk across the fields to this one. Quick find once at GZ - co-ords were very good. TFTC. |
... | RR247 | GL5BRQYR | RR247 - Panglossian | Found it | cazmockett | #1170 found @ 17:50 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Walked on to this one from RR36. At this time of year, the mud was no problem but the overgrown crops blocking the waymarked path were. On the way back, I decided to take the longer walk around the field which was much easier. Found the cache a couple of feet from where it should be - I guess animal movement. Signed log and replaced in its hidey hole. TFTC. |
... | RR249 | GL5BRXQN | RR249 - Thalamorph | Found it | cazmockett | #1173 found @ 18:50 Out for the day mopping up a load of Schoolfrenz puzzles for which I've now got the co-ords. Pleasant walk to GZ in the early evening light. Quick find once at GZ. Would love to have done Schoolfrenz to complete the set, but was just too tired when I got back to the car around 19:20. Thanks for some great puzzles and an equally great day out finding some. |
... | TMT01 | GL5BNGJT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1738 As I have been totally abandoned by my family this weekend - one in Las Vegas, one in Yorkshire doing practice D of E expedition and one in Norfolk with friends, I decided to come and do this circuit as we had done part of it before. Knew where this was going to be but had to wait for dog walkers to pass. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5BNH3W | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1739 No problems here either as done it before - don't think it was such a gloriously sunny and warm day then though! TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5BNHF7 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1740 Found in a trice. TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5BNHYK | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1741 Quickly found and onwards. TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5BNKH9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1743 The trek across the field was much more pleasant this time as the ground was bone dry. Swapped geocoins here. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5BNMBX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1744 Deja vue here. The fields are just starting to turn yellow, and have that intoxicating smell as I walk past. TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5BNMPV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1745 Couldn't see where this could be hidden at first - but that's not the way to find it TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5BNNPX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1746 Wasn't looking forward to this field after reading previous logs as not too keen on horses myself, but they were over the other side of the field so with a bit of "power walking" I was soon at the other side in one piece. Took badge left TB TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5BNP3X | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1747 Quick find TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5BNRRN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1750 As I was walking to this one,there was a farmer in the field spraying so I thought this would be difficult to retrieve without being spotted; however GZ was totally hidden from his view so an easy find. TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5BNT8H | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1751 Hadn't done this one before but a quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5BNV0P | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1752 And so onto the last - this one will be nettle central soon! Thanks for a great walk - I prefer it now it has been simplified (save the brain for solving Rally Rounds!) TFTseries |
... | X-GW | GL5BKFB8 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Will Attend | Shirst | Well, a would really like to attend log. How could I resist a kitty & schoolfrenz cache? Have long looked at the Hanningfield one done by Kev and thought that something like that sounded fun (not just because of the lego geocacher), and now a chance! Although I must write it down as I keep forgetting pub meets. Am also very curious about the Kitty Kulinary delights, especially after seeing the photos of the cake she made! |
... | X-LT1.5 | GL5BNQ22 | Little Totham Swan - 1.5 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1748 I diverted off the Tolleshunt Bell trail onto this one but not the best idea as I had to walk straight past LTS1 as there were men working just on the other side of the fence who would have seen me if I'd stopped and opened a clicky box! Found this easily but didn't sit down (unsurprisingly!) TFTC |
10 Apr 2011 | E321 | GL5C4Z98 | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Write note | Mr Crow | Re: Previous Log. Unfortunately Natural England would not allow containers other than nanos in this protected area. |
... | PC1 | GL5BXBBC | PolyCache 1 | Found it | geotrowel | Quickly found this one in a lovely location. Really pleasant walk to gz. Made a note of the required info and went on to the next.
Cheers for the cache! |
... | PC2 | GL5BXBRK | PolyCache 2 | Found it | geotrowel | Another quick find after a lovely walk in the sunshine to gz. Took note of the numbers and I was soon on my way to number 3.
Thanks for this one! |
... | PC3 | GL5BXCJZ | PolyCache 3 | Found it | geotrowel | Found this one laying on the floor, away from its hidey-hole. Given the size of some of the ants in there, it was probably them that moved it! Otherwise the cache was OK and I returned it whence it came. Covered up with the camo, so hopefully nice and secure now.
Great spot and another enjoyable cache.
Cheers, gt |
... | PC4 | GL5BXD7N | PolyCache 4 | Found it | geotrowel | Another good hide in another nice location. This little walk has been really enjoyable, especially on such a lovely day. I hadn't intended on finding these today, but I couldn't resist as I drove past the footpath! I'll be back once I've solved the puzzles!
Cheers for the cache and series! |
... | RR026X | GL5BXAZH | RR026 - Rebecca | Found it | geotrowel | Really liked this one. It's an interesting and novel way of getting coordinates. Nicely done.
Lots of snowdrops at gz which made for a lovely sight. Found the cache nice and quickly and tiptoes through the snowdrops (with apologies to Tiny Tim) back to the car.
Great cache! Thanks! |
... | RR039 | GL5C4ZNF | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Write note | Mr Crow | Following Caz's DNF I checked today ... it's there! |
11 Apr 2011 | CNB | GL5CHGRG | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | Kitty!! | The Crow's Nest was our 600th cache, and RR11, which was originally located where the Crow is now nesting, was our 500th. So it is very fitting that Kitty's 100th puzzle cache is this bonus! The chirp was so much fun too - an excellent cache! Has to be a favourite! TFTC |
... | CNB | GL5CHQ67 | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Despite Kitty's 100th excitement the cache was nicely tucked into its hide. |
... | E301 | GL5CBTM7 | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | Shirst | This was not head height - how tall are you?? I resorted to climbing the tree (as I am short I was thinking it was higher than me) without any luck. Re-looked but as a look minus clue and of course I found it (even had a bit of stickoflage). The bag is a little wet but the container & log are fine. I loved the container even if it was hard to undo! TFTC |
... | E301 | GL5CGJYF | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Had a lovely walk and quite an easy find - seemed to be following Shirst around today but never met up. TFTC |
... | E302 | GL5CBVZJ | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | Shirst | This was both easier and harder than the last one. Found it quickly but would you believe it - muggles on bikes with a barking dog. Managed to wait then ducked behind and there was another - dread to think what he thought I was doing behind there!! Thought your idea of the plastic bit to pull up/ out the log sheet was genius. Brilliant! TFTC |
... | E302 | GL5CGKJD | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | We were being followed by a couple with a dog so had to do some waiting around but as soon as the coast was clear we found it quite quickly. TFTC |
... | E303 | GL5CBWVB | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | Shirst | How small are you??? Even though I am small this was not my shoulder height, but spotted the stickoflage & found the cache pretty quickly. It was well comoflaged as it dropped out the hole I thought it was stick & there was no cache! Am really enjoying these so far, can't wait for the main course as it were. TFTC |
... | E303 | GL5CGMEM | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Found after a short search. Onwards to the sea wall. TFTC |
... | E304 | GL5CBY4P | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | Shirst | Am getting in some practice for the event, so thought I'd do without GPS... although I feel that the sheet with photos may be a bit easier than the event :) Clue was spot on for this one which is just as well as a car was driving past as we got there so it made it easy to look at the view whilst grabbing the cache. TFTC |
... | E304 | GL5CGN4N | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Lovely views. Nice easy find. TFTC |
... | E306 | GL5CBZFW | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | Shirst | This was muggle overload. The farmer was sorting out fence posts but luckily was too occupied to notice us, however the car was parked up by GZ with 1 man in the car and 1 standing outside. We stopped for a drink, chatted about high tide and so on but they didn't show any signs of moving. In the end I decided for bold & hope they don't notice. He said that he knew about it as he'd found one last week. May have a new cacher, although I think he thought I was nuts... can't think why! TFTC |
... | E306 | GL5CGNDZ | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Enjoyed the walk. Another nice easy find |
... | E309 | GL5CC1J6 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | Shirst | I don't think it was a rumour about 3 posts (the clue makes more sense), but after a bit of logical thinking I found the right one. However the cache was a bit more elusive. I even disturbed a snail (in case it was THAT type of cache - it's not so please leave the snails alone!!), I did find it eventually but it is well camoflaged by bird poo! Guanoaflage!! Sorry, must be the sun getting to me. Very pleased I have hand wash gel with me! TFTC |
... | E309 | GL5CKWF6 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Found this one quite quickly TFTC |
... | E310 | GL5CC2DJ | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | Shirst | It was here I realised that even though I had starred the caches that had the bonus clues, with all the muggles I'd missed out the number at 2. Fingers crossed I can still work it out. Oh well back to the cache. Clue spot on although I was thinking too much about part of it and missed the obvious - it really is obvious, honest. It was very wet on the outside but it was perfectly dry on the inside. TFTC |
... | E310 | GL5CGP24 | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Found as described. Weather starting to change so on to the next one at a faster pace TFTC |
... | E313 | GL5CC4ZY | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | Shirst | Getting hot now, you would never know it was spring! There were tons of cows with big horns in the nearby field, just glad they were far enough away! Found fairly quickly with aid of clue and I remembered to look at the bonus information. We were very lucky as most of it was obscured by guanoaflage, just not the 2 numbers that we needed - phew as didn't fancy cleaning it up :) TFTC |
... | E313 | GL5CGPC0 | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Another easy find and remembered to get the bonus information |
... | E314 | GL5CC5K6 | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | Shirst | Easiest so far, clue spot on and am still enjoying the walk - lovely weather and company. I am glad the sun is behind us as I think I could get very badly burnt, although I did pay attention to your advice and brought water and suncream! TFTC |
... | E314 | GL5CGPMB | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Found the cache with no problems |
... | E315 | GL5CC6NY | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | Shirst | Was just thinking, maybe we've missed this one and then we spotted something likely looking and there it was. I think the log may have been damp at some point but the container was dry and the log was write-able so no problems. Other than our fisrt muggle for a while - why do they always seem to appear at caches? Stopped for a break and waited till they'd gone. TFTC |
... | E315 | GL5CGPZR | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Another quick find. Enjoying the walk TFTC |
... | E316 | GL5CC7Y6 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | Shirst | Found quick and easy using picture, although the name made me think of a famous song and then started thinking of variations of song titles, well it passed some time. TFTC |
... | E316 | GL5CGQ8W | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Another nice quick find TFTC |
... | E317 | GL5CC8F8 | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | Shirst | Couldn't understand this at first until I spotted something and then it made sense. Lovely place to stop and admire the few sailing boats that were out and to rest our legs which were beginning to get tired. Perhaps this was a long walk to tackle after a winter without much exercise, but lots of fun! TFTC |
... | E317 | GL5CGQQE | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Another quick find and then on with the walk |
... | E318 | GL5CC94B | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Shirst | Oops. Enjoying the walk so much, I forgot that we were caching! Lucily we hadn't gone past this, although was worried that I might have to swim to this but there was just a big puddle to leap over and then it was an easy and simple find. Glad the water wasn't up higher though or it might have been a different story! TFTC |
... | E318 | GL5CGR62 | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Walking up against a strong wind now but still enjoying the walk. Another quick find TFTC |
... | E320 | GL5CC9NQ | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | Shirst | OH spotted this quite quickly which was just as well as after few muggles there were 2 in a boat and one in the fields (practicing golf or measuring/ counting). Another welcome sit down, although it was beginning to get chilly and the clouds were beginning to look ominous. TFTC |
... | E320 | GL5CGRPT | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | We must have been just behind Shirst for this one - we saw the man in the field and we thought he was playing golf (but bearing in mind the location I think he was probably measuring or counting!). Nice quick find. TFTC |
... | E321 | GL5CCBE5 | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Shirst | This is a very odd structure if you look at it closely! Muggles again. I don't know we don't see any for hours and then all of a sudden there are lots. This time round there was the person in the field, a mother and daughter and dog right by it and they didn't seem in a hurry to move! Then a jogger came past. We stopped for a drink and they did move on so we snuck down. I'm glad as we were able to look at the information board near by. It is really interesting so thank you. We stopped here as we took the wrong footpath (we ended up going by & through the marina, I think we should have turned left) and then it started to rain, OH's hip hurting so we retired but will be back to get the sequels, bonus (I shall guess E) and the sidetracked and other nearby ones. Will aim for a sunset picture too as I think it must look pretty spectacular (perhaps not with rain clouds though). TFTC and series so far. Have really enjoyed going out caching proper and having a lovely walk and I look forward to more! |
... | E321 | GL5CGT8H | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | We realised we were running out of time now but very keen to finish so had to get a move on! Easy find |
... | E322 | GL5CGJE3 | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Did the complete walk this afternoon. Later start then intended and took longer than we thought but had a great walk. Enjoyed the views. TFTC |
... | E323 | GL5CGTKY | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Another quick find and a really successful and enjoyable afternoon walk TFTC |
... | RR001 | GL5CHFHW | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | Kitty!! | Schoolfrenz's first RR cache and I solved it in 2009 - unfortunately the geochecker said "NO!" Lot of head scratching and eventually, on 5th September 2009 I met Mr Schoolfrenz for the first time at the Hanningfield TT event and Mr SF kindly suggested I email him ... and so it transpired that Kitty was right ( ) and the geochecker was eroneous and should have said " Go Kitty Go". So, 19 months later, I found myself with an hour or so spare and went looking, accompanied by Mr SF himself. Great cache and puzzle! TFTC |
... | RR001 | GL5CHJG0 | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | And I thought it was only elephants that have good memories! Ah, that fits. Dropped off a collectable Schoolfrenz Pathtag for the next visitor to take. |
... | RR002 | GL5CHE26 | RR002 - Water Tower | Found it | Kitty!! | I started (trying) to solve SF puzzles in order a long time ago. This, along with No 1, gave me false hopes that they could be done by fluffy kitties so not sure why I never got round to finding these before today! Met up earlier with SF on a maintenance visit at Caroline 1 and he continued to accompany me for the other 6 finds of the afternoon. Thought he was enjoying my company but now find it was to make sure I "put back tidily"! Cheeky Crow! |
... | RR002 | GL5CHF7F | RR002 - Water Tower | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | LOL. Good Kitty. Tidy before and after her visit. Dropped off a collectable Schoolfrenz Pathtag for the next visitor to take. |
... | RR008 | GL5CHK8H | RR008 - Playing Fields | Found it | Kitty!! | Solution found whilst solving puzzles with Caz. Cache found with Schoolfrenz. Great location. TFTC |
... | RR008 | GL5CHQV7 | RR008 - Playing Fields | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | These playing fields are usually quiet and not a sole around today even with school out. Dropped off a collectable Schoolfrenz Pathtag for the next visitor to take. |
... | RR024 | GL5CHJJ5 | RR024 - Two Duck Raid | Found it | Kitty!! | I like Schoolfrenz's duck puzzles! Solved with Caz a couple of weeks ago, along with several other SF puzzles, over a glass of wine (which helped the puzzle solving no end!) Schoolfrenz joined me as I looked for this one - but I let SF retrieve the cache as I am non too partial to prickly brambles! Favourite point for this puzzle as it didn't cause major frustration! TFTC |
... | RR024 | GL5CHQFR | RR024 - Two Duck Raid | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Prickly brambles replaced. Visit now - it will get pricklier during the summer. |
... | RR025X | GL5CHAF9 | RR025 - Caroline | Found it | Kitty!! | Finished work early and the Little One had a night away so I found myself with a couple of hours spare to go puzzle caching! Given the recent DNF contacted Schoolfrenz to see if this was now present and correct and ended up arranging a joint maintenance/finding visit! I love these - means you can't fail!
My GPS was none too keen on the trees but this didnt matter as I let SF pick the best way through the brambles to GZ. Like I said, I couldn't fail!
Great puzzle (although it was VERY frustrating!) and TFTC |
... | RR025X | GL5CHBWA | RR025 - Caroline | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Had to keep an eye on Kitty to make sure she left everything tidy. Dropped off a collectable Schoolfrenz Pathtag for the next visitor to take. |
... | RR026X | GL5CHB60 | RR026 - Rebecca | Found it | Kitty!! | Met up with Schoolfrenz on a maintenance visit at Caroline 1 so walked together to this cache. Very scenic - beautiful cover of wood anemones. Expect Caz took some good photos when she visited a couple of days ago. TFTPandC |
... | RR026X | GL5CHC3Y | RR026 - Rebecca | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Had to keep an eye on Kitty to make sure she left everything tidy. Dropped off a collectable Schoolfrenz Pathtag for the next visitor to take. This cache has been lonely and it was pleased with its recent popularity. |
... | RR046 | GL5CHKYC | RR046 - Was No Limit | Found it | Kitty!! | Solved recently with Caz on a puzzle solving mission and accompanied by Schoolfrenz as I hunted them down. Schoolfrenz gleefully informed me that Boris was living by the cache as I was about to retrieve it. Fortunately I am fond of his like and was not afraid. Very sneakily hidden! After the find Schoolfrenz helped me celebrate - it was my 100th Schoolfrenz cache! It has to be a favourite! TFTC

... | RR046 | GL5CHR67 | RR046 - Was No Limit | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | The log's slightly damp and fragile. OK for now and will replace soon. |
... | X-TWB | GL5CGV9Y | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Hardly any battery in the GPS by this stage, started to rain, and getting late but delighted to find the bonus and all of the caches in the series. A very enjoyable walk and liked the accompanying information and photos (tried not to look at them but good to know they were there!). A great series - thank you. |
12 Apr 2011 | RR003X | GL5CGXQG | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | geotrowel | Now I've been putting Rally Rounds 3 and 4 off for some time, mostly because the look of them scared me! On Sunday, I decided to have a proper look at them and, as is usual in these cases, thoroughly enjoyed myself! Great fun, these two, and I had this one solved after about 10 minutes.
A pleasant walk to gz and a quick find. Coords spot on.
Many thanks for a great, fun cache! |
... | RR004 | GL5CGZN0 | RR004 - Totham Tulips | Found it | geotrowel | This one was definitely trickier than RR3; took me a fair bit longer, and a couple of rejections from the geochecker, before I came up with the correct answer. Another puzzle that's great fun to solve.
Lovely walk to gz and a quick find.
Cheers for the cache! |
... | X-LT1.5 | GL5CGY9T | Little Totham Swan - 1.5 | Found it | geotrowel | Didn't take too long to work out where this one was going to be and off I went to find it. What an interesting spot! Didn't risk resting my weary bones, because I fear I may have broken some of them! Great spot and a nice hide.
Cheers for the cache! |
... | X-LT2.5 | GL5CGZ6H | Little Totham Swan - 2.5 | Found it | geotrowel | Really interesting location for this one and a quick find. There can't be many places with a landmark quite like this!
Great cache!
Cheers, gt |

... | TMT08 | GL5CXXN2 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | mcwomble | #2177 Onwards to number 8 and the locale around the cache has significantly changed; it's certainly had it's CITO makeover. I'm sure the owner must know of the cache as it's a bit obvious now complete with it's plastic bag camo. Signed the old log and noted that it was 2 years and 2 days since I'd last visited. It was then that I noticed the field contained the "steeds of Satan" so I made a hasty departure. [Sorry I'm just not very keen on horses!]
On the way back I noticed that I'd little battery life left and with the Swan being open, I called it a day.
TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5CXWJY | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | mcwomble | #2176 (14/30) Helping out on the Essex Ringing course and todays practical sessions having been in the vicinity (Goldhanger & Great Totham), I decided to skip the final theory session and get in a little caching instead. With what looked like a storm brewing I gave the Tollesbury caches the miss and went to Tolleshunt instead. Original cache, new name so signed the old log only this time at the top of the reverse side. TFTC |
... | X-TWB | GL5CRJMQ | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | JamieRR | TFTC - another great series |

15 Apr 2011 | CM831 | GL5CXG8B | Church Micro 831 - Little Totham Evangelical | Found it | vanguard3 | This one hadn't changed & I was pleased to pick it up. Turned out it was last of the day -- and a very nice day too, thankyou very much. #1946. |
... | CM831A | GL5CXFJD | Church Micro 830 - Little Totham - Revisited | Found it | vanguard3 | Another Schoolfrenz pair of puzzles which I very much liked. When I first solved this one in 2009, I got a 'success', but not when I checked yesterday: Glad I looked. Redid the puzzle after I remembered how. A brand new log book when I got to it. This puzzle gets a FAV. TFTC. #1945. |
... | CNB | GL5CXHTP | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Write note | vanguard3 | Unfortunately I didn't get to this one today. I went ill prepared to where to best park to get onto a FPto the cache. I drove past the fingerpost a number of times. Shame: A Wherigo & A Chirp in the same day would have been good. |
... | RR001 | GL5CXB0H | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Walked past. All OK here. |
... | RR008 | GL5CXEW9 | RR008 - Playing Fields | Found it | vanguard3 | And now after that pint my first Rally Round cache. A lot more to go yet--beers & RR caches.TFTC. #1944. |

... | RR043 | GL5CXB59 | RR043 - Grandma Crow | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Walked past. All OK here. |
... | TMT01 | GL5CX7WZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | vanguard3 | The start of the Tour. Parked at the pub & checked OK with the landlord. Thought I should get a bit of practice on some Schoolfrenz caches before the Goldhanger event. Marked the log V3. TFTC.. #1931 |
... | TMT02 | GL5CX8BZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | vanguard3 | Found at 10.20am. Again marked cache V3. TFTC. #1932. |
... | TMT03 | GL5CX8VG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | vanguard3 | Again marked V3. Definitely getting the MO here. So glad I brought the hints print out. Worth looking for before you leave. TFTC. #1933. |
... | TMT04 | GL5CX9H5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | vanguard3 | Another small one with room for my V3' signing'. TFTC. #1934. |
... | TMT05 | GL5CXACK | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | vanguard3 | A bit of a tour here as I missed the footpath, but then foundthe cache fine. Took bouncy ball, left dichroic glass cross. TFTC. #1935. |
... | TMT06 | GL5CXAV1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | vanguard3 | Getting to halfway I guess. marked the log V3. TFTC. #1936. |

... | TMT12 | GL5CXCT1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | vanguard3 | Finished the 12 cache series at 11.50am. Oh dear, the pub's not open. What a lovely series giving me a great walk. Thanks for all the effort spent to construct this. & a FAV from me. Now off to a Wherigo. #1942. |
... | X-WHER | GL5CXEER | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | vanguard3 | My very first Wherigo. I will definitely deserve that pint if I crack this. Using my Oregon 550t, I was delighted to see the screen change as I got to the starting point. Later a bit of finger trouble on the touch screen made me input an incorrect answer. I went back too far in the series to restart, I think. Then off I go again: Suddenly realised I did not know how many stages there were, so how long & how far? I hadn't reset my trip so I still don't know. Great to get to the end & see the good news on screen. Input the code & got the Wherigo log in code: I wrote it down--much too much dependance on electronics so far!! I passed the pub two more times & it was open by then! Thanks for this cache. A FAV indeed. A milestone at #1943 for my first Wherigo. Now to use the 15 digit log-in at the Wherigo site. |
16 Apr 2011 | 1111 | GL5EQ700 | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | JanKeith57 | Some muggles flying a remote controlled helicopter in the nearby field, but they were not interested in what we were up to.TFTC |
... | CN | GL5D2HN0 | Crow's Nest | Write note | gillywig | Unable to make the crow chirp at our OS map but always a pleasure to say hello. Called in on COs and enjoyed a refreshing cuppa whilst exchanging caching and chicken tales. Unlocked this treasure chest to leave a KitKat mouse mat, Jeremy Clarkson book and orange stress ball. Swapped trackables. TFTC |
... | CNB | GL5D2FMX | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | gillywig | Didn't hold out much hope that the crow nesting could chirp to an OS map so had to rely on cracking the clue. Nice easy find at gz. SL TFTC. Off to see the crow and check ducks not ill. |
... | RR015 | GL5D1JRY | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | HollynCharlie | On our way in to Tiptree this morning to see what will hopefully be our new house so decided to grab this cache at the same time as it was fairly nearby. After working out the solution, came a nice hide. TFTC |
... | TMT01 | GL5D2RBB | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | gillywig | Having just spent an enjoyable half hour at the CO's nest where we were reliably informed we could complete the series in under an hour and a quarter(!). So it's park at the pub and off we go. Quick sign of the log and off to no.2 TFTC. |
... | TMT02 | GL5D2V84 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | gillywig | Had to slow down as rapidly catching dog walking muggles. Ooops, too quick as they stop to tell us about the walking possibilites around here. Paused to ponder new options! until out of sight then extracted cache and signed log. Now, as quick a dawdle as possible to no.3. TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5D2VXC | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | gillywig | Muggles still ahead slowing progress, but not by much. Quickly found and log signed and off we go. TFTC. |
... | TMT04 | GL5D2X1F | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | gillywig | In full flow now and enjoying our walk. Found and signed and returned with almost indecent haste TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5D2YWM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | gillywig | Found despite mis-plotting on our map and a distinct lack of footpath. Remembered being here before. SL took bus GC left TB. TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5D2Z2A | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Write note | gillywig | TB drop |
... | TMT06 | GL5D301N | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | gillywig | Missed the turn to here initially. If this were a rally we'd be possibly incurring time penalties! Found signed and returned with the precision of a pit stop tyre change! Having great fun. TFTC. |
... | TMT07 | GL5DMT0P | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | gillywig | Quickly located and log signed. TFTC Now shall we make the tour into a figure of 8? Tempted by the prospect of lunch at the Bell, but no, onward with trepidation, what eqiune adventure awaits us this time. |
... | TMT08 | GL5DMWG6 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | gillywig | Arrived without a horseguard this time. The four horses, white red black and pale (apocalyptic!) seemed to take little notice of us. SL took key-ring left fountain pen. TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5DMY9M | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | gillywig | Left for the Swan and for mechanical agricultural industrial archaelogical, right for Rallying on round. Not much chance of making our target time...enjoying ourselves too much! SL TFTC. |
... | TMT10 | GL5DMZNJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | gillywig | No sign of Mr Bun or the bakery down this lane today. Cache quickly found. Did wonder if the wires affected a gps signal... one day we'll find out ...maybe! SL TFTC. |
... | TMT11 | GL5DN1B0 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | gillywig | (ex Bell 3) and aka to us as young sparrowark corner. Last time all of a sudden this young bird flew into the mesh fencing, stunned itself momentarily before flying off as quicly as it arrived. SL took glass fish/dolphin left 1 euro and gogocrazybones. TFTC. |
... | TMT12 | GL5DNC8B | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | gillywig | SL TFTC. Well ... 'bout a' 'our an' a 'alf... and really enjoyed the tour, thanks. We will have to up our pace for the forthcoming Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail (West) (actually we'll take comiing-fourth now!) Great refurbishment of a good walk. |
17 Apr 2011 | 1111 | GL5DGG8Q | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | eSPeee | Found during visit in Colchester with our muggle friend =) TFTC |
... | CN | GL5DCYW5 | Crow's Nest | Write note | olivesmith | As I keep passing this one as I chase up Census forms in this area - I decided to drop of a Coin and Tb that I have had for too long !!! in the hope that they will have a better chance of travelling !! My apologies to the owners Olive |
... | E401 | GL5DC4VF | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | WG crew | Nice find. |
... | E403 | GL5DC4Z8 | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Found it | WG crew | Great micro. Quick find |
... | TMT01 | GL5DFD89 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | Shirst | Good start to this series as we parked on the road (made the walk a little shorter) but it meant that I thought we'd missed number one, until I saw an object that fitted the clue and stopped to check it out (just in case like) and of course - there it was! After reading V3's post it looks like quite a few of us have similar ideas... One and a quarter hours??!! How fast a crow must fly. I think it took us a lot longer ambling as we did, just like the last series we attempted that was a 3 to 4 hour walk... don't want to say how long that took us (for a short pixie you must move fast :) |
... | TMT02 | GL5DFEXE | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | Shirst | Just as we got to the end of the garden (from number 1) we met a lovely man in his garden who used to live near us and we spent a pleasant few minutes talking about all kinds of topics including the newts and grass snakes in his garden pond to how his wife makes delicious muffins from the fruit they grow. This cache was a little tricky to spot and had to resort to turning in the GPS, but I should have trusted myself because there it was, exactly as the clue said, just took a little thinking about. Edited to add that like Gillywig's muggle, the lovely man also recommended different walks to do round the area - they are obviously very proud of the walks round here (and so far, so good!). TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5DFGX9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | Shirst | Perfect caching weather with the sunshine but a gentle breeze - if only it was always like this! Cache was easy to spot, although we think the letter may need changing in the clue (perhaps someone has moved it?), oh and be careful of the barbed wire close to the cache. It was interesting to see a variation in the paperclip pully system (and just as effective)! TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5DFKDP | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Shirst | Same clue as last but I think this was another different letter really (again, perhaps a pixie has been out moving things?) still easy enough to find as not many possibilities. The map and loop information that you can download (and I did) is really helpful for when you get to footpath cross roads. Oh and as I am in "training", I am still resisting temptation to turn on GPS and am trying to rely on clues only and so far so good. Although now I have said that I will get worse! TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5DFP4T | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | Shirst | Well, I really struggled here. We didn't notice the footpath sign and so carried on past the buildings. Luckily we had the map otherwise I'm not sure where we would have ended up - still didn't use GPS though. So we backtracked and saw the sign pointing through the middle of the field, as we weren't sure we went round the edge of the field and eventually came to an item matching the clue (it wasn't that clear from the opposite side of the field so I am glad we went round). The camo bag was good but the plastic bag inside was split, contents all dry and in good condition. I took lighthouse TB and left the pig TB as it was between two farms I thought it might feel at home! TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5DKFA8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | Shirst | Oops! That's what I get from not using GPS, I looked at the wrong clue item! Well the right clue item but the wrong one if that makes any sense. When I got to the right place (so glad I have the map with me otherwise we might have taken another wrong turn too), the cache was fairly easy to spot, especially as I could work out directions. Although I wasn't expecting the cache inside the cache (I liked both containers). TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5DKFT8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | Shirst | Crawling around for this one, trying to be so careful so that I didn't drop it (wouldn't like the task of getting it back if I had), oh it's on a hook - so much easier than trying to get it without removing it (thank you). Then had to be quick as a muggle was coming, although they must have been slow as I easily managed to sign it and hide it before they had moved far. TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5DKGTT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | Shirst | Horses stayed at other end of field as we played grass stepping stones to avoid all the apples! They did look up as we went past but we obviously weren't that interesting or they maybe they have now been desensitised to cachers? I also noticed the odd camo round the cache (although it does kind of blend quite well to GZ) but it is starting to break down. TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5DKHY5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | Shirst | Odd little dog's leg and almost missed the arrow, but we have seen paths like this before and at least it wasn't straight through the garden! Clue was spot on and OH spotted the equivalent stickoflage. Still no muggles, but a lovely walk so far. TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5DKJE4 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | Shirst | Typical, after no muggles we saw a dog walker going round the field, fair enough as we were between caches. We got to the road, well guarded by three yappy dogs, which almost distracted me but I saw something out of the corner of my eye and without skipping a beat grabbed it and logged it, however just then 3 teenagers came down the road very slowly... tried taking a long time doing up a shoe lace, taking a drink... thought they'd never leave. Eventually they turned off down the footpath and I rushed to hide it again, before anyone else came. TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5DKK04 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | Shirst | Another dog walking muggle as we were between caches, must be the time of day for it! We, okay I, looked under the wrong one at first and then carried on and found it, just where it should be. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5DKM11 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Shirst | End in sight now, as this was the road we parked our car on. Was a bit worried with houses, nettles (glad we are doing it now and not in summer) and an odd smell. Having a tendency to step in things when busy caching and not looking thought I might have stepped in something, but luckily I hadn't. Cache was found quickly and signed. TFTC and a wonderful loop with varied caches, hides and a very handy map and spot on clues. Great caching weather and plenty of bird song - perfect. |
... | X-GW | GL5E8C03 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Will Attend | Rob_Anna | Sounds fun and on a saturday so should be able to make this. Just the two of us. If weathers as good as it is at the moment we're give the full trail a go, i'll tell Ann on the saturday !!!!! |
18 Apr 2011 | E320 | GL5DMYWR | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | WG crew | A welcome rest. First time we have found one like this. Great fun. |
... | E321 | GL5DMYVH | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | WG crew | Found the magnet, no cache today.
|
... | TMT01 | GL5DPA45 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find but had to use our hound as cover until the one and only muggle left. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5DPARJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | chequerdog | Fairly quick fins but as often happens, fully understood hint after finding the cache. TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5DPB16 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find, TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5DPB99 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | chequerdog | Another quick find, TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5DPDBT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | chequerdog | Went across the field on the line of the footpath but in the event would have been easier to go round the edge. Cache all secure, Little pig TB present but forgot to record the number to log it. Dropped off Cachosphere Geocoin. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5DPDWT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find, TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5DPE4T | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | chequerdog | Another quick find, TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5DPF1E | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | chequerdog | Unlike previous logs, the five horses in the field obviously found us entertaining or was it Reg the dog? Dropped off Little Mr Lolly Gang Coin. TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5DPFAV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find and quick sting. TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5DPFXH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find, cache safe secure and well concealed. TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5DPGPN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | chequerdog | Found where expected, safe and secure. TNLN, TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5DPHJZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | chequerdog | Last one in a great circular walk and just a matter of yards from our parked Geo transport. TFTC |
... | X-GW | GL5DMTAA | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | HollynCharlie | Just to confirm we will both be at the event however Jen will no longer be doing the walk |
... | X-GW | GL5DN1R1 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Mr Crow | I jogged part of the course today. Some of the cache hides are already protected by (natural) stingers, so you may want to bring gloves for feeling in green places. The walkways are pretty clear, so those that want their legs tanned could wear shorts. |
... | X-GW | GL5DQADQ | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | PeCeH | Just to say that we are still attending but won't be doing the full competition circuit. Celia has been told off by her foot surgeon for walking too far too soon. Mention of eight miles elicited an interesting reaction from him, so we are trying to stick to walks of a couple or three miles for the moment.. Maybe we can do the first few and then return to the pub? |
19 Apr 2011 | TMT01 | GL5DWWNH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | Gefaell's | Easy find. Golly it's hot today.... |

... | TMT07 | GL5DWWPD | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | Gefaell's | After missing 6, found this one easily. Ran out of time to finish as got dentist later. Will return to finish tour another day. |
20 Apr 2011 | TMT01 | GL5E1PMD | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | Carbon Copy | started early to make the most of a spring day. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5E1PRN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | Carbon Copy | good clue. TFTC |

... | TMT04 | GL5E1Q1W | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Carbon Copy | wonderful spring day - so much blossom. Loving the walk. TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5E1Q90 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Path not obvious, but followed exact route with GPS/OS which was in line with tractor tracks. Easy find. Resisted TB as not sure when next out hunting. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5E1QDG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Oilseed Rape over my head already, apple tree (I think) in full blossom, beautiful. TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5E1QJQ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | Carbon Copy | A busier road than I was expecting so had to do the 'looking at the view' bit while white van man bobbed back and forth. TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5E1QVA | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | Carbon Copy | horses not bothered and stayed at other end of the field - in the shade. Easy find. TNLN TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5E1QZ8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Must sort out my inner compass - otherwise a quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5E1R3H | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Not a soul in sight. Easy find and put back carefully camo'd. TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5E1R73 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Easy find. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5E1RF9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Carbon Copy | Waited for dog walkers and cyclists to retrieve cache and wander back to the pub - sadly just to early for a drink. A lovely walk in glorious hot spring sunshine and dry underfoot. Perfect day for a walk. TFT series. |
... | X-TWB | GL5E28TJ | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | Lennyemmy | On two missions today, 1) to get to #500 2) To finish off all of PuReWaRRioR's caches, in the end I had to miss out 'Homo-erectus' as I was too early and the pub was shut, however all but one isn't bad!
I had to miss this one out when I did the series back in January, as I was missing some of the numbers. I used my PAF who kindly gave me the numbers that I needed so I could grab this one whilst in the area, I now just need to grab #4 that I DNF last time, and that's the series completed. Unfortuately I don't have time today, but I will be back to get it soon.
Cache easily located once I was in the right place!
SL, TFTC :) |

22 Apr 2011 | TMT01 | GL5EJ6RX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Jen decided that she felt well enough to tackle this walk now the evening was cooling (things must be getting better as last week she couldnt have managed it) so we parked up and headed off to the familiar route. Remembering some of the hides was very useful. Nice quick find at this one whilst awaiting for joggers to pass. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5EJ76M | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | HollynCharlie | It was still warmer than Jen had anticipated but luckily we were well stocked up on drinks. Another nice quick find here. TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5EJ7HW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Sounded like the house in the distance was having some sort of rave. Nice quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5EJ83P | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Very hot still, lovely to see how spring has really sprung now. Nice quick find TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5EJ8W9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Remember this field well as last time it was so hard to walk through, smell of barbecues this evening made us hungry. Nice quick find Swapped GC's. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5EJA5R | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Beautiful blossom and blue skies, how glorious for April. Nice quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5EJAPH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | HollynCharlie | All quiet in these parts this evening, everyone is enjoying barbecues by the aromas. Another quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5EJD0G | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | HollynCharlie | well we had fun and games here, the horses were in the distance one minute and then they were bounding up to us the next. Jen had a panic attack as she is not great with large animals (in fact she is petrified) They seem to be really interested in Holly and Charlie. Charlie was shaking like a leaf bless him so we ended up stranded half way down the path in a little enclosure with each of the 5 horses heads bent over... eventually Simon managed to distract them so Jen could take Holly and Charlie to the other end of the field without any problems... this wont be easy getting Jen in a field of animals again. (the joys lol) Cache was luckily a quick find as we remembered where it was. swapped TBS. TFTC and eventful one at that |
... | TMT09 | GL5EJEAG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Another nice quick find here now that Jen had calmed down - heehee. TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5EJF0M | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | HollynCharlie | A few dog walkers along this stretch so had to bide our time, it was here we heard our 2nd cuckoo of the day (as we heard one earlier this morning on the River Tey) really lovely sound of spring. Nice quick find once the muggles had disappeared. TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5EJFEB | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | HollynCharlie | Jen is starting to tire now, feel proud of her today as its the best she has been since Christmas. Another nice quick find. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5EJFX1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | HollynCharlie | A nice quick find to a lovely evenings walk, which we most enjoyed. TFTC and the new series. |
23 Apr 2011 | E111A | GL5EVBHR | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | doctoruseful | Tried to find it earlier in the day but got muggled. Came back in the evening and found it in less than 10 mins helped by Lizzie and Grandad. Took Penguin Patrol TB toward Hampshire, even though the competition has finished. TFTC |
24 Apr 2011 | CM848 | GL5F4DZF | Church Micro 848 - All Saints, Great Braxted | Found it | Linda & Ben | Lovely evening. TFTC. Took pathfinder tag. Thank you |
... | E301 | GL5F8VY0 | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | watsonic | Not sure where to say how much we enjoyed this series — it is everything I look for in caching.
It is an easy series, which is not an insult, but the highest possible praise. Descriptions, clues and hints which (apart from a few subtle puns/doubles entrendres) are unambiguous, and even include photos. Caches are sited every 500 – 800 metres. The series follows a really breathtaking walk along the sea wall, with some stunning wildlife, notwithstanding East Anglia's ugliest building, across the estuary — Bradwell-on-Sea's Nuclear Power Station. We walked the series with a rising tide — I suspect that the wildlife would be completely different at low tide.
I would not be a cacher without caches like this series. 'Er Indoors would not allow me to interrupt a walk to spend 10-15 minutes solving clues every few hundred metres, although the odd serious puzzle is welcome. The series' successful theme is "quick and rewarding".
I love it.
Our interpretaion of "tree on the left" was a bit overboard, so we investigated a small forest The cache is exactly where it says it is. |
... | E302 | GL5FCMVQ | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | watsonic | Exactly what and where it says. |
... | E303 | GL5FCNH5 | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | watsonic | Removed lots of stickoflage from the hole, but no cache. Then Mrs W spotted it on the ground beside the tree. Signed log and returned it to its rightful place, with stickoflage. |
... | E304 | GL5FCQJA | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | watsonic | Very clear instructions. A few people on the little beach here, taking advantage of a scorching hot Easter Sunday (in April!) |
... | E306 | GL5FD8CE | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | watsonic | It didn't help that I was looking at the wrong picture for this. However the co-ords were spot on, so I found it without the picture. TFTC |
... | E309 | GL5FD0VP | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | watsonic | Straightforward. TFTC. |
... | E310 | GL5FCVHV | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | watsonic | D'oh. Previous locations in the series having proved astonishingly accurate, I was convinced that this magnetic nano was about 2m from the stile, because that's where my GPSr said it was. After about 10 fruitless minutes, I resorted to Plan B, which was to trawl through the previous log entries online for a clue. I found one, albeit heavily disguised, and there it was, exactly as described. The plastic bag was holed, so I have replaced it with a new one. |
... | E313 | GL5FCWZP | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | watsonic | I gave the Seawall Siding cache a miss, as the scramble down the bank looked a bit dodgy. This however is an interesting spot, complete with an information board (a bit messy). It's amazing to think that little more than a century ago, this was seriously considered as a site for a railway terminal serving cross-Channel ferries.

... | E314 | GL5FCZ3P | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | watsonic | Chatting, we walked past this one, spotted a likely gate and walked over to grab the cache. Then checked the GPSr to find that the location was about 200m away! Wrong gate. Backtracked to the right gate. TFTC |
... | E315 | GL5FD05A | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | watsonic | Approaching muggle — one of only about a dozen that we met in four hours — meant that this one had to be a found and signed quickly. Magnet on a wooden post: whatever next? TFTC

... | E316 | GL5FD1AM | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | watsonic | As it said .... TFTC |
... | E317 | GL5FD3FN | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | watsonic | Another challenge: an entirely wooden seat with a magnet hidden on it, and four muggles rapidly approaching on bikes. I was beginning to panic when Mrs W said "that looks like metal ...." Lovely spot to sit and wave cheerily to passers-by. TFTC |
... | E318 | GL5FD3VJ | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | watsonic | The approach here was boggy: the drainage channel is very full and creeping over the access path. TFTC |
... | E320 | GL5FD489 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | watsonic | Another pleasant seat. TFTC |
... | E321 | GL5FD5AT | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | watsonic | The sea wall was suddenly full of people with binoculars — obviously a popular twitching site. We loitered by the cache until their attention was focussed in the opposite direction, grabbed it, then looked interested in the wildlife whilst surreptitiously signing and replacing it. Just one good tern after another .... |
... | E322 | GL5FD62R | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | watsonic | Quite a long haul to the next one. Easily found, though. TFTC |
... | E323 | GL5FD74Y | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | watsonic | Since we'd entirely forgotten to collect clues for the Bonus, this was our last of the day. Quite tricky to extract, but you can be sure it will always be in the right place.
Thanks for a thoroughly enjoyable walk in an area which we have never visited before. |

... | TMT01 | GL5F613T | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | jess_neal | We made the most of being with family to do a series together. Quick find, no problems, just as the hint described. Neal was enjoying having the info on paper, Paul and Jane with a GPS and I.... moseyed along in the sun! |
... | TMT02 | GL5F5EAV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Glad it was dry today. TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5F61QZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | jess_neal | Very speedy - Neal was in the lead picking the caches up before others had even got near! |
... | TMT03 | GL5F5FVN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Seems to be a pattern emerging now if it looks dirty or in the nettles its Biffs turn to retrieve!!!! TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5F62A1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | jess_neal | Although I was the only one with full length trousers I let others go straight to the spot - nettles and all! |
... | TMT04 | GL5F5GH5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Still very hot today but just a hint of a breeze. TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5F62NK | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | jess_neal | Similar to the last cache so no problems finding it. |
... | TMT05 | GL5F5KJZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | Gus&Biff | We too walked past as we were 'greeted' by dog from house and had to back track and walked round edge. Cache found easily but not Biffs turn must be a clean one!!! TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5F65QW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | jess_neal | Missed the footpath as we were distracted , chatting and a barking dog, we had to back-track a little. However, the footpath isn't clear and very bumpy around the edge of the field. Neal found this swiftly (pleased to add to his found tally). We picked up a GC heading to Germany a little too late as we've just returned from Central Europe! We dropped off a TB (TB1RCDW) that has been travelling around Eurpore with us for 2 weeks, time for a rest in a field. |
... | TMT06 | GL5F5MKJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Nice easy find and as this was halfway our official water carrier (Gus) allowed us a drink stop!!! |
... | TMT06 | GL5F66B1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | jess_neal | After a brief direction check we soon had the cache and took a break. |
... | TMT07 | GL5F5NKX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Quick find again after another lesson in compass points without a compass.Thanks teacher!!! TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5F686W | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | jess_neal | No problems again, quick find. |
... | TMT08 | GL5F5QXV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Horses looked up as we entered feild but then ignored us, cos we haven't got one of those darn dogs said Gus!!! Cache found easily but disagreement between Neal & Jess as to how it was replaced!!! TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5F69HA | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | jess_neal | No problems finding, swapped TB's. On replacing Neal and I disagreed over the placement of the white bag handles - think camouflage Neal! |
... | TMT09 | GL5F5VX5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Missed by 3 members of the team but they were made to find it Biff was fed up with nettles. TFTC |
... | TMT09 | GL5F6AGV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | jess_neal | Biff spotted quickly and stated she could see it. The rest of us came to look from here perspective and all frowned "Where?" slowly it dawned on the rest of us. |
... | TMT10 | GL5F5XXE | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Must be clean & dry Gus retrieved this!!! TFTC |
... | TMT10 | GL5F6BB5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | jess_neal | The men got it as the ladies changed GPS batteries over. Gus gave up GPS duties to retrieve the cache. |
... | TMT11 | GL5F5Z8Z | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Guess what down low risk of mud Biff sent in!!! Jess in charge of GPS apparently!!!! TFTC |
... | TMT11 | GL5F6CTW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | jess_neal | "Which direction did you say?" asked Neal after stretching his arm under the bridge through wire. The cache was in the opposite corner to the instructions he was given (by his mum!). Neal grumbled "SE indeed can't you see where the sun is!?" |
... | TMT12 | GL5F624X | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Gus&Biff | Last of the day worked up a good appetite and thirst luckily there was suitable refreshments round the corner. Can send family back to Norfolk happy now. Thanks for taking us for a lovely walk in the hot sunshine in April. |
... | TMT12 | GL5F6EBT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | jess_neal | Quick easy find at the end, just like the rest of the series. Thanks for setting it Now off to the pub for refreshments, luckily food is served 12-4 on Sundays so we didn't miss the usual 2.00 cut off! |
25 Apr 2011 | CM831 | GL5FN2YM | Church Micro 831 - Little Totham Evangelical | Found it | cazmockett | #1192 found @ 16:50 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. I seemed to find the brambly route to this one - ouch. Soon found when in the right place. Swapped some goodies. TFTC! |
... | CM831A | GL5FN1E2 | Church Micro 830 - Little Totham - Revisited | Found it | cazmockett | #1191 found @ 16:30 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles.

... | E318 | GL5FH1D1 | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Knights81 | Found it, removed it, put a 6" slash in my arm from the wire next to it. Sorry didn't sign as i couldn't get the log out and was bleeding at the time! Cleaned everything and replaced.... carefully! |
... | E320 | GL5FH48D | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | Knights81 | Found it, but there was a lady on the seat who was rooted there for the day I think! To avoid it getting muggled I did not sign, just attended my arm (see 8A)! I'm claiming it anyway :-) |
... | E321 | GL5FH4MD | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | Knights81 | Easy find, no muggles here! |
... | E322 | GL5FH58B | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | Knights81 | I hate stinging nettles... I really do. What was I thinking wearing shorts?! |
... | RR007 | GL5FN8MA | RR007 - Totham Triangle 3 | Found it | cazmockett | #1194 found @ 17:30. Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. I seemed to have the wrong clue for this one, so once I didn't find it, I looked again at the cache listing and solved the anagram in the field (unusually for me). Then a quick find. TFTC. |
... | RR010 | GL5FNCBV | RR010 - 01derful | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Hmmm. Though I'd got the co-ords right, but when I got to GZ, it appeared to be in the middle of a field. Will have to recheck. |
... | RR014 | GL5FNDRJ | RR014 - Permissive Tree | Found it | cazmockett | #1197 found @ 19:30 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. Last of the evening, as it turned out. Quick find, nice scenery. TFTC. |
... | RR025X | GL5FMYQK | RR025 - Caroline | Found it | cazmockett | #1190 found @ 16:05 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. I was so close last time, I really don't know why I didn't spot it then! D'oh! Oh well, at least its ticked off the list now. TFTC. Took path tag and swapped some goodies. |
... | RR039 | GL5FMQ1T | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Found it | cazmockett | #1189 found @ 15:30 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. Really no idea why I DNF'd this last time, I swear I looked here! Obviously not hard enough... guess that's how it goes somethimes |
... | RR041 | GL5FN656 | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | cazmockett | #1193 found @ 17:10 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. Quick find, just needed to wait for muggles to pass before I bagged this one. TFTC. |
... | RR048 | GL5FNF2N | RR048 - Bowstead Bush | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Although I hadn't solved the numbers, I did manage to decrypt the clue whilst in the field, and given there was a finite path to check and I was nearby, I thought I would chance my arm and have a look. Sadly, I didn't find it, and got quite badly brambled for my troubles. Ouch. Oh well, I guess I will just have to crunch the numbers and have a look another time. |
... | RR248 | GL5FNAXD | RR248 - Schoolfrenz | Found it | cazmockett | #1195 found @ 18:00 Out for an afternoon mopping up more Schoolfrenz puzzles. Approached this from the SW as I found some caches from that direction too. Unfortunately, the farmer seemed to have forgotten to leave a path across the field of oilseed rape. I took a detour almost to the edge of the field until I found a suitable way through. Easy find once at GZ. TFTC. |
... | X-TWB | GL5FH657 | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | Knights81 | Found the bonus... although my co-ords seemed a little out, retraced some steps and bingo! Thanks for the series, a really lovely walk on a cracking day! |

... | E411 | GL5GGTGD | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Found it | Ronb52 | Another quick find, but, this is where the day all went wrong for me. I thought I'd take a photo but discovered my camera was missing, it had somehow fallen off my belt. What to do now? I decided to retrace my steps on the off chance that I might find it, but it wasn't to be. This made the walk extremely long, much longer than I would normally undertake. So if anyone out there finds a mini Panasonic camcorder you know where it belongs. I picked up a couple more of the mini series before giving up for the day because I was so tired. TFTC |

... | X-OHM15X | GL5GGRR7 | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 6 | Found it | Ronb52 | I'm sure someone is messing with some of the caches, many of them don't tie up with the clues. Soon found. TFTC |

... | X-OHM23X | GL5GGTRK | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 7 | Found it | Ronb52 | This one took a while. For some reason my GPS put me right between several gates, all with round posts. Which one? I tried them all several times and, as always it was in the first place I had looked. TFTC |
... | X-OHM25X | GL5GGV0M | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 9 | Didn't find it | Ronb52 | I was getting very tired now, especially after having doubled the walk length to look for my lost camera. Rooted about here but didn't manage to find anything and as I was so tired with a fair walk still to get to the car I decided to call it a day and head for the car and home. |

After doing all the boaty bits. I set off with the skipper in toe to get the Tollesbury Wick sea wall series of caches. It was a very sunny but blustery day and while signing each log I prayed it would not fly away. Really enjoyed the walk, lovely scenery all the way round, By the time we got back to Woodrolfe creek there was no sign of any water just boats up on the mud banks. On the walk we saw various butterflies, a hare and numerious birds.Thank you for setting this series of caches.

... | X-TWB | GL5H8P2B | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | starguider | Arrived at Tollesbury marina around midday, having spent an uncomfortable night off West Mersea. After doing all the boaty bits. I set off with the skipper in toe to get the Tollesbury Wick sea wall series of caches. It was a very sunny but blustery day and while signing each log I prayed it would not fly away. Really enjoyed the walk, lovely scenery all the way round, By the time we got back to Woodrolfe creek there was no sign of any water just boats up on the mud banks. On the walk we saw various butterflies, a hare and numerious birds. As I had started from a different point I had to set off again to find this.Thank you for setting this series of caches. |
01 May 2011 | CM831A | GL5HE9QP | Church Micro 830 - Little Totham - Revisited | Found it | We do checks and cache | 3rd attempt at this one. Didn't find it.

... | CN | GL5H8YBA | Crow's Nest | Write note | We do checks and cache | Visited the cache again so that we could try out a Chirp cache. Once again Ray and Christine offered us hospitality as we were passing through, coffee and hides. Also dropping off 4 tbs. |
... | CNB | GL5HE96M | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | We do checks and cache | Our first chirp! We stood and peered at the GPS and sure enough there was the info. Technology huh? Mr P headed off in completely the wrong direction, appearing back a few minutes later. "It's not that way" he said. Hmm? Why did he go that way then? Anyway shortly later, he came back having signed the log. Hooray! TFTC |

... | RR017 | GL5HEADR | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | We do checks and cache | 3rd attempt at this one too. Having spoken to Ray before our visit to this cache, we said we were confident of a find this time. We had deciphered the hint. All was well. How hard could it be to find a cache beneath a hinged ring??????? Oh how we laughed. It's not our fault the CO has anagrams with multiple answers!!. With the correct hint, the cache was soon found. It was nowhere near a hinged ring!! SL TFTC |

... | RR051X | GL5HE7CH | RR051 - RGB | Found it | We do checks and cache | Once you recognise what was where, it tied in with one of Schoolfrenz earlier puzzles and we soon had an answer. 2nd cache of the day, we couldn't decipher the hint so just looked for obvious things. There were two. Lucklily it was in the first place we looked. TNLN SL TFTC |

... | E303 | GL5HDXWW | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | Ronb52 | Had returned to finish the Old Hall Marsh Series and as I still had plenty of daylight left I thought I'd return for 3 previous DNFs on the TW series. Soon found exactly where it should have been. The cache was a bit exposed and was at risk of being spotted by muggles so I hid it up a little better. TFTC |
... | E310 | GL5HDY4C | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | Ronb52 | Had returned to finish the Old Hall Marsh Series and as I still had plenty of daylight left I thought I'd return for 3 previous DNFs on the TW series. Quite a walk to get here, still only one more after this. Cache was exactly where it should have been. TFTC |

Forgot just how far this walk was, still must soldier on, just need this to complete the series. Found very quickly, first place I looked. I know I looked here at previous visit but it wasn't there then. Still found it this time. So that's both the Old Hall series and the Tollesbury Wick series finished. A long walk or what? Wow, was it worth it, you bet it was. TFTC |
... | X-OHM02X | GL5HDXF6 | Old Hall Marshes - Bonus' Bonus | Found it | Ronb52 | After my recent dissapointing day when I gave up on this series, I decided to return, at least I might finish the series as a consolation.

... | X-OHM04X | GL5HDX3V | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi Bonus | Found it | Ronb52 | After my recent dissapointing day when I gave up on this series, I decided to return, at least I might finish the series as a consolation.

04 May 2011 | CNB | GL5HR6JM | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | Woking Wonders | We did our first Chirp cache a few weeks ago, and although WW1's Oregon 300 detected the chirp WW2's Oregon 550 failed to do so. Therefore we were keen to know what happened here, especially as we had a good idea where the chirp was hidden.
Parked at a location we have used a couple of times before. WW1 had already turned chirp searching on and very soon his Oregon started downloading the information. WW2 turned chirp searching on and....nothing. Got out of the car to move closer to the where we thought the chirp was and still nothing. So it looks like we will need to talk to Garmin about this.
With the information we now had we headed off and as we arrived the anagram made sense and a quick find followed. TFTC #6220 |
... | RR003X | GL5HR2YE | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | Woking Wonders | Solved this a long time ago but never got round to doing it on our previous visits to the area. Really enjoyed this puzzle which get me amused for a couple of lunchtimes at work.
Left WW2 with the car and headed off to GZ. Chose the wrong item to search initially, and then moved to the correct one. TFTC #6215 |
... | RR019X | GL5HRDNW | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Didn't find it | Woking Wonders | Solved this one a long time ago but because it was a fair walk we had skipped it on our previous visits to the area.
Today we had a bit more time so set off and soon arrived at the golf course. There seemed absolutely no indication of where the footpath went, and being a lovely afternoon there were a lot of golfers out. All I could do was to follow the line of the footpath on the OS map on my Oregon, all the time keeping a look out for golfers that might be hitting in my direction.
Arrived safely at GZ and found something that matched the hint. Unfortunately the nearby area was popular with the golfers. No sooner had one group left the next was approaching, and I felt quite conspicuous where I was. There were quite a few nettles around the hint item and I had not brought a stick with me, so I did the best I could before giving up, resolving to come back on a quieter day. |
... | RR034 | GL5HRE7Z | RR034 - Proxim.Ity.me.uk | Found it | Woking Wonders | I have solved virtually all the RR puzzles without hints, but this was one of the couple of exceptions. Obvious when you find out what it is about, and with some online resources I soon had a solution.
A pleasant walk to GZ with a lot of bluebells nearby.
Took TB TFTC #6225 |
... | RR039 | GL5HR4RP | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Found it | Woking Wonders | Another easy puzzle and like RR41 another cache and dash. TFTC #6218 |
... | RR040 | GL5HR5E1 | RR040 - Mummy Crow | Found it | Woking Wonders | Another easy puzzle and third RR cache that was a cache and dash. Once again WW2 stayed with the car in case anything came down the road. TFTC #6219 |
... | RR041 | GL5HR46N | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | Woking Wonders | No problems with solving this one, and a quick cache and dash. TFTC #6217 |
... | RR042 | GL5HR8E8 | RR042 - Grandpa Crow | Found it | Woking Wonders | One of the two entertaining puzzles of this group of 5 and an enjoyable one. Came on from RR43 and another quick find and a very familiar style of hide. TFTC #6222 |
... | RR043 | GL5HR81W | RR043 - Grandma Crow | Found it | Woking Wonders | The first three puzzles of this group of five were solved very quickly. This one took a bit more work but I enjoyed it.
WW2 stayed with the car while WW1 headed off for this one and RR42. I had preconceived ideas of what the hint meant, but as I came away from the road decided it had to be something else. A quick fine and what was by now a familiar type of hide. TFTC #6221 |
... | RR044 | GL5HRC2J | RR044 - Ms Kitty | Found it | Woking Wonders | An easy puzzle. Once again WW2 stayed with the car while WW1 went off to find the cache. TFTC #6223 |
... | RR049 | GL5HR3J7 | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | Woking Wonders | This is one that appeared after our last visit to the area and another good RR puzzle. Easy find at GZ. TFTC #6216 |

... | CN | GL5J4YQB | Crow's Nest | Found it | Lennyemmy | My new GPS arrived today, and I was desperate to give it a go, and also to do a chirp and wherigo! So off me and PuReWaRRioR69 went for a bit of spontaneous caching, and what a laugh we had!
We ended up taking a bit of a detour to this one.......we were getting confused as to why the co-ords were in a field and made several wrong turns before we realised GPS was navigating to the bonus and not the traditional, lol!
Anyway we eventually arrived, and WOW what a cache, I was amazed! Certainly the biggest cache I have seen so far!
It is so packed with stuff it took a while to find the log book, lol! Brilliant, loved this one!
Now to do the chirp, woo hoo!
SL, TFTC :) |
... | CNB | GL5J51JT | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | Lennyemmy | My new GPS arrived today, and I was desperate to give it a go, and also to do a chirp and wherigo! So off me and PuReWaRRioR69 went for a bit of spontaneous caching, and what a laugh we had!
This was one of the aims of the evening, my first chirp!!!! Woooo hooooo!
As we pulled up at the 'Crow's Nest' in the car, my GPS picked it up straight away, we were very impressed, I was expecting to have to get a lot closer to pick up a signal.
Once at GZ, it took me a little while, as I'm not very good with the GPS yet, and I ended up going round in circles for a minute or two, with PW69 sat laughing at me in the car! I then went back to where I had started and spotted this fab little hide.
Thank you very much for setting up this chirp, I really enjoyed trying something new.

... | TMT12 | GL5J58BM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Lennyemmy | My new GPS arrived today, and I was desperate to give it a go, and also to do a chirp and wherigo! So off me and PuReWaRRioR69 went for a bit of spontaneous caching, and what a laugh we had!
Grabbed this one whilst doing the Wherigo, as it seemed silly not too!
I found it on the ground, and not on the hook, replaced back how it should be.
A neat little hide.
I will be back soon to do the whole series.
SL, TFTC :) |
... | X-WHER | GL5J57BD | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | Lennyemmy | My new GPS arrived today, and I was desperate to give it a go, and also to do a chirp and wherigo! So off me and PuReWaRRioR69 went for a bit of spontaneous caching, and what a laugh we had!
Tonight was the night for firsts, my first trip out with my new GPS, my first chirp, and now......my first WHERIGO! Wooo hoooo!
Well what a giggle we had with this one!
To start with all was going well, we pulled up in the pub car-park and locked on to the first location and then the second, however at the third I put the answer in wrong....ARRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH......we couldn't work out what to do, so back we went again to the pub car-park.......
Luckily we had decided to drive as it was dark, because in the end we lost count of the number of times we had been back to the beginning to start again..........we got it down to a fine art, and worked out that you didn't have to actually stop for it to lock onto the location, so we just drove through the car-park and out the other side to the next location, people must have wondered what on earth we doing!
The penultimate time, we had almost reached the end, when we decided to save it in case we got it wrong, and then couldn't seem to get back in again........so back we went again! Hahahahahaha!
We honestly must have driven through that car-park 10 times I reckon!
The brief pause between pressing the green tick to confirm, and CORRECT coming up is a VERY tense moment I can tell you!
( Having got home and re-read the description, we have now realised that we needn't of gone back to the start each time, and that leaving the area and going back in would have allowed us to re=enter the answer.....oh well.....you live and learn! LOL! )
Eventually we managed to get all the answers correct and reached GZ where more laughs were had! I got out the car, and fell down a huge hole! Hee hee! However once I found a better route it was a nice quick find, in brilliant spot, a perfect little hidey hole for a cache.
I noted down the unlock code, and using just the first 15 digits as suggested have successfully unlocked it on the wherigo site.
Another new experience, I really really enjoyed this one, thanks for taking the time to set this up.

07 May 2011 | CN | GL5J190F | Crow's Nest | Found it | popndora | great cache, dropped off captain harpoon hammy TFTC |
... | CN | GL5J86PE | Crow's Nest | Found it | andyandchris | Brilliant cache! We called in here on our way to do the Tolleshunt Major Tour series. We dropped off a Geocoin and left a CD, took a TB and some plasticene. TFTC. |

... | TMT06 | GL5J89KV | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | andyandchris | Nice walk in the country with easy to find caches (thanks to the hints). Twelve out of twelve found. The path on the way to this one was rather overgrown, but passable. TFTC. |
... | TMT07 | GL5J8A32 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | andyandchris | Nice walk in the country with easy to find caches (thanks to the hints). Again, the section of path to this cache was rather overgrown by the rape crop in the adjacent field. TFTC. |
... | TMT08 | GL5J8AGJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | andyandchris | There are horses in the field leading to this cache, so not suitable for those with a fear of horses. Cache found easily, left mini-Barbie, took die. TFTC. |
... | TMT09 | GL5J8AXN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | andyandchris | Had to hang around till a family of muggles passed by on the adjacent footpath before hunting for this one. Just managed to squeeze our entry on to the log, which is now FULL. TFTC. |

08 May 2011 | E424 | GL5NN1GE | Essex 100 - 4/24 - Arrow | Found it | Ronb52 | Nice quick find, from memory. I just noticed that I didn't have this logged so decided to get it done today 25/5/11 TFTC |
... | PC1 | GL5JEB51 | PolyCache 1 | Found it | cazmockett | #1201 found @ 14:20. Quick find to start the series. Swapped TBs and calculated co-ords, then set off for the next cache. |
... | PC2 | GL5JEEM0 | PolyCache 2 | Found it | cazmockett | #1202 found @ 14:35 Quick find, took numbers and calculated the co-ords for 3 and 4. |
... | PC3 | GL5JENYV | PolyCache 3 | Found it | cazmockett | #1205 found @ 15:30 Backtracking from the other caches to grab this one, a quick find and quite glad of some shade. |
... | PC4 | GL5JEGMP | PolyCache 4 | Found it | cazmockett | #1203 found @ 15:00 Someone was clearing out the nearby shed but they were very busy and didn't see me. I found, signed and replaced as quickly as possible and moved on to the next one. TFTC. |
... | RR022X | GL5JER8X | RR022 - PolyCache 5 | Found it | cazmockett | #1206 found @ 15:40 Last of the series, I was just replacing the cache and preparing to walk back to the car when a dog-walking muggle hove into view. Good timing! Lovely little series, thanks for the walk. |
... | RR023X | GL5JEMG6 | RR023 - Sum Problem | Found it | cazmockett | #1204 found @ 15:15 Peaceful location, nobody about. I was able to search several options and found quite quickly in the end. TFTC. |
... | TMT01 | GL5JEV53 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | cazmockett | #1207 found @ 16:35 Having parked at the Bell and downed a welcome pint of lemonade, I set off for this series. Quick find for number one. |
... | TMT02 | GL5JEW1Y | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | cazmockett | #1208 found @ 16:45 Another straightforward find, TFTC. |
... | TMT03 | GL5JEWXB | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | cazmockett | #1209 found @ 16:50 Another quick find, TFTC. |
... | TMT04 | GL5JEXNQ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | cazmockett | #1210 found @ 17:00 Nearly got muggled when replacing this one, but I think the two dog-walkers were too busy chatting to notice what I was up to. |
... | TMT05 | GL5JEZ44 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | cazmockett | #1211 found @ 17:20 Dropped off GC in this one, as I figured it would probably get some regular traffic. TFTC. |
... | TMT06 | GL5JF13T | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | cazmockett | #1212 found @ 17:35 A bit of a trek from the previous one, the path was tricky but passable. Made a bit of meal of this one, making it more difficult than it should have been! Suppose I should have thought logically first. |
... | TMT07 | GL5JF279 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | cazmockett | #1213 found @ 17:50 Waded my way through the oilseed and cow parsley, finally getting to the road! Not a car in sight, which meant I was able to grab the cache without arising suspicion. TFTC. |
... | TMT08 | GL5JF4YZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Didn't find it | cazmockett | This is where it all went a bit wrong... when I first crossed the road from number 7 and set foot in the field I didn't notice the horses, but got about half way across the field when they noticed me, and came bounding over. Whilst I'm not actually scared of horses, I wasn't keen, as a lone walker, to be pitted against half a dozen frisky beasts. As cowardice is the better part of valour, I escaped to another footpath on the left via a gate. The horses watched me over the fence, and although they seemed friendly enough, they wouldn't let me back into their field! I resolved to take a detour via the road to the west. But it was a bit of a stressful route to that too, as the field I chose as my escape route then produced three very yappy dogs who were very keen to see me off their turf! The little barking rat I wasn't too worried about, but the large woofy bulldog was another matter... Ah well, I got out without a hitch in the end. And on to number nine. |
... | TMT09 | GL5J8B0N | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Needs Maintenance | andyandchris | Log full. |
... | TMT09 | GL5JF61D | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | cazmockett | #1214 found @ 18:20 After my incident with the horses at number 8, I was relieved to find this one without a hitch. Just about managed to sign the log, it's now fit to burst. |
... | TMT10 | GL5JF6YT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | cazmockett | #1215 found @ 18:35 Straightforward find, the cachers' trail was a little obvious! |
... | TMT11 | GL5JF7TQ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | cazmockett | #1216 found @ 18:45 Quick find, but I had to walk on and backtrack to replace the cache as a dog-walking muggle came along just at the wrong moment. Safely back in place once they had passed. |
... | TMT12 | GL5JF9CY | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | cazmockett | #1217 found @ 18:50 Last of the day, and I managed all but one of the series. I'll have to go back another day with a horse-whisperer to find number 8! Thanks for a good walk. |

When we went on to the next footpath over the road on towards #8 there was a field of horses. Both happileigh and I have had bad experiences with fields of horses, but luckily we found out that there was a path just up the road which would get us to our destination horse free. Phew. |

The route is a there and back circular tour of 8 miles, but this does include a 2 mile loop through Chigborough Nature Reserve. So skip the latter and you cut down to 6 miles in total.
The only other possibility is to miss out caches 7 and 8 on the main tour which saves another 0.5 miles.

All the route descriptions between caches will be mini poems. Here's an example from the day:
Keep on the track, look to the left, You’ll find a prize in rather a small cleft. At a footpath sign go slightly west, Twelve feet away might be the best.
Of course if you aren't rhythmically robust, you can always open your panic envelope for the co-ords.

11 May 2011 | RR003X | GL5JZ74K | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | It was a long while ago when I cracked this one, but I remember it well. It was quite hard!

... | TMT04 | GL5JZ742 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | We gave up on our competition here! I was the finder though. The tape has come off from the magnet so it's now a bit loose. Slid it down a bit so it's ok but will need re-wrapping. Unfortunately tape isn't one of the things we carry in our caching bag... I do believe there is a kitchen sink in there somewhere though! TFTC! |

... | TMT06 | GL5K36H9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | deebooted & ATM | Which end? Ah, yes, here it is. Nice container. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5K9JTT | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Could have done with a periscope here to navigate through the sea of cow parsley. The current dry conditions are obviously perfect for what we call a weed, but is actually a very pretty plant, and only a weed when it throttles your carefully cultivated perennials in your garden..... Sorry, I gigress. NQF. SL. (Log now almost full) TFTC. |

... | TMT07 | GL5K9KM9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | I think it's about time I added a machete to our geocaching kit - It was like a jungle along the path to GZ! Have to say though, we were all really enjoying the walk - in addition to the cow parsley there were multitudes of delicate dog roses and hawthoyn blossom looking magnificent in the sunshine. Actually encountered muggle traffic but they were way in the distance by the time we reached GZ. It was ATM's turn to get on his knees here! SL. TFTC. |

... | TMT08 | GL5JZ7CY | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Ah! Scary horses! We were pleased they weren't cows though! They slowly wandered over to us to have a look. I grabbed hold of Andy tightly. They then circled around and walked away. They seem friendly enough! Got to the obvious cache location, but the cache wasn't in it! Looked around the area and nothing. Thought id investigate the bag next door and the cache was in it! Put it back in it's home with a rock on top. TFTC! |
... | TMT08 | GL5K37JW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | deebooted & ATM | Beautiful horses on the way to this one and so friendly. Found this one not in it's obvious recepticle, but lying nearby, in an odd looking carrier bag. Maybe a tad big for it's contents too! Log duly signed, with wrong date, and on our way after tucking it in where we thought it should have been! TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5K9MMW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | It's very strange that we (with deebooted and ATM)found the cache in the same mode as Cassandy who were doing this series just in front of us. Can't imagine that the horses in the nearby field could have removed the camouflage and extracted the bag containing the cache. . A mystery indeed. Perhaps a webcam shouild be installed here? SL.

... | TMT09 | GL5K9NHZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | ATM, being at the highest altitude, spotted this one, glinting in the late afternoon sunshine, a mile off. AS reported below, the log was full but we aigned the addendum. TFTC. |

... | TMT12 | GL5K38Y7 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | deebooted & ATM | Last easy find. Enjoyable series, thank you. Footpaths a bit confusing on some sections but no more overgrown than elsewhere at this time of the year. TFTC and the series. |
... | TMT12 | GL5K9QWZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A great, straightforward series for both families and wrinklies alike! Nothing mind-blowing or physically strenuous, some lovely paths (some more obvious than others), pleasant scenery and a variety of caches. No probs finding this one, then back to the car for the short journey to Maldon for the Essex meet. SL. Thanks Schoolfrenz - we enjoyed our afternoon's caching very much. Will be back to do the nearby Puzzle caches on another day. |

Knowing he runs around here checking his caches I wondered if it was schoolfrenz, sure enough it was! After a quick chat we carried on with our wherigo. Only put in a wrong number once, but rectified by stepping 50ft out of the zone then back. A fun little wherigo! TFTC!
EDIT: Forgot to say we used an iPhone to find it. All went smoothly!

13 May 2011 | CN | GL5K8G28 | Crow's Nest | Found it | kevanjue | Had to do a job at Manor Farm this morning for work, so i thought I'd pick up this 'little' (not) drive-by! . What a great idea for a cache, may do something like this myself! Thought I'd knock at your door Ray for some legendary Bacon baps! but seeing that it was only 6.30am thought better of it! lol Thanks for the cache. SL. |

14 May 2011 | RR003X | GL5KFKCF | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | cazmockett | #1234 found @ 18:45 Penultimate Schoolfrenz cache of the day, had a little trouble finding somewhere to park, but a quick find once I was at GZ. |
... | RR010 | GL5KFE12 | RR010 - 01derful | Found it | cazmockett | #1232 found @ 17:45 After my DNF a few days ago, I rechecked my workings of the puzzle. Eventually saw the error of my ways and geo-checker confirmed I'd got it right. So today was the time to go and find it. Quick grab and onto 10A, TFTC. |
... | RR011X | GL5KW4M1 | RR011 - HomeBase | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here |
... | RR012 | GL5KFMZQ | RR012 - OScillation | Found it | cazmockett | #1235 found @ 19:15 Last Schoolfrenz cache of the day. Had a bit of difficulty parking as recommended spot was indeed occupied by travellers. Found a suitable place and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC. |
... | RR017 | GL5KF4WG | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | cazmockett | #1226 found @ 14:10 After my DNF at Spickets Wood, I decided to walk a circular path to pick up a few more in the area. Nearly DNF'd this one too, as GPS was trying to convince me to look a few feet too far north, but I widened my search and the prize was soon in hand. TFTC. |
... | RR018 | GL5KF676 | RR018 - Sheepcoates | Found it | cazmockett | #1227 found 14/05/11 @ 14:35 A quick find, after walking from Stan's. TFTC. |
... | RR019X | GL5KBRKC | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Right co-ords, right clue, right spot, no cache |
... | RR019X | GL5KF8F1 | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Found it | cazmockett | #1229 found @ 15:15 After my initial DNF earlier, I had a short text conversation with Schoolfrenz who convinced me to go and have another look. So I retraced my steps having done one big loop already, and sure enough, the little devil was hiding... I can only explain my previous failure because the GPS was telling me it was 30ft further east. Argh! |
... | RR020 | GL5KF796 | RR020 - Sains Approach | Found it | cazmockett | #1228 found @ 14:50 Quick find once the GPS had settled down around GZ. Bit surprised to just see a plastic bag rather than a container, but all seemed dry enough. |
... | RR021X | GL5KF0EH | Rallye Runde 21 aka Goat Lodge | Found it | cazmockett | #1225 found @ 12:50 Out for the day mopping up more Schoolfrenz caches. First of the day's puzzles. Quick find, TFTC. |
... | RR024 | GL5M1W9F | RR024 - Two Duck Raid | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK here. |
... | RR028X | GL5KFA1X | RR028 - Owl | Found it | cazmockett | #1230 found @ 16:15 I was going round in circles with this puzzle, but having had a chat with a previous finder at the recent Essex Meet, I saw the error of my ways and sure enough, the numbers fell out. Quick find this afternoon, on a Schoolfrenz caching mission. I hadn't decoded the hint, but it didn't matter, as clues were spot on and it was fairly obvious once at GZ. |
... | RR044 | GL5KFBJE | RR044 - Ms Kitty | Found it | cazmockett | #1231 found @ 16:45 The puzzle was satisfyingly straightforward, and I was in the area finding other Schoolfrenz caches, so this was a quick find. Left Alfie the Little Grey Donkey for the next finder. |
... | RR047 | GL5KFF9K | RR047 - Lake View | Found it | cazmockett | #1233 found @ 17:55 Glad I was able to read some previous logs whilst in the field, initially I was having no luck at GZ, but walking round the other side it was soon obvious. TFTC! |
... | RR049 | GL5KFPF7 | RR049 - Duck Corner | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Started solving the puzzle but wasn't getting anywhere. then a conversation at the recent Essex meet persuaded me I was on the right track, so I had another go. Aha, then all was revealed. Thought I would be able to pick this up today whilst mopping up other Schoolfrenz caches in the area... but, once at GZ, I hunted around for the appropriate place but could not find it. Argh! Back to the drawing board? |
... | TMT01 | GL5KC8HM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | landda | Still recovering from the John Ray Way last Sunday, so decided a couple of nice gentle routes this weekend and this one definitely fitted the bill thank you. A Nice easy one to start.

... | CN | GL5KN03F | Crow's Nest | Write note | olivesmith | Popped in to pick up Tb's to go to Wales tomorrow or anywhere on the way olivesmith |
... | E401 | GL5M5RJR | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | Pipsta | Muggle central - after opening my bag nd searching for...um...urgh...something? We eventually could quickly nip to a crouch and collect this one. |
... | E401 | GL5M63F3 | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | Shirst | Thinking this would be a nice quiet one, but after hardly any parking spaces perhaps I was a tad optimistic! There was a gentleman hanging around in shorts and for a breif moment I did wonder if it was Schoolfrenz who would be jogging past laughing at us, but no just a few dog walking muggles and a random man carrying something odd. Made finding the cache trickier than it should have been, but got there in the end. TFTC |
... | E403 | GL5M5TEA | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Found it | Pipsta | A very late start today - meant to be an early start but eventualy after much fafing on my part got set off at 1:00, we'll hve time to the whole route wont we? Quick find! |
... | E403 | GL5MA398 | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Found it | Shirst | Perfect caching weather (if a bit chilly) although I can't find my notes and I'm writing this up later than normal so I'm sorry that I can't write any more. I'll add to it if I find my notes :) TFTC |
... | E407 | GL5MA4VX | Essex 100 - 4/07 - Conservation | Found it | Shirst | This is a nice easy one - provided you don't walk past it! Serves us right for chatting and not focusing! At least we remembered to keep picking up the log codes! TFTC |
... | E408 | GL5MA5GB | Essex 100 - 4/08 - Stilish | Found it | Shirst | Not item in clue and too much chatting saw us back tracking again. No need to fear us at the event coming up at this rate! I'm sure I'm normally more on the ball than this. Still really enjoying the chats & chocolate breaks :) TFTC |
... | E409 | GL5MA6C3 | Essex 100 - 4/09 - Fenced | Found it | Shirst | Was wondering if we'd see any more guanoflage round this loop and here it was! Perfect as there was no backtracking for this one so we were on our way (and so far no more ticks). TFTC |
... | E411 | GL5Q4EER | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Found it | Shirst | Not to keen on these sorts of logs, but just recently don’t seem to have time to catch up and as I am getting further behind this will have to do. Pipsta and I did this loop as practice for the Goldhanger event, however as it took as near enough 8 hours don’t think we will be posing any competition. Perhaps if we stop less, chat less (so we don’t keep going past the GZ), eat less (perhaps not that one!!) we might get back in day light? Was a close call this time, but so much fun. TFTC and the series. |

... | TMT01 | GL5KTZYX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | gspleo | Easy find to start of series. TFTC |

... | TMT05 | GL5KV5E7 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | gspleo | Quick find as part of the series. Logbook is full TFTC
Note: the footpath between 5 & 6 has been planted over but as far as I am aware is still the legal right of way. We did however walk round the edge of the field. Because we did the tour in reverse there is no footpath sign from 6 to 5. Had exactly the same problem when previously completing this cache as 'Bell 1' We missed the footpath marker completely that time and ended up making a large detour. |
... | TMT06 | GL5KV3FH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | gspleo | Quick find as part of the series. Logbook is full. TFTC |

... | TMT11 | GL5KV1W8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | gspleo | Using my new Oregan for the first time and misread the caches. When you down load each cache individually the last digit is not shown on the screen. I therefore appeared to have 4 caches numbered 1!! Therefore thought (incorrectly) we had started at no 12 instead of 1. Decided to complete Tour in reverse order. After all that TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL5KV752 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | gspleo | Missed this completely at start of tour. Still getting used to new gps. Pleasant series although I did have a sense of deja vue having completed the majority of these caches in their previous incarnations. Thanks for the series. |

The pong from near by farm is still lingering so will wit a little longer till lunch break. |
... | X-OHM06X | GL5MA43R | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 1 | Found it | Shirst | After passing on earlier spots for lunch because of an odd smell thought here would be a good place but then I saw what looked like a tick on my trousers so didn't fancy sitting down here. We got the numbers & it was then I realised that we hadn't picked up the numbers from the previous caches - doh. Luckily we didn't need them and even better I had guessed where this cache was without the numbers (although the clue was mis-numbered). We carried on caching (with quick checks to ensure no more ticks) and we were off to the next one and lunch. TFTC |

... | X-WHER | GL5KTBK1 | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | gspleo | First attempt at a Wherigo and first outing for my new Oregon. A couple of false starts with incorrect data entry, still not sure how far out of the zone you should go before being able to enter the answer again. On the whole an interesting experience and looking forward to seeing more of this type of cache published. Thenks for great cache that must have taken a fair bit of time to set up. |
16 May 2011 | RR011X | GL5KW5KP | RR011 - HomeBase | Write note | Mr Crow | Following Olive's log I had to probe further and this is what she said:
On my way up to Crow's Nest to collect TB's - I saw a tree with a hole near the base and thought that it would be a good place to put a cache. On the way back I stopped as I was curious to see if anyone else (not just anyone but a local prolific setter) had also seen the possibility!! Then I saw another hole about my waist height (remember I am short) and lo and behold there it was!! I couldn't have solved the puzzle.
LOL

... | TMT05 | GL5KZAHM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Clean log installed. The farmer continues to ignore the council about marking the footpath across the field to this cache. You are supposed to choose a route across that minimises disruption to the crop. Bah! |

18 May 2011 | E401 | GL5M8EWH | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | clanmckay | First one of a blustery walk along the sea wall. SL. TFTC |

... | RR029 | GL5M9PFQ | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | HollynCharlie | Jen is making a return to solving puzzles after 4 months of Morning, Afternoon and evening sickness (ok all day sickness)yesterday she finally was able to sit in front of a computer screen so straight on the puzzles. (lets hope this lasts and the baby doesnt give me anymore gip for the next five months as there is geocaching to be done) This puzzle has been annoying me for a while and yesterday I made a break through. After some working out I came up with some good looking co-ords. I checked google earth and the spot looked good. (I seem to have forgotten there is such a thing as Geo-checker - baby brain again - my excuse for everything and Im sticking to it - heehee) Then tonight we headed out into the rain and typically... we arrive near GZ and there is a running club with about 100 members each running past at intervals so we had to pretend we were waiting for them all to pass (which felt like a lifetime) eventually we could dive in and search for the cache and in no time at all the cache was within our grasp...another satisfying find. TFTC and another great puzzle... I am now working on some more RR's. We will get there one day. |

... | X-GW | GL5MAERD | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Silver Horde | Looking forward to the event! Can I submit that we are fairly aged and have only found about 215 of our caches in the UK? I don't think we will be doing the whole 8 miles as 4 miles is just about my limit although Mr SH Could probably manage further! See you all soon! |

... | X-GW | GL5ME78G | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Mr Crow | I was asked this question earlier: Quick question about Sat. Weather is meant to be nice, so is the route suitable to walk in shorts or is there the chance of getting stung/brambled to death?
Here's what I said: Well, if you walked the route like I did today (in a track suit) you might get brushed by a bit of cow parsley in two places. If you want to find caches, there are two places where, in shorts, you will get stung. Your call. |
... | X-GW | GL5ME8V9 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | vanguard3 | Shorts for me then. I'm expecting the 45 prior cachers to leave a well trodden trail for me: If not, gspleo--in you go!! |

... | X-GW | GL5MF0XP | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | HelennTribe | We were reading the notes for the Final Instructions when we came across an item that made us shiver when we recalled a recent occurance. We had been travelling back from a Meet and decided to try and find a couple of extra caches. The night was very dark so we donned our head torches as we headed off into the country to start our search. Eerie sounds permeated the warm night air which was full of a heavy scent. We were enjoying our walk but then we turned a corner and nearly jumped out of our skin. Standing in our path was a peculiar looking character. Given the time of night and the location we were not of a mind to hang around to see whether this was a friend or a foe. Time enough to take a quick photo before we turned tail and headed home. When we subsequently looked at the picture we wondered if it had any connection to the Scarecrows Revenge! |

... | X-GW | GL5MG4M9 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | frenchboy | Wishing you good luck on your Trail Launch and sorry we can't be there. BTW I wouldn't upset the Scarecrow. The last time I did that my Bentley's bonnet finished up at the bottom of the hill near Hadleigh Castle |
... | X-GW | GL5MG6HZ | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | gspleo | I think we are going to have a great day. Really looking forward to meeting everyone again and having some "quality" caching time.
See you tommorrow |
... | X-GW | GL5MG8XT | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Kitty!! | Oh what a shame the Scarecrow can't make it. To make him feel welcome amongst decent folks and A1 premier cachers I had purchased a special prize just for him - "fewest finds" category! As no-one else needs such encouragement, and I so love luxury Belgium chocolates, I've started eating them myself! Yum - delicious!
Kitty
PS I hope you all like charred cakes - set the timer for the cakes for 30 mins but forgot to press "start". 45 minutes later I had to open the windows to let all the smoke out and revive Bonzo (Kitty's Cat!)

Having reads the logs I shall be wearing a long sleeved shirt and a track suit bottom tomorrow rather than my normal caching attire of an office suit.
I can wait for the off tomorrow. Please keep those little hints coming in the logs |

I'm bringing my nice big car which has plenty of room for those bribery items I shall be receiving re: scarecrows revenge! See you all tomorrow, bright and early! |

He wants to monkey around and be photographed on his travels. He also hopes to meet a real monkey sometime. Since we have no plans to visit Colchester Zoo in the near future, perhaps another cacher can help him on his way. |

... | X-GW | GL5MHP2M | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | HelennTribe | 3 x TB Drop.
We have tickets to Colochester Zoo which we have to use in the next month so little ones might like to swap for the monkey TB. BTW little ones are getting very excited about seeing you all tommorow. |

... | X-GW | GL5MJ99P | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | vanguard3 | A GC & TB drop. Gloria, my friendly hippo, would love to go to the zoo too. |
... | X-GW | GL5MJM63 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Kitty!! | Event Eve Cache update!
Mr Crow set the caches last night so my mission this afternoon was to check they were still in place (due to scarecrow sightings!) and that the rhymes will actually take you to the caches etc etc! I've walked the route several times, know the cache locations and what the containers are so didn't "hang around". It took just under 3 hours.
In the last couple of weeks hides that were exposed are now under foliage - and in a couple of places this means nettles! I promise you they weren't there when we selected the hides! Greenery has also started to cover a couple of footpath signs so keep your eyes open.
The poems, all Mr Crow's handywork (obviously!) all work though some are more straightforward than others!
The panic envelopes are all done - I abstained from drinking wine whilst doing these for you so they will, hopefully, have the right clue in the right envelope! I have, however, pointed out to Mr Crow that they can be opened and resealed without tearing so have given him the job of stapling 800 odd flaps so that no cheating can take place!
Nettles are rampant at No 4. However, the first cacher to find it should bear the brunt and the rest of you find without any pain! LOL!
You needn't get stung at No 6 - but I bet you do! Keep your eye on the footpath for No 6.
There are lots of ducklings and goslings about on the nature reserve - and you will also come across some ponies. Should be some photo opportunities here.
No 17 - blame Ray! I knew what it was and where it should be, but Oh My! I believe this is Ray's Revenge for the Scarecrow and Ashley Green 13. He had a wicked glint in his eyes and a great big beaky smile when I exclaimed "that's so mean!"
After that it should be straight forward. Few nettles at 22 (and midges) but again the first to get to it should sort the nettles out for you.
Really looking forward to seeing you all in the morning.
Kitty
Don't forget to bring some anti-midge cream and water. |
... | X-GW | GL5MJW4V | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | mel-ray | Thanks Kitty for the support. Had glue packed in for the envelopes. Stapler is now also packed and loaded with the garmin.
Just a reminder to take extra water and sunblock. Like last year the sun can get harsh in the open. |
... | X-GW | GL5MM1KX | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | gillywig | Just home from work .... very tired .... and slightly tipsy! Be gentle in the morning! |
... | X-GW | GL5MMCXE | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | cbailey8 | Dropping off a couple of trackables - looking forward to the event. |
... | X-GW | GL5MMFGK | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Kitty!! | Just realised why Chocolate Fridge Cake is called Fridge Cake! LOL! Suggest mini cachers don't have any (unless Helen's skills extend to extracting chocolate stains from Kid's clothes!) Kitty |
21 May 2011 | CL01 | GL5MN7PT | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Publish Listing | Lindinis | Published |
... | CL01 | GL5MPP5V | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | HappyCabbage | Number 1, found second, now to number 2 to find third after finding number 3 first. Clear? TFTC! |
... | CL01 | GL5MPQAH | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Unobtainium | A great GZ to sign the log without worrying about being muggled. TFTC Andy K! |
... | CL01 | GL5MQ1AJ | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | landda | I am ashamed I never knew this lovely nature reserve existed. Quite a bit of bunching on the way round the posts so we detoured after number 5 and backtracked from 12. First to sign the log, but doubt we would be FTF's on the timings. |
... | CL01 | GL5MQTTJ | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | HollynCharlie | It was almost novel to be following a gps again doing these rather than a map and bit of paper. Nice quick find here and off to the last one before rejoining the route. TFTC! |
... | CL01 | GL5MR45D | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1881 Joined another queue here to sign log. Saw lots of birdlife, butterflies and dragonflies in the nature reserve, and also some bizarre sightings of two rare species "homo fishermanus supinus", and "geocachernutus illogicus" who were ferreting around at the bases of trees. |
... | CL01 | GL5MRGYD | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | We classically walked past the first post "I think its on posts like these" says me, "No, the posts will have plaques on top of them" says Andy, "Well... If your wrong then you're going back" says me. And back he went after we found number 2, tail between legs. I bumped into him at number 6 with Mel-ray who we stuck with from this point onwards. When we went to retrieve this one silverhorde was here too. A quick chat and then on to the rest. TFTC! |
... | CL01 | GL5MRJPP | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | cbailey8 | We had now managed to catch-up with gspleo, a1nnie and vanguard3 and soon the cache was in our hands. Took a Schoolfrenz and Kitty Cachers pathtag (not sure what to do with them but I will work it out). Thanks for the cache. Now it is time to head back to the Goldhanger West series of caches. |
... | CL01 | GL5MRTQP | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | a1nnie | It was quite fun to collect the numbers, a big thanks to all, wilcox particularly, for the great team effort it took to find this one and the other two. There were cachers dashing back and forth, collecting numbers, working out co-ords. Great fun. |
... | CL01 | GL5MT3ZA | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | antntracey | Actually found this one after 2 and 3. Having retrieved all the reference numbers required. Still in company with ianbp and dixielily1, lots of other cachers about in the reserve now. TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5MTM50 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | HelennTribe | FTF Ah nice to be in the shade, definatley a degree or two cooler in here. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe This entry was edited by helennbrian on Sunday, 22 May 2011 at 06:27:38 UTC. |
... | CL01 | GL5MV8TN | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event.The time wandering around in the shade was a welcome break from the sun. SL, TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5MWM2A | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire.

... | CL01 | GL5MWNGM | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. It was when collecting clues near here that we were passed by helennbrian. We took a few minutes to exchange recollections, etc before continuing and getting lost in the woods. |
... | CL01 | GL5MWT0E | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig, Mcwomble and Simon(Hollyncharlie).WE devised a cunning plan here and split up in order to assemble the numbers more quickly, this actually appeared to work! and we even managed to find each other in the woods afterwards! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | CL01 | GL5MX52V | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Wilcox | Teamed up with Annie, Gspleo and Vanguard here as we signed the log. TNLN TFTC - Enjoyed the detour from the main series. |
... | CL01 | GL5MXAEA | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | gspleo | Great time wandering around the lakes looking for posts randomly meeting other cachers on the way. Somewhere else I'd not been before. Great location and willl definately return in the future. TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5MXM52 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | GrooveFactor5 | TFTC,
Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | CL01 | GL5MZCZG | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | happileigh | Cacheing with Mr H on a perfect May Day. Great area, but the number of lakes made following paths and GPS incredibly complicated.(I found) Another great hide. TFTC! |
... | CL01 | GL5N0NK8 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Nice walk through the nature reserve. Now with Ian.pb and antntracey, Ian.pb dog Toby did enjoy the swim while we were looking for the posts. Cache easy to find once we realised what we were doing. Unfortunately we were not as efficient as others at plotting the numbers. |
... | CL01 | GL5N0PJW | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | vanguard3 | Another nice cache. No way of guessing your way to these locations. TFTC. #2126. |
... | CL01 | GL5N88FA | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Loony Londo | Found with Tyke TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5N8ZP2 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | stephia4 | Entered the lakes alone but eventually caught up with a bunch of other happy cachers after the first few posts, so decided at post 5 we would go round backwards instead ;o) First to sign the log on this one (but not the fastest to get there from the start!) Brilliant area on a lovely sunny sunny morning :o) TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5N9ZBB | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | CL01 | GL5NCKNP | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | gillywig | All three Reserve caches found and relived that the sheer volume of cachers about meant no need to plot and pace. (I'm sure Kev had a seek peek at his gps... unnecessarily as it happened.) SL TFTC. |
... | CL01 | GL5NJY7P | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Found in the company of a great group of cachers while on the Goldhanger West Loop Launch Day (read our log on GC2N0TD for the full story!) A lovely place for a quiet walk - a bit difficult for that today! Nice easy find. SL. TFTC. |
... | CL01 | GL5NJYX9 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | mcwomble | #2329 Time to break out the water ration whilst waiting for the queue to sign. Lovely views of the lake between 2 & 1. TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5PCTNQ | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | cookie cook | Glad we included this in the walk as it was a great place. Thanks for going the extra mile with the multi's, and... TFTC |
... | CL01 | GL5Q4QJX | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | CL01 | GL5R7XGG | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Silver Horde | We had some adventures in here, thank goodness for the map!! We met a rather cross birdwatcher with a huge telephoto lens near here. We told him that we were nearly the last of the groups coming through the lakes and he calmed down when Mr SH talked bird sightings with him! |
... | CL01 | GL9AZA8E | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 1 | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

... | CL02 | GL5MPQ49 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Unobtainium | Found quite quickly after retracing some of my steps in getting the clues. TFTC Andy K! |
... | CL02 | GL5MQ1MN | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | landda | A quick walk from number 1 but by the time we got here we were 6th on the log for this one. |
... | CL02 | GL5MQT8T | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | HollynCharlie | And so we set forth into the maze that is Chigborough lakes. Quickly gathered the numbers needed and plotted all 3 multis in to the gps. Found this one easily and headed off for the next one! TFTC |
... | CL02 | GL5MR4YC | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1882 Last of the multis for us and quickly onwards, or so we thought! |
... | CL02 | GL5MRG5D | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | cbailey8 | We had a spot of luck here as while walking around the nature reserve we spotted the cache container. Hence we took an executive decision and decided to sign the log and note the number. We then carried on around the nature reserve to find the remainder of the posts to solve the other two multi-caches. Meanwhile Toby had found a swamp and transformed himself from a Yellow Labrador into a stinky mud monster. This was quite helpful as other cachers gave us a wide berth as we passed them on the footpath. Thanks for the cache. |
... | CL02 | GL5MRGYK | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Erm... Well... Might have slightly seen some cachers emerging from here whilst we were half way through collecting the numbers. Either they'd just been for a mass toilet break or there was something worth looking for. Suspicious entities, these cacher folk. We dived in and had a quick poke around and out jumped the cache. TFTC! |
... | CL02 | GL5MRVQV | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | a1nnie | I did spot some cachers at this one as I went past, still collecting numbers. But carried on trying to collect all the numbers before heading off to find the three caches in the reserve. Obviously, it was a quick find, once I had the numbers. It had been quite fun to collect the numbers, a big thanks to all, wilcox particularly, for the great team effort it took to find this one and the other two. There were cachers dashing back and forth, collecting numbers, working out co-ords. Great fun. |
... | CL02 | GL5MT4ZN | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | antntracey | Simple find having obtained the co-ordinates from the posts. Photo time with dixielily1 doing the honours, again found with ianbp and dixielily1. The first teams to sign this one so we must be doing ok at the moment!!! TFTC |
... | CL02 | GL5MTMFN | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | HelennTribe | FTF Had to join a Q to sign here. Little one very pleased to find a bear in the cache and Jill kindly left some hairclips as trade for her.

... | CL02 | GL5MV9MC | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. I'm not a big fan of multi-caches, but kept the faith and worked through them. SL, TFTC |
... | CL02 | GL5MWM4Q | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | CL02 | GL5MWNYA | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. We had got very confused by the clues so we were glad to meet another team here to confirm we were catching n. |

... | CL02 | GL5MZC9J | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | happileigh | Cacheing with Mr H on a perfect May Day. Found all the posts, then Mr H patiently waited while I did the sums (should've got him to do them as we found to our cost at later caches).Nice hide. TFTC! |
... | CL02 | GL5N0P1Y | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | vanguard3 | The first of the Lakes multi's & looking at the map now it looks like we went round in circles after this. Nice cache & a FAV for all this little series. TFTC. #2125. |
... | CL02 | GL5N0QHM | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | By now we are working well as a group. Unfortunately those following on the footpath saw our group photo being taken and were quickly able to put 2 and 2 together and quickly make the find. |
... | CL02 | GL5N8ZWH | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | stephia4 | Having located CLNR-1 and leaving Helennbrian there to sign away we rushed off for the next one! Arrived to find another group just replacing the cache. Cookie grabbed it, signed it and off we went! (P.S. What is the relevance of the L codes on these 3 I was wondering?) |
... | CL02 | GL5N9ZDH | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | CL02 | GL5NCJQK | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | gillywig | Had caught James up and met up again with Simon. Arrived at the scene of much merriment as pipstar(we think) was attempting a return. SL and off again as a quintet. TFTC |
... | CL02 | GL5NJYR4 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | mcwomble | #2328 Teamwork for this one, having left the melee of signing the log at 6. Simon went anticlockwise from post 5, I went clockwise and we met up and shared results. Coords calculated and on towards #2 only to find the queue for signing. TFTC |
... | CL02 | GL5NJYY0 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Another find in this delightful reserve on the day of the Goldhanger West Loop Launch (read our log on GC2N0TD for the full story!) Shouldn't think that this reserve has ever seen so many visitors on a single day before! Enjoyed the hunt. SL. TFTC. |

... | CL02 | GL5R7Z0A | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 2 | Found it | Silver Horde | We couldn't believe our ears at first on hearing a cuckoo and then we were astounded when the cuckoo actually flew over our heads while cuckooing!! Amazing! And then when we thought things couldn't get more amazing I saw a Kingfisher!! WOW!! We also saw herons, egrets, grebe, ducks, swans and many woodland birds. Fantastic! We also bumped into a couple of groups of cachers here and there while trying to find our way out!! What an adventure!! One of the best parts of geocaching!! |

... | CL03 | GL5MQVA2 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | HollynCharlie | We arrived at this one to find a cacher half wedged in the tree containing the cache. Obviously once we'd stopped laughing we did help her out! TFTC!! |
... | CL03 | GL5MR218 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | Stones2005 | 1880 We zoomed round collecting the numbers and thought we had done it wrong as some were repeated, but no problems in the end as they translated into correct coords. Joined the queue to sign log here. |
... | CL03 | GL5MRGYQ | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Andy dived in to grab this one. We then took the wrong path back to the road, but luckily bumped into schoolfrenz who helped turn us around!!! TFTC! |
... | CL03 | GL5MRHT0 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | cbailey8 | Once we had all of the post numbers sorted out we worked out the coordinates and loaded them into the GPS. Made a change to go back to traditional caching and soon the cache was safely in our hands. Thanks for the cache. |
... | CL03 | GL5MRWF5 | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | a1nnie | It was quite fun to collect the numbers, a big thanks to all, wilcox particularly, for the great team effort it took to find this one and the other two. There were cachers dashing back and forth, collecting numbers, working out co-ords. Great fun. In a dash to get to the cache, we missed the footpath that would have taken us directly to this one, so I ended up on the ground trying to get under a fence - and then couldn't get back up again. DOH. Cache found and signed at last. Now to find our way back to the trail. Hmmmmm. |
... | CL03 | GL5MT5GH | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | antntracey | Log quickly signed and then off to the next one!! TFTC |

It was nice to bump into the leaders who had caught us up by now- it was the last time today we were to see any other cachers.......:( Did our best not to disturb the wildlife for a photographer, but were thwarted by a pitbull puppy(named Stud) who promptly jumped into lakes and chased all the birds away!TFTC! |

... | CL03 | GL5NJZBR | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | No problem finding this cache as large group of cachers in the vivinity of GZ.

... | E101 | GL5MQHJ3 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | PeCeH | First find of the trail. A orderly queue forming but no one waiting for the bus.... TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5MQK6X | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Stones2005 | 1874 Nice easy one to start with, especially as there was already someone there with cache in hand. |
... | E101 | GL5MQKKR | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | HollynCharlie | And so on this glorious day I set off for some solo caching as Jen wouldn't have been able to manage the whole series. Nice quick walk to this one and an equally quick find. Got the number I needed and off I set. TFTC! |
... | E101 | GL5MR7P0 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | cbailey8 | Worked out the cache location as we walked along the road. Quickly retrieved the cache that had just been put back my another cacher and signed the log. Wilcox insisted that we replaced the cache so he could find it and then we set off for the next cache with a1nnie in the distance. |
... | E101 | GL5MRGWW | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | We set off at 10:32 after I nearly got hit by a car at the starting line, although that wouldn't have stopped us! Vanguard3 and gspleo were just in front of us and we saw them emerge from GZ which made for quite an easy find here! We really enjoyed the whole trail and chuckled at our poetic hint sheet. Were now waiting for Schoolfrenz's next book on Cache poetry for more great verses, including my personal favourite "Down the steps to a rusty pole, find the cache my little foal" TFTC! |
... | E101 | GL5MRJE8 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | a1nnie | Set off on the trail during the trail launch day a few minutes after my actual "start" time as was still fiddling with the bike (my thanks to the guys who lent a hand there). An easy find, actually even managed to reach it without getting off my bike. But then couldn't get the log out, so had to get off and unpack the tweezers! Log signed and handed over to the cachers behind me who had caught up. Then I got lost. OMG How am I going to cope without co-ordinates if I get lost at the second cache!! Followed some cachers disappearing through the hedge and I was back on track. |
... | E101 | GL5MRPP5 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | chequerdog | Out of the trap at 09:56 and we were soon joining other cachers at the first hide. TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5MRY9Y | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | antntracey | First team to set off at 09.44. Easy find to get us started, closely followed by ianbp. TFTC. |
... | E101 | GL5MT0W6 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | HelennTribe | FTF Second to last to start the trail and so lots of leg work was gonna be needed to catch up those ahead. Kids set off at a run which got Cass and Andy soon in sight for a quick find here. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe This entry was edited by helennbrian on Sunday, 22 May 2011 at 06:21:40 UTC. |
... | E101 | GL5MV74Z | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Alanswright | First of the day. Hope they are all this straight forward, but, somehow, I doubt it. SL, TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5MVBWW | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | cazmockett | #1271 found with Alibags My last cache of the day, having done the circuit backwards. A quick find. We then went on to grab the church micro for Ali (I'd found it a couple of years ago) and have a drink in the pub. Met up with a few stragglers there, well after everyone else had gone. Thanks for the series, we enjoyed the walk, even though we weren't doing the competition. Pity about our two DNFs. No. 6 will be easy enough to attempt again, but why does #17 have to be just about the furthest cache from civilisation! Argh!!! The wildlife was out in force today too. We saw/heard: skylarks, cuckoos, a kestrel and a rare butterfly, to name a few. And the weather was kind to us too. Probably spent a little too long re-hydrating in the pub near #10, but never mind, it was a welcome rest. |
... | E101 | GL5MWHPB | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | tyke | 10:16 start with Loony Londo. Caught sight of previous team replacing it. TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5MWKCN | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E101 | GL5MWPXD | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig, Mcwomble and Simon(Hollyncharlie). The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |

... | E101 | GL5N09PG | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Off to a dodgey start and Schoolfrenz quickly came to the rescue, mistook 50 yds for 500 yds. |
... | E101 | GL5N0DF7 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | vanguard3 | Logging my finds on the day after. Much windier-how different that may have been out in the country. I havn't put a FAV on the Event itself as that will close, so it's allocated here. We ran for 5 strides towards this one; & five at the end of the series too!!. Opps, just remembered to change the log date. (Used to the Garmin doing that for me). TFTC. #2119. |
... | E101 | GL5N87P5 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Loony Londo | The start of the rally!

... | E101 | GL5N8YJF | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | stephia4 | First Speedy Find of the day with landda and cookie cook. :o) TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5N9YNG | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E101 | GL5NAET9 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | No GPS, just rhymes for the day, Compiled by cachers, Anne and Ray. What a cracking series this turned out to be So I just had to write our logs in poetry!
Score card in hand and with instruction sheet Off we wandered along the street. Where cache One was we now knew, Signed the log and off to Two. |
... | E101 | GL5NC9Q2 | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | gillywig | Off we go. Kev doesn't seem to be missing his gps yet. Arrived as mcwomble was replacing. SL TFTC. |
... | E101 | GL5NH0EV | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E101 | GL5NJXAV | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | mcwomble | #2322 5..4..3..2..1..Go
And so it begins. Confidently strolling off down the road. In the distance I could spot a group seemingly having trouble putting the log back in the cache. Perhaps 2 mins wasn't quite enough time between starters? I had the same trouble too, as Kevanjue & Gillywig were rapidly approaching. TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5PCNDT | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5Q4N0D | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E101 | GL5R4T7D | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Silver Horde | Such a great event. We had petitioned for an earlier start from our original last but one spot due to our inexperience at caching in the UK but even when we heard our name called to go right at the beginning we felt no urgency and took our time finishing our tea and saying our farewells. Even had to go back to the car to gather last minute equipment. There was still a group of cachers at the first wp so we only needed to know where to replace it! Then we handed it to the next cacher behind and gave him the info. Then we made a mistake and did not realise we needed details of our next destination! |
... | E101 | GL9AZACF | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches! Please email via my user profile for a full explanation if there are any questions or queries, particularly if you are considering deleting this log! |

... | E102 | GL5MPPW4 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | windywetmud | Well...we were about 15th off the grid but by now we had already past 6 others.I did tell myself not to be too competitive but hey.. |
... | E102 | GL5MPXA3 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | Tangled-T | Off to a flying start now, quickly queuedand the ran off accross the field for the next cache, only to realise Mr Norberg still had the lid of the cache. This earned him a run back to return the lid. TFTC. |
... | E102 | GL5MPYM4 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | landda | Joined by Stones2005 at this one and all signed the log. |

... | E102 | GL5MR9MQ | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | cbailey8 | Managed to close the gap on a1nnie and quickly retrieved the cache. It was getting quite congested with other cachers which made things more interesting. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E102 | GL5MRGX3 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | There was no time to lose so I crawled down onto the bridge for a good look. Spotted instantly. Whilst signing I discovered a Kitty path tag which I guess no-one had noticed in there so I pocketed it for our rapidly growing collection! TFTC! |
... | E102 | GL5MRKDF | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | a1nnie | To be perfectly honest I would never have found this one with the clue (how far is a furlong? my GPS didn't agree with what I had googled!) Fortunately other cachers ahead were still signing the log, so I was able to add my name to the quickly growing list and handed over to those fast behind me. The field from here to number three was very very bumpy on the bike. OUCH. |
... | E102 | GL5MRQHE | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | chequerdog | n our stride now and taking it in turns to recover the caches, surely the whole series can't be this easy? TFTC |
... | E102 | GL5MRZDZ | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | antntracey | Found in company with ianbp having teamed up for the day. Nearly went wrong on this one after reading the wrong clue initially. Enjoying the walk on a sunny morning. TFTC |

Had the cache signed but then I dropped it so the sight as Gilly, Graeme, Kev and now Simon (HollynCharlie) was of a McWomble prone on the bridge trying to fish the cache out of the ditch.

I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E103 | GL5NJXVD | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | mcwomble | #2333 Now caching as a group with Kev (Kevanjue), Gilly & Graeme (Gillywig) and Simon (HollynCharlie). Huge field so just a case of spotting where the cachers ahead of us went - so much for stealth eh?? Signed en masse. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL5PCQT3 | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. Just realised that this is my 600th TFTC |
... | E103 | GL5Q4N7W | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |

... | E104 | GL5MPMG3 | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | HappyCabbage | Another clever hide which I found with antntracey. Also paired up with dixylixy1 to make a team to come last - failed that too! TFTC |
... | E104 | GL5MPP1X | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | Unobtainium | A nice location and great hide. One of the few caches were I was at GZ alone. TFTC Andy K! |

... | E104 | GL5MPZGN | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | landda | No queue at all at this one when we got here. |
... | E104 | GL5MQMRR | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | Stones2005 | 1877 I'm getting confused already - what I wrote for no 3 should have been for this one so here is the log for number three :- Mr Stones jumped down in the ditch and could see the cache but not reach it so directed others to it's hiding place. We signed log while he got out of the ditch. This entry was edited by Stones2005 on Saturday, 21 May 2011 at 18:38:11 UTC. |
... | E104 | GL5MQQ9Z | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | PeCeH | Aha, a road! In his eagerness to get on, Pe shot past this one and quickly had to backtrack to the cache. Nice big hide. TFTC |
... | E104 | GL5MQQBB | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | HollynCharlie | Arrived at this one with Vanguard and Gspleo joining our merry group of cachers. As I was in shorts I let the trouser wearers bring this one out! TFTC! |
... | E104 | GL5MRB2R | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | cbailey8 | Similar gaggle of cachers as came across at number 3, hence the cache was quickly found and the log sheet passed around for signing. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E104 | GL5MRGXG | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Andy managed to hit his head on the branch retrieving this one. It didn't knock any sense into him though as he knocked his head when he put it back too. It was quite a common theme on this cache trail. I think he has slight brain damage now! TFTC! |
... | E104 | GL5MRP9Q | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | a1nnie | Following on my bike those few that weree ahead of me went to the road, whilst one chap turned right along the side of the field. Hmm, the hint suggests that is where the cache is. Now do I follow the lone cacher, whom I didn't know at that time, or do I give him some privacy for the obvious quick pee? Well actually it was where the cache was, thankfully as I did follow him! hee hee. Nice to see a lovely big cache box. TFTC. |
... | E104 | GL5MRVAJ | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | chequerdog | Already a fair old trail forming by the time we arrived close to GZ, quick find after that, TFTC |

... | E104 | GL5MV9ZD | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | cazmockett | #1268 found with Alibags Once at GZ, the cache was staring us in the face. Assumed the previous finders were nattering so much they forgot to put it back in its hidey hole! Whooops. Not the end of the world, as the location was not really overlooked by passing muggles. Dropped off Buzz Lightyear Lego TB for the next (non-event cache) finder. |
... | E104 | GL5MWJZW | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. We're getting to the point where we're having to start searching for ourselves. TFTC |

With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire.

... | E105 | GL5MQQVD | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | HollynCharlie | I almost led our gang down the wrong footpath here but luckily Mcwomble and Gillywig were paying attention and set me right. The heat was definitely rising out here. Another quick find at GZ. TFTC!! |
... | E105 | GL5MQZZE | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | Stones2005 | 1878 Getting hot out here now - definately not feeling the blues! |
... | E105 | GL5MRCTP | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | cbailey8 | Made an error on the way to this cache as we noticed an earlier footpath sign and followed Loony Londo. After a while we worked out that we had made a mistake and needed to turn back to the road with a1nnie. Then we found the right footpath and quickly arrived at the cache location. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E105 | GL5MRGXV | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Quite a few cachers went wrong on the way to this and took the wrong path. We saw them in the distance heading back. Andy whipped out his OS map on his phone and we quickly located the right path. We got to GZ as others were signing the log so this was an easy find for us! TFTC! |
... | E105 | GL5MRQB9 | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | a1nnie | Oh dear, we did get in a pickle here. We turned right much too early, following tyke and Loony Londo down the wrong path! DOH. Had to turn back. Once found the right footpath, cache was easily "found" again in the hands of another cacher. Signed and passed it on. Does this game today qualify for the longest relay? TFTC. I liked the clue ;) |

... | E105 | GL5MTK2F | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | HelennTribe | Saw a large group of cachers coming from the right and a green fotpath arrow so assumed it was the way to go, though not feeling from comfortable as we could no longer see Cassandy.

... | E105 | GL5MWKMG | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | tyke | I'd bought a map for this event as I thought it important to be able to find the footpaths. And indeed it was for this cache. Unfortunately I'd left it at home. We and another team went up the wrong path and had to backtrack. Gave non-committal answer to Mel-Ray when we returned to the road to look for the right track. I apologised when we met later. |

... | E106 | GL5MQ09N | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | landda | Met Schoolfrenz and Kitty at this one out checking on things. And onward to the lakes. |
... | E106 | GL5MQRMH | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | HollynCharlie | This one had us going for a little while. It was quite funny to see so many cachers trying to squeeze into a kissing gate looking for a cache! No idea who found it in the end but we got the relevant info,signed and headed off to the multi's! TFTC! |
... | E106 | GL5MQTZA | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | PeCeH | Quick find with Happileigh. TFTC On leaving GZ, we met Schoolfrenz and Kittycachers checking up on progress and paused for photo opportunity. After this we parted company with Happileigh as we decided to spare Celia's foot an extra two miles by not doing the multi-caches in the nature reserve. Unfortunately, Peter misinterpreted the instructions for the next cache and headed off down the road to the left. Celia had worked out the co-ordinates from the instructions but by then we were well down the road. As a result we found number 8 first and then had to back track to get number 7, costing us (and Celia's foot) at least another half a mile or so. Morale - trust the lady with the GPS before going haring off. It will take me a while to live that one down |
... | E106 | GL5MR0YE | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Stones2005 | 1879 Soon spotted by Mr Stones then we were spotted by Schoolfrenz and Kitty. |
... | E106 | GL5MRE8G | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | cbailey8 | Arrived at the kissing gates and there were quite a few cachers passing the cache around, hence it must have been a tricky hide. Helped a1nnie get her bike over the gates while Alanswright signed the log. Took a waypoint as instructed by Kitty and decided we would work out why after we had completed the multi-caches in the Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E106 | GL5MRGY7 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Thought they were hosting another event when we got to the gate and found the cacher congregation. Schoolfrenz was also there and I heard him mutter "Think Modoku" Ah yes! I remember it well, the one we had to phone him for to ask where it was! With some longer fingers someone eventually retrieved it. Phew! TFTC! |
... | E106 | GL5MRRX0 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | a1nnie | It was quite hilarious to see so many grown adults crammed into a kissing gate feeling for the cache. Finally it was found - well done that cacher! There was quite a huddle of people and I couldn't get my bike up and over the gate without fear of hitting someone with it, but cbailey just lifted it right up and managed to get through the throng! Thanks Clive.:) There was a few moments confusion here. Why did we need to mark this spot? Anywhoo, off to find the multis, we'll worry about it later. |
... | E106 | GL5MRXHY | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | chequerdog | Quickly spotted GZ and were quickly joined by a number of others. Surprising how many we managed to cram in, plus dogs! TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5MT34C | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | antntracey | Really good hide. Having located the cache it was very difficult to retrieve. Eventually retrieved by dixielily1. Now for Chigborough reserve. Not sure how much longer we will be in front of the other cachers out today. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5MTKF8 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | HelennTribe | Arrived at the gate to find SF kindly holding the log book ready for signing. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe |
... | E106 | GL5MV847 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. SL, TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5MV8HW | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Didn't find it | cazmockett | TWO frustrating visits to this one today, one on the route between 7 and 5, when we spent ages feeling all around and up here, there and everywhere. No joy. We thought we'd have another quick go on the way home, via a quick cache and dash in the car, but still none the wiser. Frustrating, as so many other people managed it today. Oh well, at least I can come back for another go when I get around to finding the Chigborough multis, which we decided to give a miss to today, owing to time constraints. |
... | E106 | GL5MWM05 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | mel-ray | {*FTF*} Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC.

... | E106 | GL5MWMHN | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. We met a traffic jam here with several teams passing the log between them and Schoolfrenz holding the cache to replace it when we'd all gone. |
... | E106 | GL5MWRKX | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig, Mcwomble and Simon(Hollyncharlie). was joined at this point by Cassandy, Gpsleo & Vangaurd3 and under the watchful and rather amused eyes of Ray and Anne, The Essex elite cachers' (as Ray called us) proceeded to make a meal of finding this one. I think Gilly found in the end. TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E106 | GL5MX4KR | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Wilcox | First one of the series that could be considered sneaky - TFTC. |
... | E106 | GL5MX8BX | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | gspleo | Found as part of the series. Things started to go wrong here as i didn't read the clues to the next cache so didn't mark wayypoint. Returned after the lakes detour but still didn't realise the relevance of actually marking it. Hence lost a lot of time wandering about. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5MXKW7 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | GrooveFactor5 | TFTC,
Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | E106 | GL5MZAFY | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | happileigh | Cacheing with Mr H on a perfect May Day. This could be tricky- up'n'under as Rugby Eddie used to say! Thanks to Kitty , who pointed us in the direction of the Chigborough Lakes Trail from here.It was to be a while before we returned here.......TFTC! |
... | E106 | GL5MZD1B | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Norbergs | Met up with a few groups ahead of us, and missed the right turn to the Lakes. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5N0MQ2 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | vanguard3 | I think this is the one we stood by with a host of cachers, all missing the obvious. Clever, so a FAV. TFTC. #2124. |
... | E106 | GL5N2DHR | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | We were moving at a faster pace now and once through the farmyard we had to wait for the geese to pass with their goslings. Cache hider had been a bit keen and took a while to retrieve. |
... | E106 | GL5N48ME | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Didn't find it | Alibags | May have had more success if we had been with rent a mob and me and Caz could not find it in two visits today. Ho hum. |
... | E106 | GL5N8ZFV | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | stephia4 | Overtaken now by Stones2005 and they have found the cache, and hidden it again by the time we arrived! Found nice and easily though :o) Schoolfrenz and Kitty sending everyone off to Chigborough Lakes from this point! Good Idea! |
... | E106 | GL5N9Z4K | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E106 | GL5NARDZ | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | We carried on through a large farmyard. The given clues were not too hard. Another micro to here to find.. Number Six was soon all signed. |
... | E106 | GL5NCFN2 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | gillywig | Pedestrian congestion here. "elite" hmmm. Gilly extracted eventually under the watchfully gaze of Anne and Ray. Grahame took advantage of Rays presence and cloackroomed his fleece. Thanks Ray and TFTC. |
... | E106 | GL5NJYGJ | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | mcwomble | #2327 How many cachers can you squeeze in the kissing gate?? A veritable log jam of cachers here, having been joined by the later starters. Gilly soon had it along with a few cries of "but I looked there". Anne & Ray just looked on and heckled ... something about "elite cachers".

... | E106 | GL5PCRM4 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL5Q4NMD | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E106 | GL5R56KN | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Silver Horde | Met quite a few cachers here and the CO, got some added info and confirmed that we were going to do the multi caches in the reserve. Signed the log but handed it off to the CO to re hide. |
... | E106 | GL9AZA8Y | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

... | E107X | GL5MPTQC | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | windywetmud | Enjoyed this one since the bulk of the group went the OTHER way leaving me to discover the little gem with Master mud |
... | E107X | GL5MPZW3 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Tangled-T | |
... | E107X | GL5MQ2HR | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | landda | Missed this one to start with but kind fellow cachers pointed the way - many thanks. |
... | E107X | GL5MQVZZ | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | HollynCharlie | A bit of local knowledge helped us get the jump on a few people here as Mcwomble navigated us through the swamp to this one. Quick find and onto the next one or so we thought! TFTC! |
... | E107X | GL5MQXAC | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | PeCeH | Found after backtracking from number 8 on winding paths through the fishing grounds. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MR7Z5 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | HappyCabbage | Oo-er, this is where it all went a bit wobbly - not sure of the clue made it quite clear enough - but Toby enjoyed a bonus lake to jump in, and we appreciated him smelling a bit less of a swamp too!. Anyway, cache eventually found and onwards. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MR9F6 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Stones2005 | 1883 And this is where it all went wrong for us. We totally misinterpreted the rhyme and did everything until we found a light; then took a mark, calculated offsets, wandered around aimlessly finding nothing and wasting loads of time. Eventually sussed that cache was hidden at offset from original mark taken at cache six, so backtracked to find it where we had walked past about an hour before. Still don't understand the reference to light and dark I know they are used to make the rhyme rhyme But for us they wasted soooooooooo much time For us this cache was no walk in the park So alas from us no favourite mark! |
... | E107X | GL5MRGZ2 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | There was quite a gathering of cachers here. This was good for us as we werent too sure on the hint. Eventually someone found it and it got passed around! TFTC! |
... | E107X | GL5MRMFY | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | cbailey8 | At this point we had teamed up with Wilcox and together we got really confused with the directions for this cache. We worked it out in the end after walking up the gravel road and back along the field (not sure I understand the reference to the light). Wilcox decided to open an envelope and armed with our GPS we made haste to number 8. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E107X | GL5MRYKG | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | chequerdog | This is where our paths diverged but by carefully following the hint we were joint FTF this cache. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MRYRX | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | a1nnie | Everyone got very confused here. There were gaggles of cachers (is there a technical term for a group of cachers?) in the area, going back and forth, scratching our heads and puzzling over the clue. Fortunately some very clever person did find it in the end and the log was passed around. Phew. |
... | E107X | GL5MT73T | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | antntracey | Got really confused with this one. Ended up walking past the cache for several hundred yards to the wrong location. Eventually ianbp opened the envelope and we headed back and to our delight retrieved the cache. A lot of time lost on this one, lots of cachers ahead of us now!! Still caching with dixielily1 also. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MTQZ2 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | HelennTribe | Large gaggle (Annies description) of cachers ahead so B ran to join the Q to sign, whilst H encouraged the little ones to keep moving. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe |
... | E107X | GL5MV7VP | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | cazmockett | #1266 found with Alibags Initially we ended up on the wrong side of the hedge for this one, having taken what we thought was the easy route. Despite hunkering down amongst spikey bushes, the cache remained elusive. So we decided to tackle it from the other side and found a useful way around the hedge. Even then, it was a few minutes more before the cache was in hand. TFTC. |
... | E107X | GL5MV8A2 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. SL, TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MWM8Q | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E107X | GL5MWR1C | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. We misunderstood the rhyme and went way past GZ. On our return we had help from Silver Horde for how much further we had to go back to retrieve this. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MWTKA | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig, Mcwomble and Simon(Hollyncharlie). Initialy dithered about which way to go to find this one and eventualy aprroached from the wrong way, but hey! who cares we found it! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E107X | GL5MX68W | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Wilcox | The proverbial wheels fell off here for about 25 geocachers as we all wondered the dusty track and parallel field path searching randomly. There was alot of head scratching and one certain fallen tree got way too much attention as we all surrounded it in search of the prize (Vanguard was even searching a nearby ditch). If only we knew we were all in the wrong place!
Got there in the end when someone saw sense - and the cache more importantly.
TFTC. |
... | E107X | GL5MXB2P | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | gspleo | Lost a lot of time here as not read the clue properly at the previous cache. Many of us were like "headless chickens" for a while. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MXM08 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | GrooveFactor5 | TFTC,
Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | E107X | GL5MZDTP | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Norbergs | FTF [:) We realised we had missed the turn for Nature reserve and wasted a bit of time finding trail to the next one, so decided not to do the extra 3 in the lakes. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5MZEDR | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | happileigh | Back to the original Trail and I thought it would be plain sailing from here- WRONG! I had carelessly subtracted latitudes from longitudes and we spend a great deal of time further down the track- resorted to PHONE A FRIEND- Thanks Bob! Saw a roe deer tho. Then had to open our first envelope and more mayhem followed :( |
... | E107X | GL5N0TWW | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | By this time cachers were beginning to bunch up. Anybody know the collective term for a gaggle of cachers? We thought we had got it sussed, headed out on our own, no one following, we knew that couldn't be right. Wasted a lot of time then stopped and re-read clue. Time for an envelope opening. |
... | E107X | GL5N0V35 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | vanguard3 | As we left the multi's we saw the biggest collection of cachers I've ever seen on the move; all moving in different directions. We obviously lost the plot as some we never saw again other than ahead in the distance on the seawall. Also took a while to find the cache & to sign it as the cacheing horde bunched up here. TFTC. #2128. |
... | E107X | GL5N902G | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | stephia4 | Silly people semi-following the masses ahead of us we wondered straight past this one. Stood around looking a little confused about the directions until someone finally mentioned we'd missed it. Headed back down the gravel to the field and had cache in hand quickly! TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5N9Z6T | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E107X | GL5NAX6V | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | By Chigborough Lakes we went round and round Three Multi - caches to be found. We lost our instructions, we were now alone, Panic envelope opened , no need for a phone! (We’d forgotten it anyway!)
Two older caches beckoned here, One found, one not, oh dear, dear, dear! Then back to this series, we were already late Signed the log then off to Eight. |
... | E107X | GL5NCMJH | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | gillywig | Exited the lakes and thereby failing to retun to #6 meant passing cachers going in the opposite direction. Some confusion here at first but nothing compared with #7 to #8. Gilly located. SL TFTC. |
... | E107X | GL5NH0TP | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E107X | GL5NJZB3 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | mcwomble | #2331 ... mcwomble spots a short cut. On the route out of the reserve, I spotted some familiar looking faces on the track over the hedge. Quick guys this way so we were heading the wrong way back to 7 much to their confusion. A tricky little hide but Gilly soon found. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5PCX6Y | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | cookie cook | Due to everyone getting confused at this point, a strange site occured.. I counted 18 geocachers in all consulting their GPS, scratching their heads and looking confused. Was a blessing in diguise though as we ended up joing another 9 geocachers for the rest of the walk! TFTC |
... | E107X | GL5Q4QFP | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E107X | GL5R80PZ | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Silver Horde | After struggling to find our way out of the reserve we made our way to here surprisingly easily as we had worked out the right coords from the clue! Mr SH made the find and we signed the log. Then we made our big mistake which could have sent us off the edge but instead we met Loony Londo and Tyke! They were lost too but we helped them to gz here and then we continued on the trail but in the wrong direction! We could not find what we next needed so back and forth we walked looking for a sign and then we met LL & T again and decide to join forces!! They agreed with me (Mr SH had not!)and decided to go for Buttercup Bench which we had coords for and to see if anything resembling our clue turned up!! |
... | E107X | GL9AZA7P | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

... | E108X | GL5MPR7X | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Unobtainium | Had to open an envelope here as the instructions weren't too clear (that is my story and I'm sticking to it gov ;-)) Once we were at the correct GZ, the cache was quickly located. TFTC Andy K! |

... | E108X | GL5MQ30F | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | landda | Oh dear, lots of us confused by this one and milling around on the road after number 7. We gave in and opened our envelope here. |
... | E108X | GL5MQVZ9 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | PeCeH | Found with Norbergs, who approached from the opposite direction. We thought we were going for 7 but this was 8! Signed log anyway. Then we had to open envelope for 7 and backtrack to the right place. Heigh ho... |
... | E108X | GL5MQX4M | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | HollynCharlie | This is where interpretation of the notes caused a lot of problems for us cachers. We ended up with around 20 cachers milling around scratching heads until we saw the light! This certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons with regards the positions. It was at this moment I let my competitive nature take over and used the confusion to make a break! TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MR8CA | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | HappyCabbage | Starting to get back on track now ('scuse the pun) and found it quite quickly, not far from where I always fail to catch any fish!. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MRCH7 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Stones2005 | 1884 Our total disaster continued for this cache - we did as the rhyme said and went back to the gravel track that we had walked up and down several times, but could see no signpost. Then some people who had opened their panic envelope went past us in a totally different direction, so we went that way but still could see no footpath sign (all we did see was a dead fox on a pile of cuttings - lovely!!) We then decided to open our first panic envelope and eventually went in the same direction as others. After a little while we came to a gravel track (a different gravel track!) and from then on the rhyme made perfect sense. [:o] |
... | E108X | GL5MRN40 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | cbailey8 | As Wilcox had the coordinates this was a really easy find and it was nice to know we were back on track after a few problems with number 7. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E108X | GL5MRZHZ | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | chequerdog | We unfortunately got dragged in the wrong direction for 15 minutes before retracing our steps to #7 and then following the directions to the letter. Cache was then in hand and off to #9. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MT09E | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | a1nnie | "Found" easily in another cacher's hands. Cache was relayed over, log signed and relayed on. This looks like a really lovely place for a spot of fishing. TFTC. |
... | E108X | GL5MT6BB | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | We all got a bit confused here and everyone wandered up the gravel path looking for a non-existent footpath sign!!! Eventually AndyK opened his panic envelope so we had a chance of finding it. We were a lonnnnnng way off! We joined the queue of cachers and eventually got it all signed and sorted! TFTC! |
... | E108X | GL5MT820 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | antntracey | A bit confusing intitially as to whch gravel path to take. Decision made though and off we went in search of this one. Surprisingly no other cachers in sight, does this mean we are losing our way again. Luckily not, after a short hike cahe is safely in hand. The chocolate cake certainly went down a treat and has given us ren ewed energy. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MTRP4 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | HelennTribe | A gravel path close to the field enticed us all to it, lots of aimless wonderings now looking for a footpath that fortunatly was not there (if it had been goodness knows where we would have all ended up). Eventually we got it sorted we had to walk all around the field for what was then a really quick find.

Quick find once at GZ - this was relatively visible from the right angle, I hope it doesn't go walkies too quickly. |

... | E108X | GL5MWT43 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo and Silver Horde. Despite being advised by SF after we left the Lakes we still couldn't fathom the route here. So we went to Buttercup Bench where, after finding that, we held our first envelope opening ceremony. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MWV8X | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig, Mcwomble and Simon(Hollyncharlie).Spent some time meandering around trying to make sense of the directions to this cache. Finally someone opened their envelope and we soon realised that the direction should have said South not North. Soon everybody back on track. Anne and Jen were at the end of the track and said they had been waving to attract our attention. Do they not think we would have noticed two young ladies vying for our attention! We think they were sniggering behind a tree whilst watching us all dithering!lol The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E108X | GL5MX6V6 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Wilcox | This rhyme beat us here. So i opened an envelope on behalf of our sub group (me, Groovefactor5, Alanswright and cbailey8). We enjoyed the break from the rhymes as we walked straight to this one. TFTC. |
... | E108X | GL5MXBC6 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | gspleo | Found with vavguard3 and others as part of the series. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MXMAX | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | GrooveFactor5 | TFTC,
Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | E108X | GL5MZFZ2 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Norbergs | FTF Met up with PeCeH who were coming in the other direction. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5MZG0M | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | happileigh | The Rhyme totally flummoxed us here and we went up and down that gravel track another half dozen times. Finally opened the envelope,and followed the arrow only to arrive at huge barbed wire gate. Retraced our steps- Mr H very patient as he's an Ordnance Survey Map rather than GPS man- and I'm beginning to think he's right. Found cache at last- back on track?? TFTC! |
... | E108X | GL5N0W52 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Working as a group now, not understanding the rhyme time to open the cake and then an envelope against my wishes. Things now as clear as mud regarding the gravel mud but the collective moves on. |
... | E108X | GL5N1043 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | vanguard3 | Now in a growing group of cachers. Finds are becoming joint ventures! TFTC. #2129. |
... | E108X | GL5N909V | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | stephia4 | Well this one did baffle us, I think there must have been a good 20 people on the gravel up top getting confused about where on earth we were supposed to be going. Where's this footpath sign eh? We're sure Schoolfrenz wouldn't possibly say there is one if there isn't!!! Arrgghh! Eventually got fed up of discussing the matter and decided it was Panic Envelope time. Mum prodded the co-ords into the Garmin and off we went with a trumpety trump! Footpath sign located and cache soon in hand :o) Yey! A lot of time wasted here though! (p.s. Thanks to those that took extra time to get my Buttercup Bench - even though the Buttercups aren't out yet!) |
... | E108X | GL5N9ZG0 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E108X | GL5NCN4D | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Like Pooh & Piglet going round and round Were those Woozle tracks on the ground? Three times it took to locate this cache, Then off to Nine – we began to dash! |
... | E108X | GL5NCNX5 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | gillywig | Much confusion here. Pacing up and down the drive discussing 125m and compass directions. Remember taking to Brian(of HnB) Mel(of Mel-Ray) Cookie Stephia4 landda and many others berfore getting back on track. It was at this point that Simon made his break for stardom, abducted by Helen(nB) we were led to believe later. SL in the company of kev Cookie Stephia4 and landda. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5NH0B6 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E108X | GL5NJZKF | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | mcwomble | #2332 Quite a bit of confusion with the instructions from cache 7, probably due to everyone's assumption that the track nearby was in fact the correct track. I think there was a call to the hotline and soon we were heading the right way round the field with Simon, Helen & Brian in the vanguard. Found and signed with Tyke & Stephia4. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5PCXJF | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. Thanks again for replacing Buttercup Bench! TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5Q4QXY | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E108X | GL5R83VH | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Silver Horde | While at Buttercup Bench we had had plenty of time to mull over our problem with the directions from GW7. I think it was Tyke that took one for the newly formed team and opened an envelope! Going over it in the cool and calm I know exactly where we miss stepped! But now we are back on track. |
... | E108X | GL9AZ9X4 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'.

... | E109 | GL5MRP05 | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | cbailey8 | We missed the detour to Buttercup Bench but never mind as we were back in the groove. Quickly arrived at the likely cache location and then realized we were on the wrong side of the road. The cache was quickly found by Wilcox and we were caught up by a bunch of cachers. We passed on the cache and set-off towards number 10. Thanks for the cache. |

The rush of cachers had long passed - although we did meet one party a bit further up and stopped for a quick chat.

With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire.

... | E111 | GL5MPT6Y | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Unobtainium | What a lovely view of the boats in the river. TFTC Andy K! |
... | E111 | GL5MPWV1 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | windywetmud | No cachers to be seen in front or behind. All in the pub? |
... | E111 | GL5MQ33R | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Tangled-T | |
... | E111 | GL5MQ4CR | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | landda | Another lovely place I've never been to before. Nice clue and easy find. |
... | E111 | GL5MQYM4 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | HollynCharlie | Still flying along. The breeze was a welcome addition along here! Quite busy along the front but we soon had the cache in hand. Nice to catch up with Peceh here! TFTC! |
... | E111 | GL5MR01W | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | PeCeH | So many muggles along here! Found GZ but searching inconspicuously was so difficult we though about giving up. Then Simon, Helen n Brian and family turned up. Soon found on our way. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MRCMW | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | HappyCabbage | Oh I do like to be beside the seaside - just wish I'd stopped at the pub for a pint on the way through. Still, with the good company of antntracey and dixylixy1 we hit the wall on our Goldhanger marathon and forged on. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MRG3Z | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Stones2005 | 1887 It was lovely walking through the pub garden to be confronted by the view across the water and all the boats. |
... | E111 | GL5MRRBM | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | cbailey8 | Nice walk along the sea wall and we managed to close the gap on the cachers ahead of us. As a result they handed us the cache as we arrived which made life a lot easier. Signed the log and decided to have a look for the Escape to the Blackwater Estuary cache before looking for number 12. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E111 | GL5MT259 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | chequerdog | Muggle alert along this stretch but having the dog provided a bit of diversion. Cache almost immediately in hand. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MT2F4 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | a1nnie | Easily found. Loving this path, after all those bumpy fields! And the sea breeze is refreshing too. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MT6CD | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Really enjoyed the walk along here looking out to sea. Such a lovely area. This one was another quickie. TFTC! |
... | E111 | GL5MTABD | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | antntracey | Nice walk alomg the sea wall. The breeze is certainly welcome. Straightforward find TFTC. |
... | E111 | GL5MTYJW | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | HelennTribe | Met Peter and Celie struggling here so pleased to grab this one quickly. Saw a lovely little boat just after this one and just had to get a pic. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe |
... | E111 | GL5MV565 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | cazmockett | #1262 found with Alibags Arrived at GZ to find another group of cachers, doing the route in the right direction, about to head off towards #12. We stayed and chatted with them for a few minutes and then set off towards #10 ourselves. |
... | E111 | GL5MVAM5 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. SL, TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MWMHD | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E111 | GL5MWW81 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo. A lovely, refreshing sea breeze here so we paused to admire the views and saw a wide range of boats including a Thames barge motoring slowly and an aquafoil going at great speed under sail. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MWWA1 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig & Mcwomble . This cache heralded the start of a lovely sea wall walk overlooking the Blackwater estuary, the view was marred somewhat here, as there seemed to be a propensity of big blokes with tatoo's sitting on plastic chairs plonked on the mud/beach, quite why you would choose this spot to plonk your chair eluded me somewhat! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E111 | GL5MX7CC | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Wilcox | Quick find and onto the next. TFTC. |
... | E111 | GL5MXGA1 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | gspleo | Found as part of the series in company of Vanguard3 and others. TFTC |

... | E111 | GL5MZHH0 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Norbergs | FTF Mr N was the wrong side of the wall. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5MZKY0 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | happileigh | re-energised by Kitty's cake we set off again- I was tired but calculated that Goldhangar was only 2 miles away as the crow flies-if I got fed up-those crows have a lot to answer for! TFTC! |
... | E111 | GL5N147P | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Easily found but muggles around. Had to jump over the sea wall to rescue Toby the dog - good excuse to be there. |
... | E111 | GL5N14KP | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | vanguard3 | I know this area & a stretch of seawall walking coming up. Lovely day & fun to be out walking this series. TFTC. #2132. |
... | E111 | GL5N90PP | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | stephia4 | Was sure i'd seen this one before but turns out that was a few gates away ;o) (Thanks Mel-Ray!) Anyway grabbed the cache, signed the log and on our way once again. Crowds all together by this point I think! |
... | E111 | GL5N9ZPW | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E111 | GL5NCP29 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Muggles in shorts sunbathing in May It really was a beautiful day. We strolled along the winding sea wall Eleven was retrieved, it was pretty small. |
... | E111 | GL5NCRMV | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | gillywig | It was lovely in the sun with a gentle breeze. It was during this strecth that we felt the three of us and James were a team to the finish. Cache easily located and signed. Time for a drink of water and the egg and tomato bagette, hastily assembled seemingly ages ago even though earlier this morning. TFTC. |
... | E111 | GL5NGZP6 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E111 | GL5NQDCH | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | mcwomble | #2335 Nice to be out on the seawall for the breeze and a little break to take on some water. Back with Gilly, Graeme and Kev now for the return trip along the seawall. The various blokes sitting out in their chairs on the mud seemed odd - perhaps they were waiting for the tide so as to fix their boats. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5PCYXR | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | cookie cook | Used to spend a lot of time here when I was a kid. Still looks the same lol. Worth a favourite vote! Will upload image for this cache shortly.. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5Q4R81 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E111 | GL5R89NA | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Silver Horde | Really enjoying the change of scenery along here. We could see a couple of Thames barges making their way up the channel which was a treat as we had seen them moored at the Hythe in Maldon last night. Seemed a bit of a gap in caches along here I will have to investigate!! |
... | E111 | GL9AZ9W1 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

... | E111A | GL5MWWK8 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig & Mcwomble .

... | E111A | GL5N12P7 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Found on the Goldhanger West Trail. Couldn't believe this has not been muggled. Had to be done with stealth. Lovely spot along the sea wall. |

... | E111A | GL5NF0MR | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Found during the launch of the Goldhanger West circular series. Well done for spotting this lovely area before Schoolfrenz and Kitty Cachers. There were sunbathers, fishermen, walkers and bird-watchers all out on the sea wall enjoying the sunshine. SL. TFTC. |
... | E111A | GL5NGYJ8 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | Alibags | found with Caz when we were doing the new Goldhanger series. Had us scratching our heads for a short while and then we found it. |
... | E111A | GL5NQDFB | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | mcwomble | #2336 Completing the Goldhanger West circuit with Gillywig & Kevanjue. I'd have walked past it had Gilly not mentioned this one. TFTC |
... | E111A | GL5R8CV9 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | Silver Horde | Lovely to meet the CO at the Goldhanger event. We enjoyed this stretch of the trail very much, so much to see, birds and boats are two of MR SH's favourite things. He was really interested in the Moth dinghy zipping along on its hydrofoils and going between all the moored yachts! We hope to return and explore some more of the area. Loony Londo replaced the log with a nano log strip as it was all he had with him today. Thanks for the fun. |

... | E112 | GL5MPXHN | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | windywetmud | A bit worried the 100 year storms could put paid to this one. Only 99 years to wait for the next one.... |

... | E112 | GL5MQZD7 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | HollynCharlie | On approach I could see a lady sat on the steps exactly where the cache was. In for a penny in for a pound as they say so I quickly lept over and grabbed the cache and explained to her that it might get very busy here in a minute as we're doing a treaure hunt. She looked at me as though I was mad but I'm very used to that! TFTC |
... | E112 | GL5MR0J6 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | PeCeH | Took advantage of Simon's boldness here. And I didn't have to heave my frame over the wall - my vaulting days are over... TFTC |
... | E112 | GL5MRFCM | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | HappyCabbage | Hmmm, so much for Toby being a labrador retriever. This is our 16th of the day and all he's found is one flat football & nicked a bit of kittycacher's yummy cake! Oh well, good job we ( antntracey, dixylixy1 & I) found it quickly without his help. TFTC |
... | E112 | GL5MRHH0 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | Stones2005 | 1889 I quickly jumped over the gate to find this. Are there some cachers up ahead? Are we eventually catching up? |
... | E112 | GL5MRZ5Q | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | cbailey8 | The other cachers took an alternative route so we were now on our own for a short while. Arrived at the cache location and Wilcox jumped over the sea wall like a salmon and retrieved the cache. Quickly signed the log and headed off towards number 13. Wilcox made a comment that number 17 was a blighter but this did not bother us as we were on a roll. Thanks for the cache. |

With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire.

... | E112 | GL5NCPTG | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A trip in a kayak? No not today We still are only about half-way. Two other cachers came into view Alibags & Cazmockett - we formed a queue.
The girls spoke on their dog and bone,, Remember? We’d forgotten our phone. A hint from Kitty - we just had to delve And soon we’d all signed number Twelve. |
... | E112 | GL5NCTMB | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | gillywig | As we reached Escape to the Blackwater Estuary, Kev and James signed the log (we had previously visited when spending a good evening with the cache owners), moving on I(Gr) found the cache myself. I was struck by the fact that although our 15th find of the day it was the first I'd actually found! SL TFTC. |
... | E112 | GL5NH0G6 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody!

... | E112 | GL5PCZAR | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |

I also recalled I'd had some email correspondence with Loony Londo regarding one of his caches in London, Tally Ho which is outside a pub that my family used to own years ago! Small world! |

... | E113 | GL5MPGWF | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | MasterMud | very tiring walk but wonderful view. |
... | E113 | GL5MPW3G | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Unobtainium | Another quick find, the local mini-muggles were a bit amused by the procession passing by. TFTC Andy K! |
... | E113 | GL5MPXT8 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | windywetmud | tried to be subtle. Not easy with a couple sitting on the wall next to us... |
... | E113 | GL5MQ4FE | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Tangled-T | |
... | E113 | GL5MQ5AH | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | landda | Thanks again to fellow cachers (so sorry can't remember everyone's names)for writing us all in. |
... | E113 | GL5MQZX2 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | HollynCharlie | As we approached this one a group of kids came out of the caravan park and sat on the wall right by us. They luckily didn't take any interest in me. Soon had the cache in hand and off we set. TFTC!! |
... | E113 | GL5MR1DT | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | PeCeH | Muggles on seawall but strangely uninterested in our activities - obviously thought it best not to see the mad people going past. Quick find. And onwards. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MRG3J | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | HappyCabbage | Positively tropical now as we hit the most southerly cache on this circular route. Methinks they're gonna get a bot tougher soon once we move back towards the countryside - still, been nice having a few simpler ones after a few toughies a while back. We're still powering on from strength to strength... Just! TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MRJCA | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Stones2005 | 1890 We definately spied some suspicious characters near a rusty metal pole so knew we were catching up at last. |
... | E113 | GL5MRZPR | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | cbailey8 | Quickly spotted the reference point provided in the clue and the cache was in our hands. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E113 | GL5MT3YD | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | a1nnie | A group of young muggles, who were sitting on the wall, watched the parade of mad people (aka cachers) walk up to a rusty post, mutter under the breath and walk off again. Glad to have provided some entertainment for them! A quick scratch of the head to work out which direction this road to Osea Island might be and we were off again. TFTC. |
... | E113 | GL5MT4TD | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | chequerdog | As if it wasn't hard enough pacing accurately, we were now in furlongs but location identified from the other notes. This is the most likely one to be muggled in future. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MT6CR | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | We'd formed a bit of a mob by this point and it was us, Mel-ray, gspleo, vanguard3, landda, cookie-cook, stephia4, AndyK, and a1nnie for the rest of the caches. So good to be hunting with all our friends. Made the walk even more fun! TFTC! |
... | E113 | GL5MTBRZ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | antntracey | Found the rusty pole and cache was soon in hand. Which way next?? TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MV19G | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | HelennTribe | Lots of young people arrived as we did and decided to sit on the wall here, decided to ignore them and get on with our search assuming they would find us "boring". TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe |
... | E113 | GL5MV3JZ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | cazmockett | #1259 found with Alibags On our clockwise perambulations, other cachers had warned us this one might be rather muggle-ridden. And indeed it was - a group of local yoof were sitting on the sea wall. We decided to rest up and have a quick drink a few yards away and eventually they got bored and moved on. We swooped for a quick grab, sign and replace before moving on ourselves. |
... | E113 | GL5MVAVB | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. SL, TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MWMN8 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E113 | GL5MWWH2 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig & Mcwomble . This cache is on a lovely sea wall walk overlooking the Blackwater estuary, the view was marred somewhat here, as there seemed to be a propensity of big blokes with tatoo's sitting on plastic chairs plonked on the mud/beach, quite why you would choose this spot to plonk your chair eluded me somewhat! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E113 | GL5MWZWK | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo and Silver Horde. TFTC |

... | E113 | GL5MZK10 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Norbergs | FTF Had to wait for a doggle to pass before grabbing the cache. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5MZND4 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | happileigh | Loads of Muggles around- resorted to a "rummage in my backpack" technique TFTC! |
... | E113 | GL5N176P | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | vanguard3 | The happy campers are out in force soaking up the rays. Lovely day. TFTC. #2134. |
... | E113 | GL5N193J | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Bet the local yoofs had never seen so much interest in a rusty pole. Surprising how many cachers had to lean against this pole for a quick rest. |
... | E113 | GL5N912T | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | stephia4 | With a bunch of muggle kids sitting on the sea wall this was carefully extracted and signed for all once again. They must have wondered what on earth we were all doing!! Next route determined and we're all off again :o) |
... | E113 | GL5N9ZWN | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E113 | GL5NCQDJ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | We approached Thirteen - it was obvious where But there many young male muggles with torsos bare (Nice!) Patiently we waited until they had gone. Signed the log - another one! |
... | E113 | GL5NCV2N | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | gillywig | I(Gr) was once more given the task of retriving this one. SL and we continued on our way. (Writing the logs now and reflecting I think I enjoyed this section the most, a great feeling of calm and peacefulness) TFTC. |
... | E113 | GL5NH0CZ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E113 | GL5NQDTQ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | mcwomble | #2338 Found in the company of Gilly & Graeme (Gillywig) and Kev (Kevanjue). Graeme was on a roll, two in a row now! First view of Osea Island. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5PCZHG | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL5Q4RE0 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E113 | GL5R8HJ0 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Silver Horde | We almost walked past some of the caches as we'd be talking about our local caches and fun tricky hides but not this one. Lots of muggles around but no one took any notice of us. Thanks for the excitement. |
... | E113 | GL9AZ9VQ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

Looks like this is my 100th cache - not much is some of the esteemed company we're in today, but I'm happy and having a great day meeting fellow cachers. Toby's starting to look a bit dog tired, but I've got a treat for him when we get back to the pub, so he wags and wanders off. TFTC |

... | E114 | GL5MT6CY | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | This one was a bit of a pain to find. We all huddled around, however about 5minutes later it was vanguard3 who came up trumps! At this point I don't think there was anyone in our little mini team that didn't have blood dripping from somewhere!!! TFTC! |

... | E114 | GL5MZP3E | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | happileigh | Made the mistake of wandering into the caravan site here. Will we open the envelope?? No- got there in the end! TFTC! |

... | E114 | GL5N1A7R | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | With so many cachers in front you need to be a boy scout and follow their trail and that will lead you to the cache. Hope the grass recovers for others that follow later on in the year |
... | E114 | GL5N9173 | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | stephia4 | I think this one had everyone going for a little while. What tree? Not in this one... what about the posts?? Nope it was the tree! Not even sure who eventually came up trumps with it! I think possibly Vanguard3! Well done and thanks :o) |
... | E114 | GL5N9ZYY | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E114 | GL5NCQMM | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The wind was strong, our faces red Sea gulls were soaring overhead A cachers’ trail could easily be seen. And we soon had hold of cache Fourteen |
... | E114 | GL5NCWB4 | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | gillywig | Talk of deliveries to the eastern outpost as we turned north. Then cache soon found well camo'd in the grass. A hands and knees find in grass!... a practice for things to come at #17? Hands knees and grass yes, find no. SL TFTC |
... | E114 | GL5NH0A0 | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody!

... | E115 | GL5MR1P8 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | HollynCharlie | We were definitely thankful of the breeze today. The written instructions were proving spot on and easy to follow and we soon had the cache in hand. TFTC! |

... | E115 | GL5MRJZR | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | HappyCabbage | I see, starting to get a bit more varied now we're back into the 'wilds' of the sea wall. Still, not too long to grab this one. TFTC |
... | E115 | GL5MRNP4 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Stones2005 | 1892 Even bigger queue here to sign the log. Apparently this cache was difficult to find but we didn't have any problems! |
... | E115 | GL5MT22V | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | cbailey8 | Nice walk along the sea wall and the tide seemed to be turning. Had to keep the dogs on the lead to avoid Toby becoming the mud monster again. The instructions were excellent and we soon located and retrieved the cache. Wilcox made another comment about number 17 and mentioned that he would probably open his envelope to save some time. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E115 | GL5MT593 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | a1nnie | Another find. Getting very hot now, but the breeze is very welcome. TFTC. |

From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire.

... | E115 | GL5MZPQM | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | happileigh | By now the high tide at the pub had given way to low tide and muddy creeks that this part of the Essex coast does so well, especially at eventide.Mr H found this one as I was sluicing in the wrong place. TFTC! |
... | E115 | GL5N1BJD | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | By now we are queuing to sign the log. Those at the back of the queue are beginning to get left behind. |
... | E115 | GL5N1F8Y | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | vanguard3 | Now the group is eleven strong: Lots of good chat & pleased to have found it. TFTC. #2136. |
... | E115 | GL5N91A2 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | stephia4 | Lagged behind a bit on the way to this one as i was munching away on my HoolaHoops happily! Got there and the signing was done, so helped mum replace the cache whilst the others trotted on to the next! TFTC |
... | E115 | GL5NA00M | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E115 | GL5NCRGF | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | We liked this cache - a clever hide We didn’t need to look too far inside. Canada Geese swam past with grace As we headed for Sixteen at a steady pace |
... | E115 | GL5NCXG7 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | gillywig | Not found straight away but after a short while. It wasn't G or G, Kev we think (apols James if it was you). SL in the presence of cazmockett. News of the evil 17 and its failure to be found was the topic of conversation as we made our way to the next. TFTC. |
... | E115 | GL5NH087 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E115 | GL5NQEA0 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | mcwomble | #2340 We saw Caz & Ali approaching in the distance as they were doing the walk in reverse so we met up for a chinwag at the cache. News was that the "evil" no 17 remained unfound. We werent quite sure which sluice we should be examining and somewhere along the lines Caz produced the cache. TFTC |
... | E115 | GL5PD011 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |
... | E115 | GL5Q4RJE | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E115 | GL5R8JZV | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Silver Horde | The tide is still coming in and while we searched for this a muddy patch that a few geese were feeding on was soon underwater! We had been told this was a tricky one! Then I made the find!! Thanks for the fun! |
... | E115 | GL9AZ9XG | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches! Please email via my user profile for a full explanation if there are any questions or queries, particularly if you are considering deleting this log! |

... | E116 | GL5MPH8R | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | MasterMud | very tiring walk but wonderful view. |
... | E116 | GL5MPWJ3 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Unobtainium | It helps if you can project coords ;-) TFTC Andy K! |
... | E116 | GL5MPYXD | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | windywetmud | Hurrah . I can see the first two teams in the distance.... |

... | E116 | GL5MQ6AP | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | landda | Still playing catch up at this point. |
... | E116 | GL5MR2DK | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | HollynCharlie | We passed Caz and Alibags going the opposite way here and they told us of the fun to come! Quick find at GZ. It was gorgeous down here |
... | E116 | GL5MR8YH | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | PeCeH | Passed Cazmockett and Alibags going the other way. Quick find and onwards. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MRQ69 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Stones2005 | 1893 We managed a bit of "power walking" here to get ahead of the pack, so had found and replaced before others came along. |
... | E116 | GL5MRW99 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | HappyCabbage | Starting to look like a bus queue at some of the caches now! Still, Toby passes the time by going for another dip (lost count how many - he's just permanently wet). Onto the one marked 'evil'. Ooo-err! TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MT41H | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | cbailey8 | The walk along the sea wall continues and GrooveFactor5 is starting to feel the pace (even Jasmine is starting to plod along). As we approached the cache location Wilcox and Alanswright nipped down the bank to locate the cache. The instructions were spot on as usual and so it was a quick find. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E116 | GL5MT6E1 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | I think a few of our mini team missed this one, however we just searched a bit deeper in the area they'd located. It was Andy who came up with the goods here. TFTC! |
... | E116 | GL5MT8A7 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | chequerdog | Punched in the co-ordinates at #15, they looked logical and off we went with Reg the dog eyeing the incoming tide longingly. Spied Wetwindymud at likely GZ confirming we were correct. Cache soon in hand and off we set for the one that we feared the most having read last night's account. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MTEF2 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | antntracey | Another one down, this is a really enjoyable series!! TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MV0AV | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | cazmockett | #1256 found with Alibags Read the location clue with some trepidation, as it seemed very similar to the dreaded #17. However, our fears were proven unfounded and the cache was soon in hand. TFTC. |
... | E116 | GL5MV3JR | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | HelennTribe | Second good morning to Caz and Ali and some admiring of Thistles before a quick fnd here.

... | E116 | GL5MVBAG | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Alanswright | found with Cbailey8 and GrooveFactor 5 on the launch event. SL, TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MWMZA | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E116 | GL5MWXBA | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Gillywig & Mcwomble . This cache is on a lovely sea wall walk overlooking the Blackwater estuary, Met up here with Cazmoket and Alibags who gave us the good news that no-one yet had found the legendary No. 17! now looking forward to the challenge! how sweet that victory would taste!, it was making our mouths water! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E116 | GL5MX866 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Wilcox | Quick find and onto the next. TFTC. The sea breeze was very welcome on this stretch. |
... | E116 | GL5MXN1E | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | GrooveFactor5 | TFTC,
Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | E116 | GL5MXV12 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | tyke | With Loony Londo and Silver Horde. With all of us mostly western hemisphere cachers the easting sums caused us problems This entry was edited by tyke on Sunday, 22 May 2011 at 12:10:23 UTC. |
... | E116 | GL5MY8YK | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | a1nnie | Found on a lovely hot May day out caching with a very large group of cachers on the trail launch day. TFTC.

... | E116 | GL5MZMVV | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Norbergs | FTF had to open panic envelope as our co-ords working out was off a bit, once correct co-ords in we realised could of got here if only we had looked properly before. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5MZQNP | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | happileigh | I am baffled by science here and opened the envelope, then realised what I should have done. Clever hide!The ingenuity of this series is amazing! TFTC! |
... | E116 | GL5N1EDQ | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | We were all queuing at the caches now and finding time to chat to others in the queue. It was good to take time out to talk to other cachers and put faces to names. |
... | E116 | GL5N1FYM | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Write note | vanguard3 | Can't claim this one as I didn't go to the cache. Being at the front I walked past it & didn't go back. But I will be back in the future. |
... | E116 | GL5N91E2 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | stephia4 | Still attempting to catch up after Landda's awful attempts at replacing the log into the cache container! Grabbed cache quickly though and on we went to re-join the gang! |
... | E116 | GL5NA02Q | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E116 | GL5NCT1X | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Another cache, another find, Another log happily we signed. Back on the wall, towards Seventeen we headed Prior warnings indicating the DNF we dreaded. |
... | E116 | GL5NCZ1D | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | gillywig | Gilly found this one as we looked down from above. Log duly signed and onwards. It was at this point that the delicious fridge cake was removed from the oven of my pocket, its silver foil carefully removed and somehow it was devoured. Chocolate fingers licked clean, led to the discovery that I'd lost my glasses. Ah well a small price to pay for a delicious treat. It was also here that we were joined by Wilcox, pleased to meet you. Update on glasess : Found by Rallisalli and returned to Ray. Thanks to both. (Rallisalli can claim a FTF ) This entry was edited by gillywig on Tuesday, 24 May 2011 at 09:51:00 UTC. |

... | E116 | GL5NQEFE | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | mcwomble | #2341 More chatting along the walk, one of the great things about mob caching. Picked up Graeme's course notes, presumably dropped going for the chocolate cake. At the GZ whilst we were scrabbling for the course, Gilly had scampered off and found the cache. Now for 17 and the hive of activity in the distance. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL5PD0C6 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |

... | E116 | GL5R8MK8 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Silver Horde | We all had some fun with our calculations on this one but we all agreed in the end and got to gz where after a short search I was the lucky finder. I'd just found another cache using this type of container earlier in our trip, strange coincidence! |
... | E116 | GL9AZA8P | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'.

... | E117 | GL5MPX3C | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Unobtainium | Ray, Ray, Ray. 9 of us searched for 20 minutes with no luck. Was really loathed to walk away. Andy K! |
... | E117 | GL5MQ13W | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | windywetmud | I bet noone has ever given a could not find a favourite tag before...Well I am going to. The whole walk has been brilliant and every hide has been of fantastic quality. I hear that this one also would have been exceptional (If it is there?) Interestingly I had a theory that there was more to the clue than met the eye. I thought we might be looking for a toy snake in the grass to start with (LOTS OF S'S IN 'SUSSED'). Then noticed that the fence post had a 'COBRA' tag on it. Intentional or Chance? Would the number 12 on the post be relevant...........I guess not |
... | E117 | GL5MQ6RN | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Tangled-T | I really hate walking away from a cache without finding it, but the Norbergs made the right choice and dragged me away. Grrr. |
... | E117 | GL5MQ6WH | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | landda | Caught the group again at this one and lots of us looking for this one but it defeated us all. A fellow cacher opened the next envelope here to enable us all to move on. Many thanks. |
... | E117 | GL5MQMVE | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | mel-ray | To Bad So Sad...DNF Went back with Cassandy for the second time hoping to find this mysterious cache..Deffinately found itself legs and wondered off into the blue yonder.

... | E117 | GL5MR2WN | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | HollynCharlie | We arrived at GZ to find a very trodden down section of grass. We had a good idea of what we were looking for but after a few minutes we decided to cut our losses and move on. Jen and I will be back! |
... | E117 | GL5MRAB7 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | PeCeH | Our only DNF on the loop. Major search party composed of at least seven cachers but no luck. Had an idea what the cache container might be but that didn't help. We will be back but I reckon this cache must be the furthest from any road so it may be some time.... |
... | E117 | GL5MRJJA | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Geocass&Andy750x | Well, we got here, not realising quite how evil it would be! We all (11 of us) searched for about 10 minutes before I volunteered to be panic envelope person! We couldn't let it go however, and as we had a DNF on cache #20 we wanted to come back so thought we'd try to be the FTF with Ray and Mel here, so we trekked a mile back on sore toes only to find that Dixie Lily1 was also there having a go. God knows how long they'd been there. God knows how long we spent there, but despite schoolfrenz giving us an exact hint of where it was we STILL didn't find it. A d1.5/t1.5??? I think this is more a d5/t1.5. As we didn't win anything today I thought I'd have a go at trying to win a photo competition for this one! See what you think of my shot. We were there for quite a while... |
... | E117 | GL5MRTHY | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Stones2005 | We arrived here to find Gillywig, McWomble and Kevanjue frantically searching for the little blighter so we joined in, examining every blade of grass. Quickly joined by the others we had just passed, who joined in the hunt. It seemed we had a "Cache bash within a Cache bash" going on! Didn't seem as though the cache itself wanted to join the festivities though! Eventually resorted to someone volunteering to open their panic envelope to find the next coords. Onwards whilst sobbing loudly! |
... | E117 | GL5MRXN4 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | HappyCabbage | Pretty much half the cachers out were searching for this one together. So many builders-bums it was difficult to now where to look as 20 or so, supposedly grown adults, are on hands and knees rooting around for this one. Cant wait to see some more pictures from here as it will sure look a sight. Our only DNF of the day - did anyone find it? |
... | E117 | GL5MT6RP | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | Kitty!! | Can I claim First to Find for finding it when I checked all caches were in place yesterday afternoon? |
... | E117 | GL5MT8QB | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | cbailey8 | As we approached the cache location all of the tell tale signs of a DNF were there. Grown adults on their knees inspecting grasses and a forlorn mcwomble wringing his hands. At this point we should have turned on our heels and headed off towards number 18. But like caching lemmings we could not resist and soon we looking all over the place to find the "pesky" cache. The search continued while the dogs went in and out of the water to cool down.
After a significant period of time we decided that enough was enough and that it was time to leave. We abandoned Wilcox as he was in the "just a couple more minutes mode" and had lost the power of rational thought. It really hurts to leave a DNF in the middle of a series but there was no option.
I will have to contact Scarecrow Rog as he is the master of fiendish caches and this could be a good test for him and Frenchboy. I will keep an eye on this cache and might return in a few months time to remove this blot from my Goldhanger record. |
... | E117 | GL5MT9RH | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | chequerdog | It has all been said already. Our only DNF and we opened the envelope to get the exact co-ordinates but no help!! We were now joined by a gaggle of elite cachers who threw in the towel even faster than us, so off we set together with PeCeh and Tequila the dog. |
... | E117 | GL5MTEVZ | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | windywetmud | Well I would have given it a favourite had the cunning programmers at Geocaching world HQ let it be possible. Here is a virtual Favourite instead |
... | E117 | GL5MTFK2 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | antntracey | This one certainly lived up to the 'evil' reputation. Having spent 15 minutes searching with numerous others we bit the bullet and opened the emergency envelope and headed onto G18. Interested to know if anyone found it!! Definitely one to come back for at a later date!! |
... | E117 | GL5MTRWF | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | happileigh | WE had been pre-warned that No 17 was evil and so it proved-even opened the envelope for the correct co-ords, but No- our only DNF of the day |
... | E117 | GL5MTZH8 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | cazmockett | Proudly going to claim first to DNF this one with Alibags!! As we were doing the circuit backwards, we were the first to arrive at this pesky little b*gger. Searched for a good 15-20 mins to no avail when the party of Norburgs hove into view. They joined in the frantic search. Still no joy. Pleading calls to the Kitty helpline elicited no help at all! Argh! Eventually gave up and gave in, leaving Norbergs plus a few others who had just turned up to give it a go. I hate DNF's half way around a long loop, this one was really frustrating. Although I do feel better knowing it wasn't just us being crap as it seems nobody found it! However, I do think this needs a review of the 1.5 difficulty rating, in view of the number of DNFs today! (I wonder how many cumulative finds all of those who DNF'd had between them? LOL). |
... | E117 | GL5MV2QX | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | HelennTribe | Arrived here to hear stories of DNF's and long searches, as much as the glory of a FTF was tempting it was an easy decision that we were not going to waste all the time we had made up, we would keep going whilst we were ahead and forfiet a find.
helennbrian n 2/4 tribe |
... | E117 | GL5MVBHV | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Alanswright | the only DNF of the day. Will come back for this one at sometime in the future. |
... | E117 | GL5MWY2J | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | kevanjue | unfound In the the company of Gillywig & Mcwomble . Thought we stood a bit of a chance here as James knew what we should be looking for , so then on your hands and knees and start looking. Soon joined by more and more cachers all hell bent on finding. We searched what seemed to be every blade of grass whilst Graham went into lawnmower mode in his quest for the holy grail!. I reckon we looked for about 1/2 hour all to no avail, so bowed to the inevitable and went onwards without our prize. TFTC |
... | E117 | GL5MX3RQ | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | scarecrow rog | Hey you horrible lot WOT'S OCCURIN ? you all missing something ? told you I would be around, shall I replace it ? or shall I not ? I did decide but I forgot.
Might do, might not who knows.
Did anyone see me ? who do you think that barmaid washing up after the bacon rolls was ? who do you think that very old Gent dog walker with the very bad limp was ? who do you think that dark shadow behind the water pump outside the Pub was ? sorry everyone but all you so called A listers are soooo gullible Scarecrow Rog
I don't much like it up here in these Northern parts and I think my job is now done.
Great to see you all looking for what was it now ? oh just remembered it was nothing . |
... | E117 | GL5MX997 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Wilcox | We were all defeated here. We had an idea of what this cache would look like and we knew it was going to be very tough in all this long grass. I stayed to the bitter end and a few of us had to litteraly drag mcwomble away. I feared that had we left him, he would have found this alone as he always seems to do with these difficult ones. This was pure evil |
... | E117 | GL5MXKAT | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | gspleo | Difficulty 1.5 surely not. Like eveyone else we had no success even though I had a good idea what to look for. Judging by all the cacher trails at GZ I think it must have been trampled. Perhaps Scarecrow has taken it as a spare!! |
... | E117 | GL5MXVQB | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | tyke | With Loony Londo and Silver Horde. What can I say? The only DNF of our 34 cache day.

... | E117 | GL5MY9ZT | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | a1nnie | The only consolation is that nobody else found this one either. I had trouble even finding the location so stopped for a very short picnic before oopening up the envelope and moving on.

... | E117 | GL5MZPTW | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Norbergs | Grrrrrrrrr!!!! our only DNF for the day , met up with the girls doing to route in reverse and looked for too long really come on Pete lets not waste anymore time!! but did open the gate for 2 young totties on horses our good deed for the day. |
... | E117 | GL5MZT7F | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | happileigh | We had been warned that this one was tricky- the cachers trails were hilarious- swathes of grass flattened all around. Opened the envelope in a attempt to get the co-ords but that didn't help either- our only DNF of the day I'm sure Scarecrow wouldn't.......would he??? |
... | E117 | GL5N1HPA | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | vanguard3 | A very very DNF for me here. |
... | E117 | GL5N1K4Y | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Dixie Lily1 | When we got there we thought all the cachers had turned into ostridges with all the heads down and all the backsides up. What a way to spend a day! Many a happy hour spent sifting through the grass to find nothing. After finishing the trail and a rest and a pint in the pub, the beer got the better of us and had to go back, was not going to be defeated. Unfortunately we were, so were the others that had gone back to join us. |

... | E117 | GL5NCVK9 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | rallisalli & hawkeye | As mentioned in our Cache Meet verse*, The sight that greeted us here made us curse. A thousand feet had trampled the site We crawled,we peered and gave up the fight.
Like everyone else throughout the day, This cache eluded us - Oh Anne, Oh Ray! Did you have to locate this cache so far From any road.or park for a car?
Shoulders drooping, our morale at a low, We still had a fair distance for us to go. But the sun was shining and how blue the sky, Then a lovely Thames barge sailed slowly by.
*http://coord.info/GC2N0TD
****FOUND..... at the cache site, buried in the flattened grass, a pair of prescription glasses, a little worse for wear, but recoverableable. We have left them with Ray.

We echo kevanjue and Wilcox in their logs. James just wouldn't give up. |
... | E117 | GL5NQEVJ | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | mcwomble | It was easy to spot there'd been a caching convention here. I had a good idea what we were looking for, but it was difficult to tell with a lot of the areas flattened. Having thought we were the last group, I was surprised when more and more cachers arrived - our own little convention. Eventually envelopes were opened and the numbers drifted away, until just myself, Wilcox, Kev, Gilly & Graeme. Kev put his foot down and the rest of us were dragged away. I HATE leaving a tricky cache unfound. |
... | E117 | GL5R8NMB | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Didn't find it | Silver Horde | What more can be said on this cache that has not already been said! We spent the most time on this one and then I took one for the group and opened an envelope, what a waste no help in there!! Then we needed to open another envelope to find out where to go next!! Time to move on, hope we get back to this one day!! |

Luckily we spied some cachers in the distance who had just appeared from a bush which made this hide easy as otherwise we'd have had to open an envelope! TFTC |

And what's that I see on the horizon? Yes, it's the church next door to the pub! Not long now. Right then, onwards. C'mon Toby, out of the water! TFTC |
... | E118 | GL5MT6D6 | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Having had to panic at G17 we knew exactly where this would be. Mel had strolled quite a way ahead, so Ray rang her with where we suspected it would be and she went and found it before we all got there. TFTC! |

With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |

... | E118 | GL5NH04F | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E118 | GL5NK1XD | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | gillywig | After our communal disappointment at #17, a nice easy find. Filling in our score card, we realise that it's an hour since we last found a cache!! SL TFTC |

... | E118 | GL5Q4RQ2 | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E118 | GL5R8QBK | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | Silver Horde | Crows can fly across water but we need to walk around to this lovely spot. We can see the village church in the distance, will our path take us direct or carry on along the sea wall? I wonder, as I'm getting a bit tired now!! |

Eventually the fishermen packed up and they left We retrieved the cache from its hidden cleft. We signed the log and replaced the cache. Other muggles approached - we got up in a flash!

With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E120 | GL5MWYHT | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Wilcox, Gillywig & Mcwomble . This cache is on a lovely sea wall walk overlooking the Blackwater estuary, The thought of the end and the pub approaching was now begining to drive us on! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E120 | GL5MXA0H | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Wilcox | Quick find and onto the next. TFTC. The sea breeze was very welcome on this stretch. |

... | E120 | GL5MYBCC | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | a1nnie | Arggh the second DNF of the day. There were loads of us looking; several sets of fingers must have missed this by inches. I will be back.

... | E120 | GL5MZW6C | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | happileigh | I know some had had trouble with this one, so was delighted to find it, following the clue!Taking serene evening pics of boats now- surely I can win the best pic competition at least??! TFTC! |
... | E120 | GL5N1N8X | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | vanguard3 | How many of us searching for this one? Now I know it is there as I can see happileigh's log-she must have got there before midnight. |
... | E120 | GL5N1P9V | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Don't know what the muggles thought of everybody, it seemed we were there for ages but I don't suppose it was that long. As 17 had eluded us we did not need any other "did not find". |
... | E120 | GL5N9241 | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | stephia4 | Unbelievable, 9 pairs of eyes and no-one could find it??? And i know it was there having bumped into Mel-Ray yesterday they told us they went back and found it straight away. Reading the logs it looks like Cassandy did too! Well done to you dedicated people! can't believe we missed it! |
... | E120 | GL5NA0MV | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E120 | GL5NCX52 | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Cache number Twenty had a clever clue, And from the site was a lovely view. Another cache found, another to add to our list, But we were getting late – would we be missed? |
... | E120 | GL5NGZRP | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E120 | GL5NK27V | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | gillywig | After a quick look at the obvious locations, a more detailled inspection revealed the prize. Not so easy to return the cache, as the ground is so dry, but returned as per the clue. SL TFTC |
... | E120 | GL5NQFCA | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | mcwomble | #2344 Our first encounter with muggles since the plastic chairs by no.11 - didn't they know we got the seawall booked for the afternoon ??? Nearly home and we're mob caching, so many eyes and hands that the cache was soon found. TFTC |
... | E120 | GL5Q4RZC | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E120 | GL5R8T9H | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Silver Horde | Seeing the village getting closer we are re energised and our spirits are up especially as this was another tricky hide but we make the find quickly! |
... | E120 | GL9AZAB6 | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches!

Looked around for quite a while and others were also looking here. We then decided to carry on a bit as we could see more steps further on and lo and behold there was a tree 50 yards on from them which had a lovely cache. No need to open panic envelope. We also found a pair of sunglasses here which were reunited with their owner later at the pub. |
... | E121 | GL5MT24H | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | HappyCabbage | Oh, you mean that set of steps! Sneaky. Nice quick find once you know you're in the right place. Lovely little container and we're heading back now. TFTC |

... | E121 | GL5MTHGN | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | chequerdog | Once close to GZ the likely candidate became obvious. Cache was soon in hand noting that this was a different type of container. TFTC |

Well we couldn't have that! I put my foot down and caught up A brilliant, well thought out and organised trail. My favourite part other than caching with friends was definitely the poetic hints and personally I think rhyming hints should be made compulsory by Groundspeak. Maybe 'Red Duster' could have a word! TFTC and a great series! |

Thank you to Kitty Cachers and Schoolfrenz for all the hard work that they both put in to it and a big thanks for the cake that kept us going and the second bit of cake that gave us the energy to go back to evil No. 17. Very enjoyable series - looking forward to the next one. |
... | E122 | GL5N92QC | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | stephia4 | Final cache of the loop found speedily by Cass as we all gathered around ready to get back to the pub. What a great day, a brilliant route, fantastic weather and so great to walk the last part in such a chirpy group. Many Thanks once again to Schoolfrenz and The Kitty Cachers! And to all those on the final leg (Mel-Ray, Cassandy, Red Duster(AndyK), gspleo, vanguard3 + Annie1) |
... | E122 | GL5NA0VY | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E122 | GL5NCZ5X | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The final cache across a playing field The simple hiding place its cache did yield. We headed back towards the pub, With the thought of a drink and some welcome grub!
Again we really thank you,Ray and Anne What a great event you put into plan. Fifty-two out and fifty two back (Eventually!) All in agreement – you are on the right track.
Another event on another day In 2013 again in May? Whenever it is , of this I’m sure, We’ll all be back again for more.
Finally I would like to say, Especially to my friend Ray, These little rhymes may not be to your taste, But do please note NO COPY and PASTE!!! |
... | E122 | GL5NH001 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody! I enjoyed the walk and the sunshine (and the sneaky pint half way round!), so all in all it was a nice day out (rounded off with a curry later). Apologies for the copy and paste nature of the logs, but as I didn't have the caches entered in my GPS, I was not able to take my usual field notes on my way round. Thanks for setting the series. |
... | E122 | GL5NK34Z | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | gillywig | Quite a gathering at this last cache and Wilcox kindly signed for everyone. Walking on to the pub, reflecting on a brilliant day's caching. A lovely route, very varied, with some great scenery, fantastic company and great hospitality. SL TFTC and a masterpiece of organisation |
... | E122 | GL5NQFZR | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | mcwomble | #2347 One more and then the pub. A rather comic scene walking through the tree tunnel towards Fish St - a horde of ravenous cachers anxious to get to the pub, and an elderly couple walking their dog completely oblivious to the traffic jam behind them. When they "pulled over" Wilcox was in the vanguard for the cache.
Thanks for a great series of caches (including #17). Thanks also to Kev, Gilly & Graeme for being great company all after. TFTC |
... | E122 | GL5PD3ET | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | cookie cook | Well what a manic day! Great route, weather, company, caches, and experience. Having spent a year never meeting another cacher (except Ray) it was great to do it in a big group. Also nice to put faces to names! Thansk Schoolfrenz for a great day and all the effort! |
... | E122 | GL5Q4T92 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Shirst | Never done a general log but have gotten so far behind and want to do more caching so needs must! To be honest, as much as I enjoyed this event I don’t remember many of the caches (a few I didn’t even see – which feels a little like cheating) and we went so fast I didn’t write everything down like I normally do. Perhaps I shall redo this walk (as I still have to find 17) and that time I shall make notes and write better logs. TFTC and all the hard work and effort that went into this meet and series – it was truly amazing and memorable. |
... | E122 | GL5R8YN7 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Silver Horde | Following the clues we make our way to the last cache and I make a quick find and we are ready for the pub!! It's 6:00pm when we walk in the door and we sit with a few of the cachers still there. Great series and one of the longer walks I've done while geocaching!! Had some well deserved dinner at the Chequers which fills up quickly for the evening. Then we are on our way home to West Sussex. Thanks for a great day out. |
... | E122 | GL9AZAC8 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Andy750x | Previously found and signed this cache as 'cassandy'. Now relogging as we've now split the account into two: 'Cassandy' (Cass) and 'cass-andy' (Andy) which will both be renamed after logging the 11,000+ caches! Please email via my user profile for a full explanation if there are any questions or queries, particularly if you are considering deleting this log! |

... | E201 | GL5MPYX0 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Unobtainium | The sign of a great event is when everybody is too busy chatting to notice they've walked past the cache. I did it on purpose to see who was awake, honest :-D TFTC Andy K! |
... | E201 | GL5MQ3Y4 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | windywetmud | A proper treasure trove in a proper treasure trove hole.My favourite of the walk me thinks |

... | E201 | GL5MR5YP | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | HollynCharlie | Having shorts on I was glad of someone with me who had trousers on here! Quick find and off to the last one! I can definitely see the pub I'm sure of it! TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5MRF38 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | PeCeH | Which way is east? Forking track? Went a few yards in the wrong direction but soon back on the right track. Found hide easily with Chequerdog. TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5MT1GQ | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Stones2005 | 1898 I got sent in for this as I was wearing trousers - quite spooky in here! |
... | E201 | GL5MT3DJ | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | HappyCabbage | At last we're away from the wall. Went past this one first time, so had to do a 180 and go find it. Now the real dilemma of the day is starting. Beer or coke? Just one more to go. TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5MT6DT | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Geocass&Andy750x | Took us a little while to work out the footpaths here. Eventually me, vanguarg3 and stephia4 strolled over to the cache location only to find gspleo retrieving the cache. How did he sneak off? All signed and then onwards. The thought of a nice cold drink kept us going for this last stretch! TFTC! |
... | E201 | GL5MTFN8 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | cbailey8 | It was a nice feeling to leave the sea wall as this meant the end was truly in sight. Made a wrong turn at the footpath but we realized this straight away and we soon arrived at the cache location. The cache was found by the team. Thanks for the cache. |
... | E201 | GL5MTJ60 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | chequerdog | Initially set off in the wrong direction, retraced our steps and identified the described hiding place. A bit of a crawl but possibly the largest container was soon in hand. TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5MTJDB | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | antntracey | Good instruction led us straight to this one. The crowd has thinned out again now, maybe they are all in the Pub!! A few stings to the legs retrieving this one. One more to go!!! TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5MTTG2 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | cazmockett | #1051 found with Alibags Another peaceful spot, we got a bit stung on the way down but the prize was soon in hand. TFTC. |
... | E201 | GL5MV69N | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | HelennTribe | FTF Mr WWM ran ahead here which was very nice of him as this one appeared to be a stinging nettle nest. The end was seemingly in sight which renewed our energies to keep on going. TFTC helennbrian n 2/4 tribe This entry was edited by helennbrian on Sunday, 22 May 2011 at 06:36:38 UTC. |

... | E201 | GL5MWN96 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | mel-ray | Thanks to Ray, Christine and Anne for another great event, this is getting better and bigger by the year, wonder what the EastEnders will come up with next year. With a good start with hellennbrian’ little ones we soon got mixed up with the mayhem in and around the Chigborough Nature Reserve where so many lost and found their way along with team members. Good fun here from Wilcox in the woods to Shirst and Pipsta having a picnic aside the road watching us all taking the wrong way. From here it was all down the wall mixing and matching with a1nnie, Cassandy, cookie cook, gspleo, landda, Red Duster, stephia4 & vanguard3 where the final steep incline to the pub was like the movie chariots of fire. If we didn’t take part we would have regret it for life, that’s how spectacular a day it was & ST4TC. |
... | E201 | GL5MWYW5 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | kevanjue | Found in the the company of Wilcox, Gillywig & Mcwomble . This cache is on a lovely sea wall walk overlooking the Blackwater estuary, initially choose the wrong side of the trees ,but soon rectified and Gilly retrieved the cache.The thought of the end and the pub approaching was now begining to drive us on! The poor cache had no chance of remaining hidden under this onslaught! TFTC SL TNLN |
... | E201 | GL5MXA73 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Wilcox | Quick find and onto the next. TFTC. The sea breeze was very welcome on this stretch. |

Found on way around the Goldhanger Trail launch, along with CB8 and ASW (and others). |
... | E201 | GL5MXWH5 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | gspleo | Chatting away and strolled right past GZ. Backtracked and quick find. Glad I wasn't wearing shorts . Took schoolfrenz path tag left nothing. TFTC. One more to go now and off to the pub |

... | E201 | GL5MYCCA | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | a1nnie | With plenty of paths to choose from, it took us a few minutes to work out exactly where this one was. Nice sized box in a great hiding place, just perfect for a cache. TFTC.

... | E201 | GL5MZY0J | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | happileigh | Fought my way through several lots of nettles before I found the right place- made for a cache! A lovely big box, full of goodies- many thanks for my special souvenir tag. TFTC! |
... | E201 | GL5N1PEQ | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | vanguard3 | My turn to crawl in again. Where is it? Two inches from my nose DER!!!. I love these containers. A FAV. TFTC. #2140. |
... | E201 | GL5N1RTF | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Dixie Lily1 | Nice easy find. Very good hiding place. The nettles still had plenty of sting in them by the time we got there. |
... | E201 | GL5N92GH | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | stephia4 | This one had us briefly baffled and after walking part of the way down the route back we decided to about-turn. This just wasn't right. Returned to the point of confusion and decided it must be over there!!! It was, and arriving at GZ i was surprised to find a cacher already there grabbing at the box. It was gspleo! When did he get there?! lol. Thanks for signing for everyone! |
... | E201 | GL5NA0T1 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Rob_Anna | Found whilst doing the goldhanger event |
... | E201 | GL5NCYMD | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | As we turned a corner we could see the church tower, Only two caches to go, at this late hour. A lovely big box with plenty of toys. Lots of fun for girls and boys. |
... | E201 | GL5NGZYV | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Alibags | Out caching from the event but myself and Caz decided to do these in reverse order as we are not especially competetive and going the 'wrong way' we got to meet everybody!

... | E201 | GL5NK2QD | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | gillywig | A choice of approaches here, and luckily we picked the right one. A nettly approach and cropped trousers? Oh, well .... just got to be brave!! Found tucked away by getting down on my hands and knees. We can almost see the pint now! SL TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5NQFP5 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | mcwomble | #2346 Whilst #21 might have been a bit of blur, #22 had the immortal words (now go back!). Arrived to find the willow alive with cachers scurrying around the trunk like ants - the cache soon emerged! TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5PD258 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | cookie cook | Sorry for the late logs! Full report on #23. TFTC |

Mr SH went round one side of the spinney and I went the other and he made the find. Gosh the church is getting very close now, hope the pub is open! |

... | E424 | GL5MT3EJ | Essex 100 - 4/24 - Arrow | Found it | mick n sandie | Thought this was going to be another DNF, but we'd been at the wrong pointy thing ha ha. Very pleased when we realised! TFTC |
... | RR003X | GL5NKFPK | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | No problem solving this one as herringbones were part of our road- rallying days in the seventies which is when we met Schoolfrenz. Came to do this one after completing the nearby GoldhangerWest Loop on it's launch day. Picked a likely looking place for GZ but we were misled! Soon found the right place though. SL. TFTC. |

... | RR009 | GL5NKJ16 | RR009 - Noughty One | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Last find of the day having completed the Goldhanger West Loop and the Chigborough Lakes series plus a few others to make a total of 31 finds and twoDNFs for the day. Solved this one a while ago and was glad we didn't have this type of instruction on the road rallies which we enjoyed in the seventies, which is when we first met Schoolfrenz. Liked the mental challenge - locating the cache was less taxing. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR012 | GL5MT4YV | RR012 - OScillation | Found it | Stones2005 | 1900 Loved this puzzle - I do seem to like ones with weird names in them! Found a parking spot along from the caravans, and after a quick walk the cache was found. Thought I saw a very rare pink butterfly near here, but it turned out to be a rose petal! (Must have had too much sun/beer today!) TFTC |
... | RR019X | GL5MT94R | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Found it | Stones2005 | 1903 A fun puzzle which was solved months ago. Last find of the day after a hard days caching at the Goldhanger West trail launch - and we probably should have stopped at the previous one! We parked near Great Totham church and walked through two fields of rapeseed which was taller than us but had collapsed in over the footpath making a kind of tunnel which we had to keep moving out of the way with our arms - a machete would have been useful! Then when we got to gz it was nettle central and no sign of the cache. As a last resort we read the previous log which said that coords took them 30ft too far to the east, so we repositioned slightly and with a last concerted effort, the cache was finally in hand. Now to just get back through that rape field! TFTC |

The day got off to a great start with chats over bacon rolls and coffee. Then the fig cake from Kitty was just to die for. The route was nice and flat with the free flow multi's breaking the pack up nicely. I really liked the homeward stretch along the river with it's great views. The mug at the end really nice and something I'll remember the event for a long time to come.
Many thanks for everything, Andy K! |

... | X-GW | GL5MQ2CH | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Mr Crow | I couldn't ask for anything more - sunshine all day and smiling faces at the end. Thank you all for making the effort so worthwhile. Particular mention to my co-organiser Anne who has tolerated this grumpy old man during the preparatory labours. And of course Mrs Schoolfrenz for support, encouragement and looking after you at breakfast. A memorable day - thanks again.

... | X-GW | GL5MQ7EY | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | HelennTribe | Bacon butties is the right way to start the day so after an excellent breakfast and a yummy piece of Ms kitties cake to keep up the energy levels we were eventually on our way. We had a thoroughly enjoyable walk and appreciated the company particularly of Mel Ray, Peter and Celia, Mr and Master Mud and of course Simon at various stages of the walk, but it was lovely to have time in the sun with you all with a well earned drink and more cake at the end. Little ones were very spoilt by the lovely Kitties generosity and were asleep as we left Maldon. Many thanks to Anne and Ray for all their efforts to make this a successful event amd memorable day.

... | X-GW | GL5MQ7Y8 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Kitty!! | We wanted to host an event where everyone would be happy and have a good time. I saw so many smiley faces and happy cachers I think our wish was granted. It was great to see and chat to friends - old and new. Sadly the day had to end. Thank you all for attending and making the day truly memorable and special. Kitty. |
... | X-GW | GL5MQAQP | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | landda | Many, many, thanks to Schoolfrenz and Kitty Cacher for organizing such a fantastic day which I am sure has been enjoyed by all. Loved meeting everyone and look forward to seeing you all again in the not too distant future. |
... | X-GW | GL5MQDP6 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Tangled-T | Thanks to Kitty and Schoolfrenz for a great event, lovely sunshine, lot of brilliant caches, and lots of cachers to talk to, what more could you want. |
... | X-GW | GL5MQJCE | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | PeCeH | Thanks to Schoolfrenz and Kitty for all the trouble they have taken in the organisation of this wonderful fun event. We enjoyed the breakfast, we enjoyed the trail, and we enjoyed the company on the trail. Our geohound also had fun, met many furry people to talk to, and is now VERY sound asleep! |
... | X-GW | GL5MQJEE | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Stones2005 | Just got home after a fantastic day - many thanks to Anne and Ray for all your hard work organising it. Perfect weather and great to meet so many people. Looking forward to the next one! |
... | X-GW | GL5MR68G | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | cbailey8 | Arrived slightly later than intended as GrooveFactor5 and I decided to look for a few caches on the way to the event (Cartoon Hill took longer than it should have). Walked into the Chequers pub and saw lots of familiar faces and the smelt the wonderful aroma of bacon. My three Labradors (Toby, Jasmine and Daisy) were well behaved in the pub apart from eating all of the cat food and Toby trying to help himself to bacon rolls. Collected the paperwork, devoured a bacon roll and washed it down with a cup of coffee. Then our final team member Alanswright arrived and we were now ready to start the event. We waited outside the pub and almost missed our starting time as we were busy fixing a1nnie's bike and eating the wonderful cake made by Kitty. We were assured the walk would take about 3 hours and off we went looking for Goldhanger West - 1.
We returned about 5 hours later, handed in our sheet and returned to the Chequers pub for a well earned pint and a sit down in the garden. The garden was buzzing with cachers sharing their experiences and it was clear that it had been a wonderful day out for all concerned. Enjoyed the prize giving although Jasmine wanted the squeaky ball (maybe next time). Finally, a big thank you to Schoolfrenz (and Mrs Schoolfrenz) and Kitty for a wonderful event as the organization and logistics were truly impressive. |
... | X-GW | GL5MRCAW | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | vanguard3 | It would be unfair to compare today to last year's Old Hall Marshes Meet and Cache Trail. Last year was fantastic: Today was fantastic. Paired with gspleo for the day, we would have loved to be competitive, but no - we still don't understand how guys passed us by; & we still have our sandwiches to eat! However is winning everything? Maybe not --- After gatecrashing a wedding at the church, a few beers at the pub on a glorious afternoon, a chat to many cachers, it was off home. Sometime later, at 7.05pm to be exact, as I laid in an ache removing bath I had a call (doesn't eveyone take their phone for a swim?). It was Jill (happileigh)-- What can you remember about No 20, hanging from a tree? she asked. Not a lot was my reply. But then a concern for a member of Team S-o-S caching group still out there hitting the caches came over me. But no she had a stop at a previous pub (Should have done that too) & was happy to be plodding on. A cheer in the background said the cache was in the bag. Only 3 to go. Are you still there at The Chequers Ray & Anne? there's a couple of cachers on their way in.
Thankyou Anne & Ray for today-love you to bits. XXX |
... | X-GW | GL5MRGWG | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Geocass&Andy750x | Wow! What a brilliant meet. Andy put his foot down so that we arrived early. I think he was worried he'd miss out on his bacon roll. Nothing was missed though and it was simply a brilliant way to start a day of caching. Brilliant to bump into stones2005 at long last as they only live about a quarter of a mile down the road, and we've done loads of their caches, but somehow our paths have never crossed! Also lovely to meet silverhorde who I've electronically spoken to many times but never in person (and thank you for the lovely path tag!) And finally a massive thank you to schoolfrenz and kitty for organising everything. Although we really enjoyed the cache trail, the best part was definitely Kitty's choccie cake. If I ever find Scarecrow's Revenge I will exchange an exact hint for the recipe! |
... | X-GW | GL5MT7K3 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | HappyCabbage | Fantastic! My first ever geocaching trail and it was great. Nice to see some familiar faces from Essex Meet 9, and even nicer to enjoy a yummy bacon roll before the start. Brought Toby, my lab along with me and we had no idea how we'd get on, but I was more interested in learning and having some fun than winning - good plan as it turned out!
Thanks so much to kittycaher and schoolfrenz for setting this up. An amazing amount of work must have gone into this and apart from one, we found the lot, so it shows even a novice can do it. I made some more new friends on the day and they made it even better.
Thanks again - epic! |

Enjoyed meeting everyone on the way around (me and Alibags were doing the circuit backwards and not partaking of the competition as we just wanted to have a nice walk). Thanks for the day, the weather was superb, good to see you got that booked! |

... | X-GW | GL5MVDWJ | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | tyke | Looney Londo and myself got to the finish at about 5:30 with 1 DNF (G17, of course) and 2 envelopes opened. We enjoyed the day, thank you. The second half was the best as we joined up with Silver Horde and, while exchanging stories, tended to wander on beyond the caches and had to backtrack. Thanks again for organising a good day out. But so glad it wasn't the 20 mile version. |
... | X-GW | GL5MWPEA | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | kevanjue | Many thanks to Ray and Anne for organising such a great day out for everyone. It was the perfect day weatherwise ,with a nice sea breeze to counter the hot sunshine. So nice to catch up with everyone and it was apparent that everyone was enjoying themselves. Thanks Anne for the cakes, they were really scrummy! mmmm! |
... | X-GW | GL5MX552 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | gspleo | What a fantastic event. The day started great with sunshine, bacon rolls and coffee. So nice to have the time to swap stories with caching friends old and new. Organisation was brilliant and the course well thought out and interesting with some great locations. Thanks Anne and Ray for arranging this. Can't wait till the next one. A fitting event for find number 1500. #1500 |
... | X-GW | GL5MXC8R | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Wilcox | What a great event, very well organised, great breakfast and cakes, great rhymes and caches, great company and good weather too.
Well done to the organisers this was truly a success and the award ceremony was great too (although i'm not quite sure what the three muggles sitting on the middle picnic table were thinking!).
The chocolate caramel shortcake was a lifesaver by cache 19 i can tell you, it helped give me the energy to make it too the end (well, that and the thought of a nice cold beer).
If next years one is 4 miles longer, i'm going to start training in January.
Great to get to know Alanswright,cbailey8,groovefactor and kevanjue a little better. I was also astonished by gillywigs tales of 1000 plus caches without a GPS! Good to meet you guys too. |
... | X-GW | GL5MXCDQ | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Loony Londo | This was great fun. Tyke had presuaded me to come on this rally and after a 7.oo start we were in the area and then found two caches nefore arriving at the pub. There were loads of cachers there who were very friendly and I was even able to purchase a vegitaran bacon buttie. We set off at 10.16 for a long day's adventure. I will write about in the logs as we found every cache but SEVENTEEEN!!!!
When we could back to the pub we missed the party so we could not say thank you to the oragnisers. I have our completed card with a notr of the two envelopes we opended so I will a=scanned it on Monday and sent it to the organisers.
Thanks again for a great day. |
... | X-GW | GL5MXEJY | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | rallisalli & hawkeye | To Goldhanger at the Chequers pub For drinks and burgers - lovely grub, Came geocachers, all shapes and sizes, Ready to walk for fantastic prizes.
A route in a circle, it was all the talk And fifty-two people set off for the walk. Twenty-six caches in only eight miles The thought of this caused lots of smiles.
At two minute intervals,  groups left the start And at ten o clock it was our turn to depart With clues in verse and clutching our score card We arrived at cache one,  it wasn't hard.
We joined other cachers - we became a group. Going from cache to cache around the loop. Chigborough Lakes were soon to be found Lots of clues, we went round and round!
With Three more caches to add to our sheet We left our friends to rest our feet. A rally round  puzzle cache was next on our list And although we looked hard it had to be missed.
Bother!
back on the route and no-one else around Disaster struck - our instructions could not  be found. So now the panic envelopes we brought into use At least no more answers we had to deduce!
We carried along  from cache to cache Enjoying the views, no need to dash. We watched birds and boats as we walked the sea wall Caches one  to sixteen, we'd collected them all.
And then came number 17..........
Gps in hand the coords looked good And when we arrived we could see where others had stood (actually it looked like a war zone!) On hands and knees we searched in vain A dee en eff,(did not find), we were in pain!
After half an hour we were on our way, To collect the rest of the caches for the day. Back at the Chequers, just about last but definitely not least Our late arrival meant we'd missed the feast!
Bother again! And we'd missed the prize-giving.....!
Refreshed with a drink and a piece of Anne's cake (not everything had been eaten) We recounted our problems at the lake. We hadn't won a prize but what did it matter, We'd had a great day, a noggin and natter.
Finally, we would just like to say, A great big THANK YOU to Anne and Ray For all they have done to give such pleasure To lots of cachers - definitely a day to treasure!
Thanks Kitty Cachers and Schoolfrenz - you done good! |
... | X-GW | GL5MXK4F | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | GrooveFactor5 | TFTE,
Plenty of fellow cachers, excellent weather, what more could you ask for? |
... | X-GW | GL5MYHAB | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | a1nnie | A very big thank you to Ray and Anne for an excellently well organised event. The cakes were truly scrumptious. It was great to chat to everyone before and after the trail; the bacon roll was a great way to start the day. Thank you. The weather was glorious and the company was great. Looking forward to the next one.

... | X-GW | GL5MZ5VA | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Norbergs | Thanks for a great caching event , it was our first one and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!!! This must of taken a long to organise and we appreciated all the effort that went in to it and along with the nice sunny weather made a geart day out. Well doen SF and KC and thanks to our team mate that joined us on the day Jeffery Clan who made us walk quicker than usual |
... | X-GW | GL5N0Z5C | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | chequerdog | Hello my name is Reg (I won the waggiest tail at the meet!!) I am a black Labrador. My humans have allowed me to write the log for the whole event..........what a great honour and let’s hope more geo-hounds get this fabulous opportunity. The day started bright and warm and I was loaded into the car together with all the geocaching bags. We arrived at the Chequers Pub and my humans had bacon butties they smelt wonderful. I had lots of people talk to me in the pub it is great being a Labrador I love all the attention. We were called outside and we were off, strolling towards the bus stop. We caught up with some fellow cachers and found the first cache, I sometimes wonder why humans take so long to find caches I can see they have noses but they don’t seem to use them! We crossed the road and onto footpaths, I love these we walked and walked finding cache after cache and meeting up with lots of wonderful human cachers .......what a brilliant way to spend a Saturday. By the time we reached the sea wall we were on our own but there must be some mistake where is the water? There is only mud and my humans will not let me go in that! Onwards following Windywetmud and son. We met up at Number 17 and all the humans were searching madly in the grass, Helenand brian, Peceh and Hollyncharlie arrived and the grass was flattened but no cache was found so off we went. We continued with Peceh and their little dog Tequila we had a wonderful walk chatting and sniffing (the last bit was Tequila and I). We found all the remaining caches, I had a swim and then back to the pub. Schoolfrenz and Kittycachers met us and took our cards. They put on a brilliant event it made my humans very happy so thanks for everything, I particularly liked the cake as my humans always drop crumbs I don’t know why! We sat down in the pub garden and I had a nice bowl of water! I think my humans had a pint of beer! The prizes were handed out and that is when I won waggiest tail what a great honour...........we are looking forward to the next one! Thank you for a wooftastic day! |
... | X-GW | GL5N27XW | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Dixie Lily1 | What a fantastic day. Couldn't have organised the weather any better - that takes some organising. What a brillient start,excellent venue and bacon butties and coffee, that's how all Saturdays should start. It was great to see so many friendly people and start to put faces to names and almost a pity to leave the pub. Once we were stocked up with cake (thank you Kitty Cacher) we got off to an embarrassing start - thank you Schoolfrenz for coming to our rescue. Once we were away we knew that things could only get better. After a few caches we were gaining on those in front and so decided to team up. We enjoyed the whole walk, however, the nature reserve stuck in our minds as something special. We have to congratulate Schoolfrenz and Kitty Cacher for their ability to find hiding places along the sea wall which couldn't have been easy, and for the variety and quality of the caches. Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable series. |
... | X-GW | GL5N3JZF | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | mel-ray | Another successful event hosted by Ray, Christine and Anne making this again the highlight of our year. Must say, this event out does a Mega event. The unexpected twist and turns at 17 had everyone down on all fours and again Ray (INSP Cluedo) made this mysterious cache unsolved with many tales untold. From the bacon rolls to the prize giving, a special thanks to the pub owners for their hospitality. Special thanks for the whole day we thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to next year. T4TE |
... | X-GW | GL5N85BP | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | stephia4 | Many many Thanks to Schoolfrenz and Kitty for a lovely day. Great locations, great hides and a great bunch of people. Glad we came! (Even if I did leave shattered and collapse on the sofa asleep by 9.30pm haha) Great to see everyone that we met last week once again and enjoed wandering the last 8or9 caches with a big bunch of jolly cachers! TFTC (S) :) |
... | X-GW | GL5N9XN5 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Rob_Anna | Thanks to Schoolfrenz and Kitty for a lovely day glad we came. This was our first event cache and we really enjoyed it, a lasting memory for me will be one of 20 people on hands and knees looking for cache #17 if anyone had passed by what would they have been thinking ! Thanks again and next time we will be looking to improve on our last place. |
... | X-GW | GL5NJWV6 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | mcwomble | #2321 What can I say that hasn't already been said? A fantastic day's caching; a chance to catch up and relax first, mix and mingle en route, enjoy good company, the frustration of the DNF and the competitive edge of "the race". A huge thanks to Ray & Anne, and especially Anne for the lifesaving fruit flapjack at the end! |
... | X-GW | GL5NPR53 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Silver Horde | Thanks for a great day out in Essex. I used to live in Chelmsford until my twenties and drove all around there and Maldon when I first learned to drive but it was Mr SH's first visit to Essex and we both enjoyed our visit. The bacon butties and tea and coffee was very welcome at the start of the event and our dinner at the end was very well deserved!!Although we were sorry not to say farewell to the organisers. We were a bit apprehensive about the rhyming descriptions for the caches instead of coordinates but having been a letterboxer before turning to the dark side of geocaching we coped except for misunderstanding how the numbering was working until we got the hang of it! So glad we ended up doing the best half of the series with Loonie Londo and tyke, four pairs of eyes searching and four people keeping track of where we were and where we were heading next made such a difference. We loved the multi caches in the Nature Reserve, that really slowed us down, there was so much to see including a kingfisher, jays, heron, egrets and best of all a cuckooing cuckoo that flew right over our heads! Amazing!! As we walked along the seawall we saw two of the Thames barges going out which was something I'd hope to see after our visit to the Hythe in Maldon the night before. All in all it was a perfect day for the event and I only wish I could come to the next Trail Launch too. Thanks for all your hard work. Sorry about the delay in logging the Travel Bugs but we had very limited internet access while on holiday, some have already been grabbed! Jane and Simon San Diego CA. |
... | X-GW | GL5NR10K | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Mr Crow | #1213 I think I was there! |
... | X-GW | GL5Q4VA9 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Shirst | Far too early for a Saturday morning, but what a lovely start to the day - delicious bacon rolls and a friendly welcome (from pub and fellow cachers). Bit nervous to begin with, but yummy cake and a point in the right direction and we were off! It was a welcome to return as we whizzed through this series far quicker than our normal speed. It was lovely meeting so many people and massive thanks to Kitty and schoolfrenz as I have long been a fan of their caches and this series was no different. You must have worked so hard putting this all together and we really appreciated it - THANK YOU! |
... | X-GW | GL5V0M57 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Attended | Alibags | Arrived early enough to enjoy tea and bacon butties, followed by cake and to have a chat with everyone.
We did suggest that we didn't want to compete at all, but we were still not allowed to set off til last, so we decided to really not compete and go around anti clockwise. This did give us a chance to meet everybody as they were then all walking towards us rather than away from us.
Beautiful weather and an enjoyable walk, which I really enjoyed. When we got back to the pub we discovered that most people had been back, awards handed out and then they had all gone again, which was a bit disappointing as we were not the last people back by any means. Still those of us who were there had a nice chat before heading home.
Thanks for a nice day out in Essex! |

... | X-OHM10X | GL5MT13E | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 5 | Found it | mick n sandie | Whilst sitting with Mandy we chatted to a couple of twitchers who asked if we were looking for the treasure hunt thingies!

... | X-OHM23X | GL5MT2XC | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 7 | Didn't find it | mick n sandie | Tried several likely places, but couldn't find this one at all. Will be back to do the long one at some point, and will try for this one again. |
... | X-OHM25X | GL5MT48E | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 9 | Found it | mick n sandie | Had a half hearted look for this one, the last of the day, but so many nettles etc we decided to give up and come back in Winter! |
... | X-WHER | GL5NJW8H | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | mcwomble | #2320 Another cache I'd been saving for the 6 in a day challenge. Having stopped and started previously and "lost" the saved results, I was prepared to have to rewalk the majority of the route again. However I turned on the Oregon and it remembered so only a couple of stages left to do and a chance to get to the event early. Any problems with the cache are I think down to my Oregon 450 and me not knowing how to drive it. TFTC |

You are disqualified for sabotaging 17! I know you will be absolutely gutted but the truly wondrous prize (what could be more wondrous than a mug with Kitty and Crow plastered upon it!) will not be yours and you will not be able to drink your morning cuppa staring at Kitty and Crow!
Love Kitty
PS Be warned - you are WANTED by around 40 cachers for causing their only DNFs of the day on a cache of only difficulty level 1.5! |
... | E117 | GL5N10N3 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | Mr Crow | I've upped the difficulty to 4 - is that enough?
I think Scarecrow Rog must be well miffed. In a single day this cache has accumulated 24 (and growing) DNFs. Revenge has a mere 19 over its chequered history.
The Revenge finders at the Goldhanger Meet were a secretive lot, but I have a deal for you. Tell me the concealment strategy of Revenge (I do know now as the attendee yesterday that went home with a broken nose will testify) and I will think about possibly maybe trading a tiny hint of the equivalent for this cache, like its buried three feet underground - plus or minus four feet. OK? |
... | E117 | GL5N2D6D | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | happileigh | Who is The Stig? I think we should be told! He has only found 3 caches- in Budapest-I don't like Budapest- I didn't know I had to punch my bus ticket there and a nasty Inspector fined me 1000 Budapest thingies on the spot. Anyway, I digress- The Stig lives 874.242 miles from Budapest- which brings us to ...........Scarecrow's allotment.......... |

Did a geriatric sprint up the road with Mel. (Need to clarify-I'm the geriatric, Mel is not). No need really, Mel-Ray were 2 minutes ahead already, but fun: It did surprise the wedding party though. I heard our timing was perfect as the previous finishers had waited a while to get a COLD beer. Lovely, lovely day: Wish I could give more than one FAV at I time, but I can't. Just the one from me to say thankyou for-- The organisation The miles of walking/running you did The hours at the PC The reception by Anne & Mrs Crowther The bacon butty The coffee The packs of instructions & cards The cakes The finds The DNFs (yes - even these were fun & meant I will be back). The welcome back. The cacher chat after The prizes & presentations The rest I have failed to mention A great great time. TFTC's #2141. |
... | E122 | GL5N89XF | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Loony Londo | Final one of the trail at 17.30 hours. Found with Tyke and Silver Hoard. TFTC |
... | E201 | GL5N89TB | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Loony Londo | Found with Tyke and Silver Hoard. TFTC |
... | RR004 | GL5NMX1X | RR004 - Totham Tulips | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Absolutely no problem solving this one as we are both very familiar with Tulip Diagrams from our road rallying days in the seventies, which is when we first met Schoolfrenz - then known as 'Crow'. For those of you who don'y know, these tulips were not invented by him - even he is not that old! (sorry Ray!) they originated in the 1950's in Holland on an event called the 'Tulpen Rally. Hope this is not thought of as a spoiler = I just thought other geocachers would be interested.
Needed the marigolds to retrieve this one! SL. TFTC. |
... | RR008 | GL5NMTQT | RR008 - Playing Fields | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | No probs solving this one as familiar with this type of navigation on both road rallies in the seventies ( which is when we met Schoolfrenz) and more layyerly on his Internet Table Top Rallies. Despite it being a glorious Sunday, the Playing Fields were deserted (it was lunchtime) and so our search for GZ, which took longer than it should have, wwas unobserved. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR012 | GL5NMYRP | RR012 - OScillation | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Had fun solving this one - very educational - we would have solved it even quicker if I hadn't made a spelling error which gave us a red 'Incorrect' on Geochecker.com. Slapped wrist!. No probs second time. Parked to the wset of the Travellers' encampment located near the start of the southern end of the permissive pass. There was no-one there as we walked by , nor on our return from finding the cache. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR017 | GL5NP3F3 | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Not sure whether or not I can make any other use of the information gleaned to solve this puzzle but I had fun collating it! Slight embarrassment however as we forgot to add on the amendments and spent too much time looking in the weong place! Eventually we realised our error ( my fault really - I should have used my highlighter) then it was no probs retrieving the cache. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR018 | GL5NP0MW | RR018 - Sheepcoates | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | I am running out of 'easy' puzzles to solve - what am I going to do then? Another educational exercise taking me back to my schooldays(which were a long time ago!). Cache almost exactly where it said would be. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR019X | GL5NP59A | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Another fun puzzle - (they are always fun when you manage to solve them! Can't imagine this sort of thing would have been used on road rallying in the past - no-one would have got to the finish! Not sure we took the right route across the golf course but fortunately there was only one pair of golfers on the course - the rest must have been at the 19th! No problem retrieving the cache, then we returned by a more subtle route to the geovan. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR020 | GL5NP1RX | RR020 - Sains Approach | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | A little help from Schoolfrenz regarding the arithmetic enabled me to finish this puzzle ( Thank you- I was able to get off to bed at a reasonable hour!) Finding the cache was less of a problem. Despite its covering. the cache log was a little damp. but perfectly serviceable. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR021X | GL5NP8C0 | Rallye Runde 21 aka Goat Lodge | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Our final cache of the day and our 800th find! Can't believe we have achieved so many. It's thanks to Schoolfrenz and Ray of mel-ray (two rays of sunshine boom-boom!) that we took up geocaching and we have loved every minute (except recording a DNF). Didn't take long to decipher the code and located GZ after a very pleasant walk. A good way to end the day. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR036X | GL5NKQFA | Rally Round 36 aka Leg-ability 1 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Knew exactly where this cache would be located as we have participated in several of Schoolrenz' 'Pegularity' and 'Legability' events. (If you haven't done one, then do have a go - they are great fun - there's one this July.) However, I did have a bit of a problem selecting the exact numbers for Geochecker to say 'Success!' Schoolfrenz kindly came to my rescue otherwise I don't think I'd have got to bed that night! The anagram for the location was easier than most and we soon had the cache located. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR037X | GL5NMEG8 | Rally Round 37 aka Leg-ability 2 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Another familiar footpath due to our oartcipation in Pegularity and Legability events put on by Schoolfrenz and Mrs Schoolfrenz. (if you haven't done one, you should as they are great fun! The next one is 17th July. Unlike Leg-ability 1 I got the coordinates for this one first time so no need to ask for help. Coords spot on. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR046 | GL5NMRMC | RR046 - Was No Limit | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Although trying to solve Schoolfrenz' caches is time-consuming, it can also be very educational. Thanks For re-awakening my little greay cells. Parked at suggested coordinates and found this one before carrying on to do RR8. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR049 | GL5MZAMW | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | goulbourn | I've spent evenings over the last few weeks gradually solving a few of Schoolfrenz puzzles. Clearly the ravages of time, children and alcohol have ravaged the synapses and at this time, I've only worked out 24 of the 52. We intend to come and clean up a bunch of them at a later date. However in an attempt to "know my enemy" better we walked the Tolleshunt Major Tour this morning. We drove passed "Duck Corner" on the way home, so it was good to find I'd got one of the puzzles right. Quick find once the code had been broken. Thanks for the challenge. |
... | RR246 | GL5NMGDD | RR246 - The Nearest FarAway Place | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Like the plot in the 'The Nearest Far Away Place' - The Novel, the path across the wheat-field was somewhat a mystery, but unlike the absorbing tale, there was no twist at the story's end and the cache was quickly retrieved.SL. TFTC. |
... | RR247 | GL5NKTC1 | RR247 - Panglossian | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Read the book some time ago (long before I got involved in internet table-top rallies and geocaching.....!)Enjoyed the read and working out the soluton to find the cache. The walk was lovely, the peace disturbed only by the swishing sound of barley caught by the wind. The footpath eventually indicated a route through the shoulder-high rape = we opted to go around the edge to GZ which was soon located. Swapped some goodies. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR248 | GL5NKPN8 | RR248 - Schoolfrenz | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Solving this conundrum made me realise I haven't yet read this book. I have a copy but I am spending so much time trying to solve Schoolfrenz' puzzles I don't know when I am go to get to it! The walk to the cache took us first acroos a wheat field where we felt like Moses parting the waves! Didn't take long to locate the cache SL. TFTC. |
... | RR249 | GL5NMPZ8 | RR249 - Thalamorph | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | It was harder to walk to find this one than it was to find the co-ordinates as the ground was uneven and roc-hard. We also suspect that this footpayj only gets walked by Schoolfrenz and his geo-cache solvers! NQF. SL. TFTC. |
... | TMT01 | GL5MZB3V | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | goulbourn | The toddler had already decided he wasn't walking today, but finding the cache was decidely less trouble. Getting the tight log back in again was a challenge :) TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL5MZBRF | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | goulbourn | A quick and easy find. TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5MZC8M | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | goulbourn | Easy find. Managed to extract log without tweezers. Lovely to be the first to write in all these replacement logs. TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5MZCWW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | goulbourn | Nearly walked past this one, but the similarity to the previous one alerted the cache-sense. TFTC. |
... | TMT05 | GL5MZDNA | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | goulbourn | Reiterating that the paths between 4 and 7 are very over grown, and this in particular is difficult to see the correct route. Took the buggy round the edge of the field. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5MZE7K | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | goulbourn | Terrain round here definitely not buggy friendly, but found quickly once at the right spot. TFTC |
... | TMT07 | GL5MZEQ8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | goulbourn | We were getting into the swing of these containers by now, and were glad to see a return to better terrain. TFTC |
... | TMT08 | GL5MY7RH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | goulbourn | Quick find and swapped trackables. Horse free, but lots of bunnies to keep youngest entertained.

... | X-GW | GL5MY69X | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Mr Crow | The trouble with being a cache owner on a series of 26 caches launched simultaneously on a trail day is that you receive a lot of logging emails ... over a 1000 already!
I mustn't complain though because there's some great reading material which will keep me busy at my PC for a few days. I wanted to go out today to prove #17 was there, but instead I've chosen to chill and read logs.
I expect tomorrow the urge will overtake me and an inspect/maintenance tour will be required to keep the series clean for the next batch of visitors.
Don't forget to book out your TB's from the event - all those physically deposited at the start have been re-distributed.
|
... | X-GW | GL5N197K | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Mr Crow | I'll be power-walking the course tomorrow (for the sixth time?) to check the caches. If someone has the inclination or time to do it again, and with the possibility of an owner-inspired FTF on #17, then get in touch and you are welcome to join me. |

After Alibags/my embarrassing DNF on Saturday, I was determined to go back for this one. Found it fairly quickly - I SWEAR we looked here before! But extracting it was another matter. After some cursing and head scratching, I eventually managed to get it out. Good. Another smiley on the map!

LOL here. Cache is now in a more obvious place so downgraded to difficulty of 2.5. When you find it you'll know why it was quite |
... | E117 | GL5NA2M3 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | The Growler | I left Ray here to do his maintenance as needed and met up with him again at #18. Didn't feel right going for a FTF here, and especially as Ray has now made it easier. I'll do this some other time though as my interest is piqued as to the cache type and I expect I'll be back with Essex Angler one day to do the walk again. |
... | E117 | GL5NR65Q | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | mcwomble | #2350 FTF - YES!!!!!!!! "Smeagol's got the precious!! Smeagol's got the precious!!" Complete with little dance but without the fall into the cracks of doom, or in this case the ditch!! I can concur that it is a much easier hide now. Mind you having been told where it was originally hidden, it wasn't a 4 star difficulty more like 14 star difficulty - a most wicked little hide. As for the cache itself, well I wont spoil it but to all those others in the photo I was wrong about what I was looking for on Saturday - not that it would have helped as it would have been hidden underfoot at the time. A wicked little hide none the less and a goodly walk this evening. Unfortunately for me the weather didn't cooperate and my little dance of glee obviously had rain-inducing properties that I was hitherto unaware of. The heavens opened! I was moderately moist by the time I got back to the car only for the rain to cease as soon as I put key in ignition. Perhaps it was my turn to be rain god for the evening. The clouds cleared and there was a rather smashing sunset. Not so much thanks for bringing me back here, more thanks for planting such a wicked little cache that taunted me and drove me back so I could cross it off the list. I hate leaving DNFs!! Thank for dragging me back here, although a FTF can do that to a fellow, and thanks for a sneaky little cache. This entry was edited by mcwomble on Friday, 25 January 2013 at 11:46:31 UTC. |

Solved the puzzle a few weeks ago but left it until I was coming to the lakes for others before finding. Quick find once at GZ. Pottered back to the car park past a few fishermen. Not much fishing going on, to be honest! Thanks for another interesting puzzle. |

I do , I like it caching with Ray. What about caching with Kitty? I like Kitty, she is pretty. What about caching round the lakes? Lakes OK, but loved the CAKES! Did you see A1nnie on her bike? Maybe I could take my trike..... And No 8 the footpath sign? Ugh, No 8 , don't remind!! Then the sea wall- did you like the boats? I like anything that floats.. Number 17- you had to dodge? Yes, and I blame Scarecrow Rog! Getting tired now..too much exercise; Mmm they've all gone home- there won't be a prize..... Do you like it caching with Ray? I do ,I LOVE it caching with Ray!

... | E117 | GL5NHGKE | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Write note | HelennTribe | It was the day after the event at Goldhanger and we had travelled south until we reached the coast. After our exertions the previous day we wanted some relaxation. We found a nearby café and ordered a late breakfast – enjoying again the taste of bacon and the smell of freshly brewed coffee.
We had nearly finished when a small group of men came through the door. They looked around cautiously then were greeted warmly by the proprietor. Three of the men wore berets and hearing the occasional word we concluded that they were all French and had probably arrived on the ferry that had docked about fifteen minutes earlier.
The men and the proprietor settled down at a large table. Their conversation was highly animated but they spoke in whispered voices so what they said could not easily be made out. After a few minutes we got up to settle our bill. Moving closer to the strangers we were able to hear some of the conversation.
“Pourquoi sommes-nous ici?â€
“Dix-sept!â€
“Oui, dix-septieme est le probleme. C’est l’epouvantail!â€
“Vous est ordonne de se venger de l’epouvantailâ€
“Quand partons-nous?â€
“Nous commencons demainâ€
At that point the men became aware of us listening and gave us a fearsome stare. We decided to leave and made for the door without any further delay. As we walked away from the café we looked back to make sure we weren’t being followed.
What we saw then made us think of recent events and we wondered just what we had overheard…….. |

26 May 2011 | X-GW | GL5NQZ4X | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | Kitty!! | Ray and I have both been overwhelmed by all your fantastic logs and copious photos, not just on this event page but throughout the series. As all cache setters know these are what make setting caches worthwhile and make you want to set another. For this reason, and to widen the element of competition throughout the event, we decided we would add prizes for the best log and best photo. There have, however, been so many logs that have made us smile, scream (good!), ROFL and cry with laughter that it has been horrendous limiting the prize to just one log! Similar problem with the photos. You will see from the list at the bottom that we have had to add a few extra categories.
Candidate Best Log(s) There were many mentions of pints, beer, cakes and 17! LOL! > Happileigh almost won as she poetically referred to me as “pretty Kittyâ€. Sadly for Happileigh Schoolfrenz replied to my log with a “I got more mentions. Na Na†email – and I couldn’t have that! > Chequerdog/Reg‘s log – Schoolfrenz said “Wow. It’s the dog’s b*llocks.†High praise indeed! > CBailey8 did some great bespoke logs > Kevanjue also made me smirk at the image of big blokes with tatooe's sitting on plastic chairs plonked on the mud/beach, > Bendos made me howl with his comment about Military PE Instructor walking! Can’t imagine what he meant! (Yes, I know, he visited two days after the event!)
Candidate Best Photo(s) We sadly omitted to take a group photo at the outset – too many were still tucking into bacon butties as the first team set off! The photos of our friends are therefore particularly welcomed. Choosing an overall winner was hard. There were some fantastic, professional quality landscapes, cacher shots, cute dogs, sleepy dogs, cute mini cachers and photos that captured the spirit of the event. In the end we decided on a photo that “said it all†but very much regretted that we couldn’t award several more photo prizes alone. > Silver Horde took some excellent cacher and local interest shots and photos of the cachers bringing up the rear > Cazmockett took some superb scenery photos > Helennbrian – their boat photo is on my desk telling me that I’d rather be caching all day than working for local government and what can we say about the French Frenz Connection!!! > Cassandy – great photos > Cbailey8 – the dogs looked soooo tired!
Whilst we cannot give the amount of prizes we think you all deserve we have found a few more to recognise some necessary circumstances - as you will see from the awards list below.
Overall Best Log(s) rallisalli & hawkeye – who managed bespoke rhymes for every log!
Overall Best Photo Dixy Lily1 for needle in a haystack uploaded to 17 as it best summarises what dominated chat back at the pub and ensuing logs! Those bottoms! Ray is going to post this on the main cache page for 17.
First to Find pin badge Whilst FTF is a reward in its own right, the pandemonium that was 17 requires special recognition – so a badge for McWomble for cracking 17!
Reviewer Award Cassandy for giving us a glowing blog and making me ROFL with the moonlit photo!
Spirit of the Event Happileigh – for cheerfully coming in at 7hrs and 28mins without a reception committee and laughing about it, posting great logs and photos, and best of all a Dr Seuss Poem calling Kitty Pretty!
Cacher Not On The Event Award Scarecrow Rog on the condition that the award is picked up in person at Essex Meet 10 on the 13th July where there will be a special reception committee by all DNFers of 17. In the event that Rog fails to make the award it will be presented to helennbrian for their French Frenz Rog log and photo! If only they had a waggy tailed dog they could so easily have cleaned up every element of the competition. |

28 May 2011 | E101 | GL5P47HK | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Ronb52 | Nice early start to what turned out to be a very fruitful days caching. Had to go to Old Hall Marshes to pick up a camera I had lost several weeks ago so thought I'd start early and tackle the Goldhanger loop beforehand. Nice easy start to get going with. TFTC |
... | E102 | GL5P484C | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | Ronb52 | Tackling this loop today with a 7 am start. Another straightforward find. TFTC |

... | E105 | GL5P4AA8 | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | Ronb52 | This post certainly does look lonely, still I suppose it'll get a few visitors now. Quick find. TFTC |

... | E107X | GL5P4BDE | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Ronb52 | Which tree to go for? That is the question. Luckily I picked the right one. Although I did find myself temporarily on the wrong path and had to retrace my steps. Soon found. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL5P4C8C | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | Ronb52 | This cache was fully exposed so I hid it a little better after signing the log. TFTC |
... | E109 | GL5P4CRB | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | Ronb52 | This took a little while to find, why? I don't know it was so obvious really. I think I had checked the location but missed it. TFTC |
... | E110 | GL5P4DNY | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | Ronb52 | Another one that took me a while to find. Don't know what's wrong with me I keep skipping over the obvious places, I had better engage brain before I go any further. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL5P4EW6 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Ronb52 | This one took ages, muggles everywhere, I started searching then stopped, started again, hold on muggles, stop. All clear, no hang on muggles coming. And so it continued, what are all these people doing out at this time on a Saturday morning? Still got it in the end. TFTC |
... | E111A | GL5P4FE4 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | Ronb52 | This was larger than expected, and it appeared to have two logs? A Nano size and a slightly larger one. Signed both? TFTC |

... | E117 | GL5P4KHX | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | Ronb52 | I know this one had been more difficult before, but this was another very quick find. The cache was actually upside down so it's camo wasn't as effective. Replaced right way up so it's less conspicuous. TFTC |

Just as I approached GZ a car pulled up to ask me for directions, no chance, I've never been here before, although if they'd wanted somewhere in TM I had just done the Wherigo so knew my way around here. Once they had gone the cache was very quickly found. TFTC |
... | X-GW | GL5P0X1T | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | rallisalli & hawkeye | It's really nice to win an award But the great day out was our reward We didn't"t expect to win a prize Thanks very much, 'twas a lovely surprise!
I hadn't intended to write logs in rhyme, It wasn't hard, didn't take much time. I really enjoyed it, hadn't done it before, Now this is the end, there'll be no more! |
... | X-WHER | GL5P4RD9 | Tolleshunt Major 30 mph (Wherigo) | Found it | Ronb52 | Went for a wander all around the roads of Tolleshunt Major. There's not many places that I can say that I've walked every road in town. My second Wherigo and although it took me nowhere I really enjoyed it. I think I went blind for about 10 minutes because I just could't see one of the hydrant signs, then when I crossed the road and looked back there it was. TFTC |

... | E106 | GL5PKR44 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | geotrowel | Found this one straight away, but extracting it was a little more problematic…that's one hell of a magnet! The cap seems to have come off the container, too, hence I was able to retrieve the log without removing the container from its hidey=hole. Couldn't see it anywhere on the ground, so I guess it's been kicked away somewhere.

... | E116 | GL5PKY1W | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | geotrowel | What a day to forget my camera! I had to wait while the farmer was inspecting his field in his landrover. He was taking ages, so I was standing on the sea wall, looking around, when I spotted a bird of prey hovering just over the path, about 50 metres away. Watching this kept me busy for quite a while, then I made a move for the cache. Spotted it immediately, retrieved and signed the log. I turned back to replace it, and a baby adder slithered into the space where the cache should be! Needless to say, as soon as it saw me, it was off! Cracking stuff!

As they walked up the path towards me, I didn't recognise them, but we exchanged hellos and moved on. I couldn't see a gps, so assumed they were just out for a walk. Met them again a bit later, and they were cachers. Can't remember their name, though! It's me age!
Anyway, nice quick find here, so I was soon on my way to the next.

I'll be back for this one!

Anyway, set off and got the first few clues right and it led us to a playground = happy kids!! All clues went really well, didn't get any wrong, found everything we needed to find and then found the cache! J took the ring and we left a sewing kit. C didn't see anything he wanted....I did enter the code but didn't get an unlock code? It just went back to the start? I assumed that was it but then read that I should have been given a code? Anyway, I had fun, I like it round here and now we've got to go swimming because I promised...... We used an iphone and it all went very smoothly (except for the unlock code!) tftc |

... | E117 | GL5QVCG8 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | happileigh | I just had to return and find this one-no wonder we couldn't find it in its previous position, but an easy find where it is now. Hung around for a bit as I'd heard Frenchboy might be visiting with the Butler and a Hamper, but no luck! TFTC! |

I'd hatched a cunning plan that I would cut the walk in half by cutting up the disused railway line; but you can't get through; conservation area; had to go back to footpath near Seawall siding.Saw several Egret here tho. TFTC! |

... | X-GW | GL5QXYB1 | Goldhanger Meet and Cache Trail Launch (West) | Write note | scarecrow rog | Wot's occurin Kittyfrenz ? Doh !! turned up on the 1st instead of 21st Doh !!, no sign of any cachers , no smell of bacon , no easy clue envelope's at strategic points . And worse of all no home made tart's served by young Kitty in a French maids uniform also no mugs at the end with the Crow on to sip my Islay from. B ***** French boy tied up in the stud on the Estate got his date's wrong, incidentally sorry Old Chap about the winner you had that was disqualified , I thought he would love a mars bar pre race.
Well French Boy has now forgiven me and himself and I intend hitting the series in the near future, however I looked at the previous participants and don't like the sound of any of them. Hopefully they all don't live in the village because I don't fancy leaving our cars there for long with that lot in the vicinity.
So Kittyfrenz I presume there will be a tab in place with the head bar person of the pub at the finish for we two to erode.
PS I've never actually met a geocacher before and quite possibly wrongly tar you all with the same brush but I do like a Chap called Geotrowel because he is never mean to me like the rest of all you Premier Folks.
Scarecrow Rog From southern part's
PPS if you see a Bentley and a Aston Martin parked outside the church there nothing to do with we two we are coming by train that day. |

I was half expecting to find you there already. Cache found in Gillywig style though as my GPS ran out of battery about halfway through the walk. That kind of put the kibosh on any further caching that evening. Thanks for the puzzle Ray now back to RR53! TFTC |

Popped in on the CrOw and Mrs Schoolfrenz. A lovely cuppa and chance to admire the new chix. |

I really enjoyed the walk and the caches but the cache page layout does not lend itself to cachers like me that simply download and go, without any preparation, as the hints etc are on a web link rather than on the cache page. Either way it was an enjoyable stroll and I will be back for the last one at some point as well as the church micro up the road. TFTC & the series. |

Many thanks again for your kind comments.
Put May 19, 2012 in your diary. This is the provisional date for the Goldhanger East Event and Trail Launch.
At the same time we are planning to link the Tollesbury Wick, Old Hall Marshes, Goldhanger West and Goldhanger East trails into an Essex 100 series, which will comprise 100+ traditional caches over about 35 miles. Further details will eventually appear at Essex 100 Series
Happy Caching

... | E301 | GL5W2T3B | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | TwoRisky | We are holiday in the Colchester area and as the weather forecast for today looked quite promising we decided to attack the 'Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall Series' caches. As we approached prequel 1 it was rather cloudy but mustn't grumble at least it is dry - fingers crossed for the rest of the walk. Nice easy find. TFTC x PS with reference to the previous log by happileigh - Mrs TwoRisky also has new boots but she doesn't rub goose fat into them. |
... | E302 | GL5W2X64 | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | TwoRisky | NIce easy find, even though we had one eye on the search and the other on the clouds. I notice that the cache owner, Schoolfrenz, has been here today as well - I wonder did our paths cross? We were the Tilley-hatted, rucksack encumbered couple. TFTC x |
... | E303 | GL5W302Y | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | TwoRisky | As we were approaching ground zero a Fathers Day text message came through for Mr TwoRisky so he was too busy trying to find his glasses, the search for cache was therefore left to Mrs TwoRisky: why doesn't he make the font bigger? Neat little hide. TFTC x |
... | E304 | GL5W31X7 | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | TwoRisky | We couldn't see the hall from here - just the lovely views. Nice easy find. TFTC x |
... | E306 | GL5W3QJ9 | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | TwoRisky | This walk has been, so far, a muggle free zone - let's hope I haven't spoken too soon. Nice easy find for Mrs TwoRisky - but we were slightly concerned that the clue may have been on the part of the log that wasn't there. No need to worry, we suddenly remembered it wasn't on the log at all! TFTC x |
... | E309 | GL5W3VA4 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | TwoRisky | On the way to this cache we saw some very inquisitive sheep, I feel sure they thought we were up to something - don't worry though we waited until they had gone before we started our search. Easy find. TFTC x |
... | E310 | GL5W443X | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | TwoRisky | On our way to this cache we were overtaken by two cyclists - strange really because I'm sure there was a sign near cache 2 which stated 'no cycling'?!?!?!? 'I can't find it' said Mr TwoRisky - 'just read the clue properly' said Mrs TwoRisky - bingo! TFTC x |
... | E313 | GL5W47DF | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | TwoRisky | We thought this one was going to be a 'did not find' but just as we were about to give up Mr TwoRisky cried out 'there it is - it's fallen off'. Well Done Mr TwoRisky! TFTC x |
... | E314 | GL5W494F | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | TwoRisky | Half way between 5 and 5A we passed a muggle family having a picnic lunch, which reminded us we really should stop and have our lunch. Nice easy find let's hope a picnic area can be found as quick. TFTC x |
... | E315 | GL5W4B37 | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | TwoRisky | Well just in case you are interested - we have had our lunch - we found a tiny beach made entirly of shells and watched the tide coming in. Mr TwoRisky had this treasure in his hands before Mrs TwoRisky had clambered down to ground zero. Oh no - the sky is getting very very grey. TFTC x |
... | E316 | GL5W4C63 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | TwoRisky | We spent ages at this spot - not searching for the cache, that was an easy find, but putting on our waterproofs - those grey clouds I mentioned before are now depositing their contents onto us! TFTC x |
... | E317 | GL5W4DFV | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | TwoRisky | It's a pity it is raining it would have been nice to stop here a while and take in the views. An easy find but we couldn't find the cap to the cache - we did look in the surrounding area but to na avail. TFTC x |
... | E318 | GL5W4GQH | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | TwoRisky | Just before we reached the cache area we spotted five eggs in the long grass - sadly it looked as though they had been attacked by a predator. As we were replacing the container we spotted muggles in the distance - we must keep our eyes on them. TFTC x |
... | E320 | GL5W4HWW | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | TwoRisky | Why is it that when there are two likely places for the cache to be hidden Mrs TwoRisky always look in the cacheless spot and Mr TwoRisky always finds it! We can see why James liked it here - so do we. TFTC x |
... | E321 | GL5W4JZA | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | TwoRisky | We just followed the geo-track to the cache area and after a short search and signing the log we took the same path out. TFTC x |
... | E322 | GL5W4MA4 | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | TwoRisky | We have hardly seen a soul all day yet at this cache we had to hang around for two couples and a single gent to pass by before we could begin our search - an easy find once the coast was clear. TFTC x |
... | E323 | GL5W4N8X | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | TwoRisky | A well hidden cache which was found quite quickly by Mr TwoRisky while Mrs TwoRisky pretended to make a phone call - well it fooled the muggles! TFTC x |

Goldhanger trail done, so now for some others in the area.
We thought about doing these caches whilst on the trail, however it was too hot for the dogs, so once we had let them have a little rest whilst we had a drink in the pub, we drove back here to get them.
We grabbed a leaflet with a map in which proved very useful, we walked past the first post to start with as we weren't sure what we were looking for though!
Good hide, surprised we didn't notice that fab hidey place on the way round, lol!

Shame that a lot of the water here is all covered in green algae, the dogs were in and out of the ponds and ended up covered and very smelly, lol! Benji will be going straight in the bath when he gets home!
After a bit of a debate over the numbers, we plotted some co-ords and they looked good, so off we went, cache quickly found, but a nice hide.

The last one of the day.
A great hide, liked this one, my favourite of the three, I went in to retrieve it.
We didn't see anyone at all on the walk round here, it's obviously not that well known about, so having the caches in here is good for bringing people here. Thanks for bringing me a place I would never known existed!

This was a quick find as it was a bit exposed and I spotted it as we approached.
We re-hid it better, and then had a debate about which way the footpath went, sign and map said straight across the crops, so that's the way we went!

Another nice quick find.
As Pip says, we suddenly noticed the numbers and thought we had missed some bonus numbers, so whilst I stayed with the dogs, and tried to keep them calm and cool in the shade, he went back to look at the previous cache. After a TAF, the panic was over, we hadn't missed any numbers....so off we went to the next.

We appear to have taken the wrong route to this one.....we carried on through the farm, and up the track, as we letting the dogs have a drink from the lake a man in a 4x4 pulled up and asked us if we were lost, and told us to stick to path, when we reached the main road and saw the FP sign, we realised our mistake, we had ended up on the wrong side of the fence. So make sure you keep an eye out!
A nice quick find, but it did take a bit of retrieving, a very strong magnet on there!
A good hide, liked this one.
After much debate about which way to go next, we carried on our way.

A lovely walk round the fishing lake to this one. It is just a shame that there is lot of dead fish that appear to have been chucked in the hedges by the fisherman, and unfortunately the dogs sniffed them out, and bleeeeergh did they stink, I can still smell it now!

We used a mixture of a Garmin, iPhone and the poems.
Now begins our favourite part of the walk!
The dogs had a paddle in the water.....and mud, whilst we searched.
A good hide.

Really enjoying the walk along here.
This one took us a lot longer than it should have done to find. Found after Pip tried round the otherside. Several muggles around walking dogs, so a little stealth needed.
Hope it has strong magnets on it!

This one had us searching and searching for quite some time. We were on hands and knees examining everything, but still couldn't find anything. In the end Pip TAF, but as the reply came through he found it.....and then he found another!!
A very very sneaky hide/s!
Have we found the original as well as the easier replacement???
We signed both!
There was a bit of a panic for a moment as we couldn't find Benji......after calling and blowing the whistle and nothing, I glanced down into the water and there he was stuck and couldn't get out, bless him! So after he was rescued off we went to the next.

Lots more muggles about now, so stealth needed here. We managed to grab, sign and replace before they got too near and wondered what we were doing.
Nice container.
As Pip says, we were amazed at how quickly the tide came in here, one minute it's mud the next water.
Definately my favourite part of the walk this bit by the water.

I tried this one and couldn't reach, so Pip had to get it, perhaps we approached from the wrong side of the gate.
The end of a throughly enjoyable walk. Lots of variety in hides and the walk....I have to say I enjoyed the bit along the sea the best....on a sunny day like today the views were fantastic, and the dogs had a great time.
I also enjoyed using the poems, it was good fun trying to follow them!

Followed the cacher's trail, and soon spotted a likely place.
Pip looked first and said no not here........first of all I spotted what I thought was a camo bag, but nope, turned out to be a green flannel! I then looked again and then spotted the cache.
A nice secluded spot to sign the log etc. but the muggles standing on the bank must have wondered what on earth we had been doing when we appeared out of there, lol!
Only one more to go now, the end is nigh!

In many respects it reminded me of Numbers Station (http://coord.info/GCYY9Z) and the satisfaction involved in solving it by ear. This puzzle earned a virtual favourite point sometime this afternoon when I tackled stage 2 - a rather brilliant and inventive twist from the SchoolFrenz stable. I doff my cap to Ray for the way he continues to come up with different and ingenious puzzles. The cache earned it's actual favourite point sometime this evening and I was semi-prostrate before the cache retrieving it, made more difficult by the pouring rain and trying to juggle the umbrella. The cows were most intrigued as to what I was up to, either that or it was the umbrella. The pigs were totally non-plussed by the the whole event, but then pigs can be a little blasé about such matters. Thanks for a smashing puzzle and TFTC |
... | TMT01 | GL5W9VYD | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | TwoRisky | We thought this to be a rather unusual place to hide a cache - easy find but needed caching pliers to retrieve the log. TFTC x |
... | TMT02 | GL5W9WR9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | TwoRisky | Well Done to the farmer for leaving such a clear path through his field - around our way you sometimes have to guess where the public footpath is! Relatively eay find. TFTC x |
... | TMT02 | GL5WBCPF | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | mcwomble | #2412 This was a nano last time I found it so I'd come equipped with a spare log just in case. A micro now but still in the same spot, however I had real fun trying to extract the log; it was quite stiff. I'm not sure whether this is thicker paper or whether the log is too long for the container, but even winding it very tightly it only just fit back in the container. Time to call it a night now - just 5 & 6 to finish once the oil seed rape has been harvested. TFTC |
... | TMT03 | GL5W9XN3 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | TwoRisky | This is turning out to be a really peaceful walk, we can see the church in the distance and there is a good variety of trees on the horizon. Out with the geocaching pliers again for this log. TFTC x |
... | TMT03 | GL5WBC3A | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | mcwomble | #2411 No trouble finding this one as I spotted a previous cachers footprints. Trouble rewinding the log back tight enough to go back in the tube but got there eventually. TFTC |
... | TMT04 | GL5W9YBM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | TwoRisky | The crops near to here look as though they have only recently been planted - they are going to need more rain than we have had over the past few months in order to grow. Another easy find. TFTC x |

A bit of a fiddle around looking for this one as it's transmogrified from the micro it was last time. Soon had my mitts on it TFTC |
... | TMT05 | GL5W9Z00 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | TwoRisky | We didn't much like getting to this cache - we couldn't find the public footpath so made our way along the tractor tracks. Once at ground zero the find was much easier than the trek to it. TFTC x |
... | TMT06 | GL5WA7W6 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | TwoRisky | We would imagine that the public footpath to this cache is only ever used by cachers. Clever hide but easily found by Mrs TwoRisky. TFTC x |
... | TMT07 | GL5WA8MF | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | TwoRisky | With reference to our log for cache number 6 - this path is definitely only ever used by cachers. The crop planted was overhanging the path and we almost had to fight our way through. At one point Mr TwoRisky couldn't see Mrs TwoRisky - the crop was taller than her. Easy find for Mr TwoRisky this time. TFTC x |
... | TMT08 | GL5WA9PQ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | TwoRisky | Well that was a much better path and I think we had best put our gloves on for this one. Dropped off World Travel Geocoin which wants to go to the land of Oz. TFTC x |

... | TMT10 | GL5WB2V1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | TwoRisky | Our 1:25k ordnance survey map said there was a path running straight across that field but we couldn't find it so we kept to the edges and soon arrives at ground zero. Mr TwoRisky then almost discarded what turned out to be the cache - I told him he should have gone to specsavers! TFTC x |

... | E110 | GL5X19AE | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | TwoRisky | Mrs TwoRisky was so busy checking the GPS that she somehow managed to fall off the tarmac. Mr TwoRisky heroically saved her fall and just as he was dragging her (and her heavy rucksack) up, an ambulance drove past - how spooky is that? It seems that it isn't her day - she almost got her hand stuck when retrieving this cache from its hidey hole. TFTC x |
... | E111 | GL5X19R6 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | TwoRisky | We met our first muggle of the day at this cache hide - best get the water out and have a drink while he ambles away. A nice easy find. TFTC x |
... | E111A | GL5X1AM6 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | TwoRisky | Picked this one up while we were doing the Goldhanger West series. It was a nice easy find - I bet its harder in the summer! TFTC x |
... | E112 | GL5X1BNT | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | TwoRisky | This turned out to be a quick find - it was made easy by the fact that the pen was lying on the ground. We signed the log and replaced pen and cache back where it lives. TFTC x |
... | E113 | GL5X1FAJ | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | TwoRisky | What a huge campsite! Mr TwoRisky missed this one, but Mrs TwoRisky put her hand on it immediately. We had to wait quite a time to replace it though, there was a muggle in the distance and we didn't want to raise suspicion. TFTC x |
... | E114 | GL5X1GFV | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | TwoRisky | Round and round we went to search out the cache. We then viewed the new lodges from afar. TFTC x |
... | E115 | GL5X33VB | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | TwoRisky | Any easy find for Mrs TwoRisky, although it was only the log she retrieved, Mr TwoRisky managed to get the container whilst she was signing the log. Both put back in place in no time at all. Now we must stop for lunch. TFTC x |
... | E116 | GL5X346N | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | TwoRisky | That's better - we have had lunch, we dropped down off the path and sat looking inland, the clouds are slowly passing by. Oops - back to the matter in hand - caching - we followed the geopath to this one - nobody else would need to go here. Log duly signed and we are on our way again. TFTC x |
... | E117 | GL5X34EB | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | TwoRisky | We have just heard our first cuckoo of the year. I am beginning to feel like Dorothy, except it's not yellow and it's not brick but to the cachers eye it is a path. Neat hide. TFTC x |
... | E118 | GL5X34MC | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | TwoRisky | Nice easy find - can't hang around though - muggles in the distance. TFTC x |
... | E119 | GL5X350M | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | TwoRisky | Before we could retrieve this cache Mr TwoRisky had to perform minor surgery to a wound he sustained at the previous cache - the bush attached him and left a splinter in his finger. An easy find for Mrs TwoRisky - well you can't expect an injured man to search can you? TFTC x |
... | E120 | GL5X363Z | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | TwoRisky | Well this was a heart stopping cache! We went to the spot indicated by the poem and horror we could not find it!!!!! This is a disaster ..... it is possibly our 1000th find ..... we have just got to get it. We searched and searched, we re-read the poem - nothing. This just cannot be. We then read the previous logs on the GPS (only five available) to discover the hiding place had moved. (Mrs TwoRisky had printed off the pdf about four weeks ago in preparation for the holiday - that will teach her for being so organised). We now have no clue but we are not the sort of people to just give up so we searched the area with a fine tooth comb and BINGO - it's our 1000th find! We celebrated this event with a bottle of water and a couple of ginger nuts, we know how to live! TFTC x |
... | E121 | GL5X36QR | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | TwoRisky | We could see a couple of muggles chatting away as we approached this cache, luckily by the time we got there they had gone. Good find for Mr TwoRisky. TFTC x |
... | E122 | GL5X392Q | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | TwoRisky | We couldn't get to ground zero to begin with - there were four muggle women chatting close by - so we went to find the church cache and have a cup of coffee in The Chequers hoping that by the time these tasks had been performed the group would have dispersed. On our second attempt it was an easy find. We have had a really enjoyable and eventful time doing this series of caches; it was fun seeking them out from the poems, thank you so much for setting them. Hopefully we will be able to return to the area to complete the East series when they have been set next year. |
... | E201 | GL5X3767 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | TwoRisky | Well hidden - but easily spotted by the eagle eyed Mrs TwoRisky - now lets see if she can find a stick to retrieve it - ha ha. At long last, a travel bug to move on - we have been on holiday for one week now and this is the first we have seen - unbelievable. TFTC x |
... | RR010 | GL5X39HC | RR010 - 01derful | Found it | TwoRisky | This took a little time to find, but what teamwork - puzzle solved by Mrs TwoRisky cache found by Mr TwoRisky. TFTC x |
... | RR014 | GL5X3AEE | RR014 - Permissive Tree | Found it | TwoRisky | A double whammy for Mrs TwoRisky here - she solved the puzzle and found the cache. Needed geo-pliers to retrieve the log but it was soon signed. TFTC x |
... | RR036X | GL5X3ATD | Rally Round 36 aka Leg-ability 1 | Found it | TwoRisky | What teamwork - puzzle solved by Mrs TwoRisky cache found by Mr TwoRisky. TFTC x |

25 Jun 2011 | E301 | GL5XCEV8 | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | coldrum | A long stretch to the first cache of a very nice series. A quickish find at GZ. TFTC |
... | E302 | GL5XCF8K | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | coldrum | Did some plannning (but not enough!) for this series but I did at least have a paper copy of the route summary which was essential as it happens as I did not realise the hints were not given on the cache pages! The printed hint here was very helpful here and made for a quick find by Peter. TFTC |
... | E303 | GL5XCFD3 | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | coldrum | Another quick find and on to the sea wall where we plan to stop for refreshments. TFTC |
... | E304 | GL5XCFHR | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | coldrum | A sit down, a drink and some food, sign the log and on we go. TFTC |
... | E306 | GL5XCFWY | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | coldrum | A quick find here, but I'd not realised at all that we needed information for the bonus until we reached cache 8!. TFTC |
... | E309 | GL5XCG34 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | coldrum | Soon noticed (how could you miss it) the good view of Bradwell power station from here. A quick find according to the hint. TFTC |
... | E310 | GL5XCGGC | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | coldrum | The unfortunate thing here is that the view does not change a great deal on the way around. Here though we passed a nice group of well grown lambs which may well not be with us for much longer. A quick find though on replacement the cache fell straight through the bag which had a split at the bottom. All nice and dry though. TFTC |
... | E313 | GL5XCHPE | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | coldrum | Down we go, and quick find and up again. TFTC |
... | E314 | GL5XCHV7 | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | coldrum | Down again, another quick find and up again. TFTC |
... | E315 | GL5XCJ03 | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | coldrum | Saw the first other people on route near here. ANother stop for a drink and a bite - it is quite a muggy day. TFTC |
... | E316 | GL5XCJ43 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | coldrum | Cache exactly where it should be. Getting used to these hides now. TFTC |
... | E317 | GL5XCJGR | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | coldrum | A good place for a little rest. The cache is here, but there is no lid, and I couldn't find it anywhere. The log though is all dry thanks to the cover. Read the bonus page here and collected the information....the first we have although Peter remembered one of the others from way back. So we have 2 of 4 pieces of the requireds information. TFTC |
... | E318 | GL5XCJMX | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | coldrum | A familiar hide here. All good. TFTC |
... | E320 | GL5XCJX1 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | coldrum | Another rest. The muggy weather is making us a little less spritly than usual and now the sun is out too. Nice, though hot. TFTC |
... | E321 | GL5XCK2G | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | coldrum | A quick find here and on for the long stretch to the sequel #1. Log is full. TFTC |
... | E322 | GL5XCK6P | Essex 100 - 3/22 - Assignment | Found it | coldrum | A quick find here. There are a few spaces left but the log is suffereing from wear. TFTC |
... | E323 | GL5XCKB5 | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Found it | coldrum | Nice hide, found by Peter quickly. This one could well hvae taken me a while. TFTC |
... | X-TWB | GL5XD0CT | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | coldrum | One bonus clue collected and another phone number vaguely remembered by Peter gave us the last two digits of the easting and no northing. This, and the hint was enough and I approached the possible GZ with fingers crossed, reached down and there it was. What a bonus! Thanks for a good series. We clocked up exactly 8.0 miles though the route took a little longer than expected. |
26 Jun 2011 | CN | GL5XC4A3 | Crow's Nest | Found it | The Avenue Two | The chickens were in fine voice this morning.What a unique cache. Took car TB left pkt tissues TFTC |
... | DC | GL5XEJVR | Dryhen Cackles | Found it | dig 4 fire | I got the co-ordinates for this one some weeks ago, but had to put it off due to sudden inclement weather. As I was in the area again today, I decided to pay it a visit. Only problem was, I forgot to bring the co-ordinates with me. No problem though, parked by the bridge and got them again. Nearly made a boo boo as I mistook I for 1, but thankfully spotted it before setting off. A very nice circular walk to the cache and back. It found with ease as the cords from the camo bag were sticking out. Cache was in very good order, dry and well stocked. Took a 'Little Miss Giggles' keyring and left an enamel badge. Enjoyed this very much & would definitely recommend it. Thanks |

27 Jun 2011 | CM848 | GL5XV395 | Church Micro 848 - All Saints, Great Braxted | Found it | frenchboy | Lovely hidden church - the gate was (as usual) locked as was the church - would have loved to see the interior which would have been cool on this 30c + day. TFTC. |
... | E401 | GL5XRDM3 | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! Replaced cache and log here as magnet was missing. |
... | E401 | GL5YE8AZ | Essex 100 - 4/01 - Pipe | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | It was time to do another series by Ray So off we set on this year’s hottest day The temperature got to thirty-three degrees Which wasn’t helped by the hot sea breeze.
With hats, sun-cream, & water in our pack Off we set from Tollesbury along the track We collected every cache, all twenty five But at the finish we were more dead than alive!
Nevertheless we had a really good time And I’m sorry that no more logs will be in rhyme. But the heat of the day meant total fade of the brain But next time I should be back on form again.

... | E403 | GL5XRDWQ | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! Surprised cache still OK as staircase has been weed-proofed. Replaced log. |
... | E403 | GL5YE8YQ | Essex 100 - 4/03 - Metallica | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Passed by Schoolfrenz doing a maintenance check on this series. He was soon just a speck on the horizon. Hadn't yet got to 10am and it was already hot.Signed the nice new log. TFTC. |
... | E407 | GL5XRG6M | Essex 100 - 4/07 - Conservation | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! Replaced damp log. |
... | E407 | GL5YE9WZ | Essex 100 - 4/07 - Conservation | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Our brain/hand coordination was still not functioning properly as after we replaced the cache, we realised that neither of us had signed the log so we had to start again! We had remembered to get the letter d though! TFTC. |
... | E408 | GL5XRGBX | Essex 100 - 4/08 - Stilish | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E408 | GL5YEA5A | Essex 100 - 4/08 - Stilish | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | As we carried along the trail we began to realise just how hot it was becoming. Even the onshore breeze was hot and there was no shade anywhere. However, things were looking up as we were getting better organised and did everything in the right order! SL. TFTC |
... | E409 | GL5XRGEP | Essex 100 - 4/09 - Fenced | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E409 | GL5YEAP1 | Essex 100 - 4/09 - Fenced | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Despite the heat, we were making good progress now, though we could no longer see Schoolfrenz on the path ahead of us. (How does he walk so quickly?) This was another nice easy find. SL. TFTC. |
... | E411 | GL5XRJ54 | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E411 | GL5YEFW4 | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Another person born in the same year as me gave us another clue for subsequent caches. Very sobering. Still no respite from the sun, but another cache to add to the tally and we were back to the route cross-over to Maxi 11. SL. TFTC. |
... | E413 | GL5XRHQT | Essex 100 - 4/13 - Cob | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E413 | GL5YEEP0 | Essex 100 - 4/13 - Cob | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | All along the walk we had been watching myriads of butterflies, none of which would stay still long enough to let us identify them - not that we are experts on butterflies!. However one did land briefly on our notes and I think it was a small Copper. Another nice quick find. SL.TFTC. |
... | E414 | GL5XRHNY | Essex 100 - 4/14 - Virley | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E414 | GL5YEDXC | Essex 100 - 4/14 - Virley | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Passed an RSPB warden on Little Tern watch here. Notices about not landing on the shore are beiong ignored by stupid people, and they are disturbing the breeding programme. Apparantly, Little Terns are in decline. No probs locating the cache. SL. TFTC. |

... | E416 | GL5YECY6 | Essex 100 - 4/16 - Quarters | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The notice on the bank requested us to descend to the track alongside so as not to disturb the wildlife along this part of the Salcott Channel. We promptly caused two ducks on Pennyhole Fleet to fly off in alarm! In the lee of the bank it was even hotter so we decided not to take up the option to extend our walk.....! SL. TFTC. |
... | E418 | GL5XRGZ1 | Essex 100 - 4/18 - Channel | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E418 | GL5YEC6W | Essex 100 - 4/18 - Channel | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Beginning to think that maybe doing the whole of this Series on one VERY HOT day was a bit ambitious! But we were committed now. Stopped briefly to watch a boat ahuling up pots - mussels perhaps? Cache soon found and on to the next. TFTC. |

The reeds were obviously full of warblers but we couldn't see a single one. Lucky them, at least they had shade. Found the cache with no problems. SL. TFTC. |
... | E420 | GL5XRGV9 | Essex 100 - 4/20 - Saltings | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. |
... | E420 | GL5YEBMT | Essex 100 - 4/20 - Saltings | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Found myself singing 'Mad Dogs and Engllishmen (including us and Schoolfrenz) go out in the midday sun'. I think we must definitely be mad to be out in thirty three degrees. Glad I wasn't playing tennis at Wimbledon (not that I can play tennis!). SL. TFTC |
... | E422 | GL5XRJH7 | Essex 100 - 4/22 - Rung | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! New cache and log placed here. Previous micro probably went missing when staircase was recently weed-proofed. |
... | E422 | GL5YEGQB | Essex 100 - 4/22 - Rung | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Pleased that Schoolfrenz had preceded us or we might have had to record a DNF here - but we didn't! Signed the nice new log. TFTC. |

... | E424 | GL5YEQQ2 | Essex 100 - 4/24 - Arrow | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Don't remember much about this one as I lay down for a rest while Hawkeye sussed GZ, He soon had the cache located, log signed and and we set wearily off to the final Mini Series cache before going for the three bomuses. It was still VERY HOT! TFTC. |
... | X-OHM02X | GL5XRK03 | Old Hall Marshes - Bonus' Bonus | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Full maintenance trip crazily undertaken in 33 degrees of oppressive heat! All OK here. Left Schoolfrenz collectable PathTag. |
... | X-OHM02X | GL5YEW8X | Old Hall Marshes - Bonus' Bonus | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | We were really tired after such a hot day And despite a helpful hint from Schoolfrenz Ray We took a wrong turn but then found the right track Located the cache, signed the log and headed back.
Back at the car we were grateful for a seat Where hawkeye found a huge blister on one of his feet. Then what next? Well what do you think? Off to the pub for a very large drink!!
Many thanks Schoolfrenz, you set us a challenge, the weather added to that but we eventually got there. We’ll no doubt be back for more! |

... | X-OHM10X | GL5YEB9H | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 5 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Collected all the info on route and noticed that Mandy had been born in the same year as me (rallisalli). Made me realise how lucky we both are to be healthy and enjoying walking in the countryside. Sat on Mandy's bench and had some biccies & a drink before arriving at the cache. Thought we replaced the cache properly but reading Schoolfrenz' log the inference is that we weree obviously not doing our job properly! Slapped wrist! Sorry! TFTC |

... | X-OHM12X | GL5YEF99 | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 9 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The sun was searingly hot and I was really struggling in the heat, but at least we were on the homeward stretch. Passed a muggle with a Tesco shopping bag as we approached the cache - didin't look like a serious walker or a birder so goodness knows what we was doing in the middle of nowhere!Another easy find after caclculating the coordinates - you do like to make cachers work don't you Schoolfrenz!

Still had plenty of water though. Left a smiley man here as not much swag - and to celebrate the fact that we were almost halfway round our walk.SL. TFTC. |

Tried to locate the cache but neither of us could focus so we sat down for half an hour to recuperate. I phoned Schoolfrenz who obviously recognised our patheyic state and was kind enough to point us in the right direction. He also told us how hot it had been throughout the day!. Finding the cache gave us a lift - we caclculated the next cache co-ordinates and set off at a better pace than of late. TNLN. SL. TFTC. |

... | RR055 | GL5YCC43 | RR055 - 25? | Found it | mcwomble | #2421 FTF The solution is one of breath taking simplicity and ingenuity, such that you'll kick yourself when you spot it. The hard part is spotting it. The anagrams are tricky, very tricky and the puzzle one is absolutely essential. Crack that one and you're on your way. A clever little puzzle and most worthy of another favourite point. TFTC and the challenge. |
... | TMT05 | GL5YCDH4 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | mcwomble | #2423 The turning point a simple there and back again walk tonight before the rains came. I say simple, a misplaced step on uneven ground resulted in a calf strain and a long limp back to the car. Who said caching was good for you??
Took the GC for travels to pastures new. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL5YCD5W | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | mcwomble | #2422 The field of rapeseed is still waiting to be harvested but at least tonight it was dry so a wander off to revisit TMT 6 & 5 having first grabbed them as part of the Tolleshunt Bell series. A quick find - thanks for bringing me back here. TFTC |
... | X-TWB | GL5YAKM7 | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | The Three Dobbers | I'm glad I managed to find this as the two DNF's are bugging me! I've had a great day, thanks. Was really pleased to get this one. Right......now to get the kids from school....... |

... | RR055 | GL5YH28Q | RR055 - 25? | Found it | gillywig | Oh so close. I(Gr) had grasped the essence, not quite realised what was required and the put it on the 'shelf' so to speak. Congratulations to mcwomble. 2nd to the RR maestro is ok At 1.86m I satisfied the criteria and we happily signed the log. A great puzzle right up our street. I agree the puzzle anagram is the key but we only cracked it after suspecting we were on the right lines. TFTC. We echo "another fantastic cache from the schoolfrenz stable" It has to be a favourite. |
... | RR056X | GL5YHETT | RR056 - NiJE | Found it | mcwomble | #2425 FTF A late change of plans, meant I had the chance to find this one tonight, having finally decrypted it this lunchtime. Having solved the anagrams I knew what to do, but the decryption itself continued to elude me, having tried increasingly more bizarre combinations of the clues on offer. The problem turned out to be a missing pair of brackets in the decryption algorithm and once fixed the solution rolled out nicely. An interesting start to the walk, where I definitely felt like I was trespassing but the little yellow arrows gave assurance I was OK. A very neat little hide at the end of it. Needless to say another favourite point - TFTC and for the challenge. |
... | RR057X | GL5YH49K | RR057 - Phoney | Found it | gillywig | Two RR's in one day! Being rather deaf we were pitched in at the deep end. Despite wave pattern analysis we couldn't hear what was necessary. So the only course of action was the "who needs co-ords approach". Once we'd spotted the pigs the rest was a ... walk in the "farmyard"!. We were escorted to gz by three amazingly beautiful inquisitve horses, which although a little scary at first protected us from the bull! SL took pathtag left animal stickers TFTC. |

03 Jul 2011 | E101 | GL5YZ20B | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | DizzyPair | We are in the area from Dorset for an overnight stay so decided we would do this series.
The man-eating brambles are still there and did a good job of chewing on Mr DP's arm as he tried to retrieve the cache. Not sure which of them came off worse.
TFTC |
... | E101 | GL5Z289V | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Catalina clan | Off to a good start. The brambles are not friendly! TFTC! |
... | E102 | GL5YZ3QE | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | DizzyPair | As we walked up the road we could see something at the side of the road, it turned out to be two mattresses dumped at the roadside!!!
Cache was neatly hidden but is not secured to anything, should it be?
The lack of footpath across the next field should be reported to your local PROW Officer as the sign clearly states which way it goes but he has planted his crop across the path.
TFTC |
... | E102 | GL5Z2AK8 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | Catalina clan | Nice easy find. On a day out to do these caches on a lovely day. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL5YZ5EK | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | DizzyPair | A short stroll across the field and we soon spotted a post with a yellow footpath marker. Then the path was much clearer and we soon got to the place of the cache. As we're a bit Dizzy, I forgot to download any hints for this series so we went along blind and only a couple of times did we look at the old logs for some help. An easy find here. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL5Z2BTC | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | Catalina clan | The youngest of the clan found this one. TFTC |
... | E104 | GL5YZ60Z | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | DizzyPair | We fumbled about in the greenery for a little bit, then spotted the cachers trail and found the cache. But not before I whacked my head! TFTC |
... | E104 | GL5Z2DGC | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | Catalina clan | Lots of nettles about! Good tree for a hide! TFTC |
... | E105 | GL5YZ7HB | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | DizzyPair | As we got close to the cache, 2 dogs were in the next field and they started barking at us. We kept the hedge between them and us and when they went quiet we sneaked a look and they had disappeared and there was no sign of any muggles either. So we then found the cache at, as usual on this series, dead on coordinates. TFTC |

... | E108X | GL5Z2F46 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | DizzyPair | We had this whole area to ourselves and were surprised not to have seen anyone else. There were a few ducks around but all very peaceful.
There was a family of earwigs living under the cache but none inside.

... | E111A | GL5Z9H99 | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | DizzyPair | We were up from Dorset after completing a bit of business we decided to do some caches.
Lots of people enjoying this path today but luckily at this spot it was muggle free. Good job too as it took us a lot longer than it should have to find this cache.

... | E120 | GL5Z9QK1 | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | DizzyPair | There was a muggle and his dog playing in the water so we kept as low a profile as we could here. Took us absolutely ages to find this one, we don't have any hints so couldn't even use that to help us. Eventually found it just as we were about to give it.

... | E121 | GL5Z9R93 | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | DizzyPair | We passed by the boat club, which looks to be a very nice place and then soon arrived at the cache, which was found quickly. A very nice container. TFTC |

... | E122 | GL5Z9V9J | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | DizzyPair | Our last one, and the end to a very nice Series. This is our first visit to Essex, and we are very pleased to say that the people here are much more friendly than those that we often meet whilst out walking. Just about every person we saw passed the time of day. It was really nice. The scenery is superb too. TFTC and a well earned favorite. |

We can see the Church now so know that we are almost back to our start point.

07 Jul 2011 | E117 | GL5ZWB4A | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | The Growler | Got this one just before the heavens opened - I got soaked! |
... | E424 | GL601B1X | Essex 100 - 4/24 - Arrow | Found it | mcwomble | #2437 As I was in the area and the weather was still nice, time to polish off a few more missed Schoolfrenz caches.
Having rushed straight out for the previous cache, I was beginning to get the munchies now. TFTC |
... | RR003X | GL5ZWB95 | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | The Growler | Not sure how Geochecker would work without the coordinates for te start of te footpath so plotted via Google Earth and then just went for it. TFTC |
... | RR004 | GL5ZWBAV | RR004 - Totham Tulips | Found it | The Growler | Not sure how Geochecker would work without the coordinates for te start of te footpath so plotted via Google Earth and then just went for it. This was a good hide that I was very pleased to find. TFTC |
... | RR049 | GL5ZWBV9 | RR049 - Duck Corner | Found it | The Growler | I recognised this photo as I drove past today. A nice pull-in closeby so thought I'd be quackers not to have a quick peek. I wasn't disappointed. TFTC |
... | RR058 | GL601AVY | RR058 - Little Weeeeeeed | Found it | mcwomble | #2436 FTF The curious case of solving the puzzle backwards! Spotted this one coming live and threw a few of the usual decryption techniques at it with the expected lack of success. With Crow in post-Reprise mode, I expected some type of revenge on the puzzle front. The encrypted message was triggering a little bell in the back of my mind, but nothing came immediately to mind. The following morning and inspiration for a cracking puzzle idea came to me in the shower (no singing this morning - still recovering from recent dentistry). Off to the ideas notebook to jot it down and a subsequent perusal of ideas gone by. Turned a page and out popped BHOT = ????? (well that would be telling) Yippee - cache solved, unlike the anagrams! (eeek!) Onwards to the cache this evening and a rather pleasant little walk - with all the recent rain the crops are ripening nicely. A bit of an Indiana Jones moment recovering the cache container as the site seemingly boiled over with creepy crawlies! A most unusual cache container, who'd have thought they would make such great caches - certainly not what I was expecting. Thanks for another fun puzzle and thanks for the cache. Für Ray. Leid dass ich das rätsel gelöst, so schnell . ein Fall von großer Geister denken gleich. Falls es Sie tröstet, Rallye Runde drei und fünfzig ist weiterhin schwierig.

... | X-OHM23X | GL601BA6 | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 7 | Found it | mcwomble | #2438 Returning to the site of a previous DNF and yet again I made a right hash of this one again. Of course it didn't help that I'd misplaced the calculated coordinates and was searching by clue alone. Eventually found in a place I could have sworn I'd looked last time. Relief at the find and now the serious munchies! TFTC |
... | X-OHM25X | GL601C9M | Old Hall Marshes - Mini 9 | Found it | mcwomble | #2439 Retraced my steps and onwards to a fresh path. Very curious resin deposits on what looked like old fruit trees and my gps started getting a little spaced out with the tree cover. I must have walked past the cache several times trying to get satellite lock. All the while I must have appeared to be a walking "all you can eat" buffet for the local mozzie population. Eventually found and a tricky little extract from its hiding place.
With that I've eventually completed the Old Hall Marsh circuit and probably the current record for the slowest time of 407 days and a slack handful of hours. Yayy me!!
Belated thanks for the series and with fond memories of a great day out. TFTC |

Beware though if you are approaching this cache from the East, some of the boards are starting to rot and one broke underfoot - it would be very easy to break an ankle, so take care. Nothing swapped as I was on my own TFTC. |

Couldn't do anything about it this morning as had a new client in the office. But then an early lunch... and so much traffic. Arrived at GZ after a pleasant short stroll and pleased to find an empty logbook. On the way back to the car found three long peacock feathers - the little ones will take them to playschool for the nature box - then three of the live peacocks hove into view. Driving off along the country road, a muncjac deer suddenly appeared and crossed the road in front followed closely by its baby - about 6" high and a 12" long. All in all a very enjoyable lunchtime.

... | RR059 | GL6181G8 | RR059 - Crow-mosomes | Found it | mcwomble | #2442 Oooh a very clever little puzzle - I like this a lot.
Now, if only I'd gone for this in the morning, then I'd have been on for a schoolfrenz hat-trick! A very pleasant stroll this evening despite the weather which couldn't make it's mind up. To rain or not to rain? Or would a light drizzle be sufficient for the time being. HelennBrian's three peacocks of the morning had become four this evening and as I approached with big blue umbrella the lead peacock was in two minds as to whether to display or not, but instead all four darted round the corner and up to the reservoir. A quick find in the anticipated location. TFTC

Addendum
It was Schoolfrenz who told us about geocaching last year So it seemed appropriate to log our 1000th cache here. We have found all sorts of caches some easy some hard And as we have progressed I have emulated the bard........ (0kay - I admit it……..not the best analogy!)
Solving puzzle caches - the challenge is great Solved this one some time ago, can't remember the date. For us our cache total is an amazing feat And later today we'll share our tales at the Essex Meet!
The walk to the cache was on a grey day The find was easy and we shouted 'Hooray!' We were really pleased and the log was soon signed, Then out came the iPad to log the find! (The short bit a the top!)
Thanks Schoolfrenz and kitty Cachers - this cache is a definite favourite!

14 Jul 2011 | RR053X | GL65K50A | RR053 - Totham Plains | Found it | mcwomble | #2447 FTF I'd been savouring the thought of this one being my 50th FTF on a SchoolFrenz cache, but I'd mis-counted and forgotten Goldhanger West#17 the joint venture with Kitty. This one stumped me for absolutely ages and my seemingly logical theories served only to dig me deeper and deeper into the mire. Of course it didn't help as Schoolfrenz comments of "It's easy!" and "You'll kick yourself when you crack it!" brought back haunting memories of RR35. Then came a catch up with Kitty Cacher at the meet last night and a slight hint which sent me off on the right track. Threw the new idea at the puzzle and out popped at solution shortly followed by a brief 5 mins of intense self-kicking activity. A revisit to Little Totham and with a laissez-faire "this will be an easy find, wont fire up the GPS" I set off to the cache. Ten minutes later I'm back at the car firing up the GPS and I had been looking in the right place after all but the cache was elusive. Even put my hand down a rather deep hole all the while thinking "Please don't let there be a snake down here" - well it is heath land after all. Fifteen more patient minutes and the cache was found lurking behind a curtain of cobwebs - yes it's been there unfound that long! Thanks for the puzzle, the challenge and the cache. I guess this is my 50th Schoolfrenz exclusive FTF! |

... | RR028X | GL61K3C4 | RR028 - Owl | Found it | Stones2005 | 2062 Solved this a long time ago so can't remember how easy or difficult I found it. Today I parked up and as I was walking to the cache site all the gorse bushes were clicking - weird (I assume it was some kind of insect in them and not the bushes themselves!). Cache found without hint as I had not worked that out but an easy find anyway. TFTC |

... | RR062X | GL61K5A2 | RR062 - Basic Arithmetic | Write note | Stones2005 | I was very pleased with myself yesterday for working this one out, so this cache was the reason I came this way today. However I got scared off at GZ I parked up a little way away and walked to GZ but just as I got there a man in a truck drove past, turned round next to where I had parked, drove back to me and said "What are you doing, are you looking for something? I live in the next house along". After that I didn't want to stay and look for a cache incase he was spying on me - sometimes us women on our own feel a bit vulnerable! Will come back with backup sometime. |

... | RR010 | GL6291Z8 | RR010 - 01derful | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Didn't take too long to solve this one. Trouble is, I am now running out of the easier RR puzzle caches to solve. Never mind, at least this is another one to notch up as a find. Parking was interesting as there wasn't much space - was tempted to ask the chap washing his car nearby if he'd do ours as well, but thought better of it! Found the start of the footath and was quite surprised when it opened out to a path through an enormous wheat field. Hawkeye spotted this one straight away but needed my nimbler fingers to assist retrieval.TFTC. |
... | RR028X | GL628Z8K | RR028 - Owl | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Recognised this puzzle straight away (though I did work out the anagram as well) as I had come across it on last year's Table Top Rallies run by Schoolfrenz/Crow for mainly ageing retired rally drivers/navigators like us ( and others ) Really chuffed that the Geochecker said yes first time! Nice little walk to the cache before the rain set in. TFTC> |
... | RR033X | GL62ZC8M | RR033 - Quite Path-etic | Found it | We do checks and cache | This was a very good variation of a theme that we have seen used in a puzzle a number of times. Now we sort of attempted to look for this cache last summer but soon realised that we had mixed up the parking with another in the RR series. We also skipped it on our last visit in may as the distance a few metres too far. So today under time constraint we decided to collect having sorted out a parking spot that was between c'n'd and yomp. Having decoded the hint, a challenge in itself, this meant the search could be concentrated in a confined area. Within a minute MrP had located the cache. |
... | RR035 | GL62ZKY8 | RR035 - Board Game 1 | Found it | We do checks and cache | We had no idea what this was about when it came out, as our customary staring at the screen until something dawns on you, didn't work. So we asked for a hint, which was given. We got half way, then got stuck again. You can tell this is not our sort of thing. Eventually having got the gist of what we were supposed to do, we did it, badly. Lots of cussing later we finally got the coords. It only took a few months. Finding the cache was somewhat easier, combined with one other, we collected before the rain. SL TFTC |
... | RR041 | GL62ZMK7 | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | We do checks and cache | Solved a little while back and added to To collect pile, we found this one after leaving Ray and Christine superb leg-ability day. Cache was found easily and log signed. TFTC |
... | RR042 | GL62ZBVR | RR042 - Grandpa Crow | Found it | We do checks and cache | Straightforward enough puzzle once the correct source had been located and then apply some basic rules to get the real numbers.
First cache of our weekend in Essex and Kent. With rain in the air and the deadline to a nearby meeting looming it was a brisk walk along to gz where we quickly located the object concealing the cache. |
... | RR047 | GL6294F1 | RR047 - Lake View | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | The Table Top Rallies I attempted last year have helped me solve several RR puzzle caches - this one was another example. Solved it fairly quickly and was confident when I pressed the submit button on the Schoolfrenz GZ Checker. Really pleased to have solved another Schoolfrenz Puzzle cache, but the main problem now is that he's producing them faster than I can solve them ( by miles!) No probs though as I really enjoy ( mostly) trying to find the answers.
Took us longer than it should to find and with more nettle stings than it should before Hawkeye (again) spotted it. Ah well, that's what you call teamwork!. TFTC. |
... | RR052X | GL62ZCMY | RR052 - Keep Smiling | Found it | We do checks and cache | MrsP cracked the puzzle but couldn't get anything sensible out of the code. A word with Ray when we were last in the area and he indicated that we were correct but had god something out of kilter. Immediatley MrP knew hat this nudge went and on our return from that caching trip had a checked set of number in no time. Another fine puzzle that has a couple of kinks to throw you. A bit of a trek to gz and with the rain holding off a dry walk through the sadly diminished crop to gz, which can be spotted from quite a distance. |
... | RR057X | GL62ZP4E | RR057 - Phoney | Found it | We do checks and cache | Well, what can we say. There's two ways of solving this one. We did both and came up with two correct answers but one of them was wrong!. Clever puzzle and amusing outcome. Cache was found easily and log signed. TFTC |
... | RR062X | GL62ZNRJ | RR062 - Basic Arithmetic | Found it | We do checks and cache | When this one came out we looked and looked and looked. There seemed to be a an insurmountable hurdle, we couldn't get past. One word at an event and it all fell into place, how had we missed that, we were on the right track all along, but had veered off into the bushes. A new look at the numbers and it was solved in about a minute. Finding the little blighter was a mission. Parked VERY close by and searched for what seemed like ages. Almost at the point of giving up and we found it, well disguised. Thanks for an interesting puzzle. |
... | RR063 | GL62ZNXX | RR063 - Off Set | Found it | We do checks and cache | Solved just before travelling down to Essex, we added this one to our list of ones to pick up. A nice easy puzzle from Ray for a change and an easy find too. SL TFTC |

... | RR064X | GL6288VM | Rally Round 64 aka Leg-ability 3 | Found it | gillywig | A diversion from the main event. Joining forces with rallisalli and hawkeye, we decided to avoid the mud and return this way. Having cracked the anagramatic clue we should have found this sooner. No worries as I had 15 mins in hand! SL and returned to chez crow. TFTC and thanks for the company. |
... | RR064X | GL629E7C | Rally Round 64 aka Leg-ability 3 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Reading about our experiences today at Rally Round 65 will save me writing as much here! We had absconded from the Schoolfrenz Legability time trial to add another RR Puzzle cache to our tally. Despite having teamed up with Gillywig, as logged below, this took us longer than it should to find (Annoying as I'd managed to solve the anagrams without resorting to my usual letters-on-bits-of-paper technique!) Eventually Gillywig spotted it and we all signed beneath the names of other cachers who were participating in the day's activities. They had more sensibly chosen the clean(er) route and had long since returned to base and consumed most of the cake beefore we arrived! ( We still got some though, and very nice it was too!) A Favourite rating here too as we had so much fun. Thanks for a great day, and for the cache. |

... | RR065X | GL629931 | Rally Round 65 aka Leg-ability 4 | Found it | rallisalli & hawkeye | Take the Red Route he said, it's more scenic - a bit muddy maybe but you'll be alright as you've got boots. How long do you think it will yake you? he said About 35 minutes said I, and then he said there was a geocache to find on the way as well as collecting the two code boards for the time trial..... ( As part of dschoolfrenz' Legability events which have very little relationship to caching other than you walk and get wetand muddy!
Back to the mud..... well by the time we had skated our way to the cache I had doubled my weight with mud! Gillywig had overtaken us meanwhile, (having categorically stated that they don't do walking over 3 mmph), and was claiming FTF as we arrived! As stated below, I was volunteered to re-roll the log and replace it back into its container - well, all I can say is, 'Good Luck' to the next cacher who tries to remove it....!
Back to the task in hand we collectively decided that it would be more fun to abandon the time trial and go and get the other new RR cache on the Legability blue route which was mainly tarmac and this is what we did making us 25 minutes OTL!.
If you are reading this, and haven't a clue what I am talking about then please contact Schoolfrenz who will explain about Legability and hopefully confirm that I am not totally mad! We had a great day so have added it to our Favourites list- TFTC! |

... | RR065X | GL65KA6R | Rally Round 65 aka Leg-ability 4 | Found it | mcwomble | #2450 In hindsight I should have opted for the longer Leg-ability challenge rather than the shorter but muddier one. Essex excels at clay and I seemingly transferred several tons of it from one side of the field to the other - well it felt that way at the time - I was wet and feeling sorry for myself having realised I had my proper hiking boots in the boot of the car and I should have been wearing them rather than my summer walking shoes. Ah well another tale to tell at future meets! TFTC and the smashing day of Leg-ability challenges. |
... | RR220 | GL630270 | RR220 - Wobderful | Found it | We do checks and cache | Solved this one a while back and added it to our list of puzzles to collect. Lucly this one was close to our overnight stop. The route to the cache was wet and we had to choose a different route in the end. But eventually the cache was found and the log signed. A good puzzle, Thanks |
18 Jul 2011 | RR027X | GL62GQWY | RR027 - Beetle | Found it | the_fullers | The wife was able to solve this and RR28 recently. An easy find very close to tree that we had enjoyed whilst on our first cache here TNLN. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR028X | GL62GQ5P | RR028 - Owl | Found it | the_fullers | The wife was able to solve this and RR27 recently. Got close to GZ, after negotiating an area with cows then realised we were in the wrong place Simple correction and we were at GZ for an easy find. The funny thing is this is somewhere we pointed out as a great place for a hide TNLN. SL. TFTC. |

20 Jul 2011 | E411 | GL62TB2W | Essex 100 - 4/11 - McClure | Found it | denanddave | found ok, no camoflage tape left on micro cylinder ,covered up with grass etc. TFTC |
... | SA | GL63JJNQ | Steve and Angie | Found it | The Growler | I was on a mission to drop off a TB here and as te picture shows, MISSION SUCCESSFUL. No time to see Steve and Angie unfortunately. |
22 Jul 2011 | CN | GL6386GJ | Crow's Nest | Found it | julietr4 | Fantastic cache! So wonderful to see all the different types of cache but this is the biggest and best so far. Took Mini Rockets and left electronic sudoku game and trolley token. TFTC |
... | CNB | GL640ZJZ | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Walked past - all OK |
... | RR015 | GL6389CN | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | the_fullers | This puzzle has been completed for ages, just needed the time to locate the cache Tonight was a good night. We parked somewhere nearby and took a walk to GZ. I managed to get stung on the side of the face and arm lucky the children did not. Worst off the GPSr then kicked in, pointing further away where there were no stingers, so there was no need to get stung Located the cache whilst looking in the right location but it was quite wet inside. TNLN. SL which was a little damp. TFTC. |
... | RR031X | GL63VXAM | RR031 - Urban Bishops | Found it | kareninwb | Louise and I were determined to do this one as it is so close to where we live. My initial attempts to solve the puzzle failed miserably and I had vertually given up. Louise is a maths graduate and suggested I try algebra (at this point she has solved the puzzle). School maths from over 30 years ago and a certain amount of trial and error finally resulted in the correct answer and then we were off to locate the cache. I remember this footpath well as I had a friend who used to live very close by. The csche was soon found and the log signed. Certainly the hardest cache to date but probably the most satisfying! |
... | RR031X | GL64WAYG | RR031 - Urban Bishops | Found it | Louiseinwb | I wish I had discovered the Rally Round series earlier! I have just graduated with a First Class Honours Degree in Mathematics, and find these puzzles great. I solved this one relatively quickly using some basic algebra. Mum was determined to solve it, so I gave her a couple of hints. TFTC. |
23 Jul 2011 | E101 | GL63BM7P | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | Essenjay | First one on the trail and a nice quick find - let's hope we allowed enough time for this route! TFTC (1pm) |

... | E103 | GL63BM58 | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | Essenjay | Tricky to get to this one as the farmer declined to leave the footpath clear - grrrrrrrr. The footpath post in the field was even laying on the ground. Found a way through after a detour and soon found GZ and the cache. Mini cacher left a car and took a "squidgy man" - his description not mine! (25 mins in!) TFTC |
... | E103 | GL63F4QV | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | Gus&Biff | We thought we spotted fellow geocachers ahead of us then they disappeared didn't realise the crop was that high!! cache easer to find than the path. TFTC |
... | E104 | GL63BNTG | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | Essenjay | Assisted by the cacher trail a quick find. TNLN TFTC (35 mins in!) |

... | E105 | GL63BW3Q | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | Essenjay | Stopped for a bite to eat at this one and bumped into Gus and Biff who now have now skipped ahead of us. TFTC in a nice spot. (1hr 10mins in) |
... | E105 | GL63F7JX | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | Gus&Biff | Caught up with people in front yes they were fellow geocachers, nice to meet you Essenjay. Took the long way round to avoid nettles. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL63C2ZF | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Essenjay | What a find! Unbelievable! Bumped back into Gus and Biff and we were hunting a while - all flummoxed but found eventually and after the use of a number of knocked together tools and teamwork we eventually retrieved! What a tricky one! TFTC and for the teamwork! |
... | E106 | GL63FA53 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | Gus&Biff | We had left Essenjay eating their lunches at no5 but they caught up with us here as we searched and searched. With a bit of help by reading previous logs and geocachers madness we located the cache but retrieving was another matter. Well done Mr Essenjay for adapting tools and his tenacity in retrieving. Replaced to make it possible to retrieve.TFTC |
... | E107X | GL63C52X | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | Essenjay | Gus and Biff found this one quickly. Now we are walking together. TFTC |

... | E110 | GL63CK8Z | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | Essenjay | Mini cacher is on a roll! Fast find. TFTC |
... | E110 | GL63FEPK | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | Gus&Biff | Another quick find by mini cacher she is even closer to this than Biff!!! TFTC |
... | E111 | GL63CG52 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | Essenjay | Quick find. Couple of ice creams and we departed ways with Gus and Biff. TFTC. 3 hours in and gotta go out tonight. Gulp! |

... | E113 | GL63CM8P | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Essenjay | Quick find - helped by spying Gus and Biff scarpering from the location! TFTC. |
... | E113 | GL63FHK4 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | Gus&Biff | Slight delay in retrieving this as we were descended on by muggles from all directions, sat and had a drink admiring the view until they had all passed. TFTC |
... | E114 | GL63CPFF | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Essenjay | Nice hide. Swapped another car for squidgy man and took Pirate Geocoin to help on it's travels. 3 hrs 30 on series so far... |
... | E114 | GL63FJD0 | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | Gus&Biff | Quick find with only a few scratches. TFTC |
... | E115 | GL63FK2W | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Didn't find it | Gus&Biff | Again couldn't look for this as muggles still fishing!!! We'll have to come back for this at low tide. |

... | E122 | GL63DFPC | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Essenjay | A great series - all done and only one we had to skip due to fisherman. Made all the nicer by meeting and sharing the afternoon with Biff and Gus. Thanks for the series and a great walk. GPS shows 7 miles and it took us 5 hours in total. Still got time to get out for a meal so my skin is saved from Mrs Geocachers wrath! |
... | E122 | GL63FX3E | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Gus&Biff | Last one retrieved by mini cacher a useful geocaching tool but too big to fit in my bag. Lovely afternoons walk made better by meeting up with the Essenjays hope you had a good night out and thanks for lending us the mini cachers. Thanks for the series. |
... | E201 | GL63DCWM | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Essenjay | Nice big cache with a few swaps which is great for the mini-cachers. Took charm and left car. TFTC 4 hours and 45 minutes on the series and one more to go before the hunt for the car! |
... | E201 | GL63FVM4 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Gus&Biff | Thanks Mrs Essenjay for volunteering to retrieve this one much appreciated by the shorts wearing cachers. TFTC |
... | PC1 | GL63CREN | PolyCache 1 | Found it | Denbymist | Only drove past this one just to see what parking was like, not too bad, so turned round and did it anyway. When I got to the co-ordinates the cache was just laying on the footpath. Took the eraser, and left an owl. Put the cache back where I thought it should be, but may need to be checked. TFTC. |

24 Jul 2011 | CL03 | GL63RYFP | Chigborough Lakes Nature Reserve - 3 | Found it | goulbourn | Made it to the Lakes, but a very vocal youngster meant we only walked this first half of the trail. Cache found when approached from the right angle, and TB left. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL63RV68 | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | goulbourn | Whilst looking for the Chigborough Lakes car park, we found ourselves "on-top" of this one, and it seemed rude not to collect it. Retrieval wasn't too tricky, thanks to the consideration of previous cachers. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL63RRGT | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | goulbourn | Another one we weren't planning on finding, but found ourselves close by and took a detour to bag it. TFTC |
... | E110 | GL63P8XN | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | goulbourn | Found this completely unplanned. We got slightly lost on way Chigborough lakes, so pulled over to regroup. On turning gps on, it told us we where 5m from GZ, so would have been rude not to collect.
Thanks for the cache - wonder if we will ever get to the lakes......... |
25 Jul 2011 | 1111 | GL648AQP | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | Lennyemmy | Had planned to do the Great Braxted wall series with Benji today, and then got a text from PW69 saying he would join me for the walk with Shadow, it was a lovely walk with great company, the dogs had a great time.
After a walk along the wall, it was time for a few more caches whilst in the area.
A nice convenient place to park, and a surprisingly nice walk for somewhere so close to such a major road, just a shame about the road noise.
Arrived at GZ and soon spotted the cache whilst Pip took the dogs for a paddle in the water. However it was covered in a massive spiders web, and I hate spiders! So in the end despite my best efforts with a stick, I had to ask Pip for some help retrieving!
A very bright pot, love it! A great place for a cache.

After a walk along the wall, it was time for a few more caches whilst in the area.
I love Churches like this tucked out of the way. The gates were unlocked and we drove right up, a grand drive.
After a stroll round I soon had the clues and then went off to grab the cache, which was a quick find, a great little hidey hole.
Thanks for bringing me here.

The last one in a lovely walk along the wall......shame you can't see over though, would love to know what is on the other side.....it feels a bit like the 'Secret Garden', lol, very exciting! We did try and sneak-a-peek where we could though!
A nice quick find this one, like many of the others it had been left exposed, and the lid wasn't even shut properly, although everything inside was still dry. I replaced better.
Thank you very much for bringing me here, an interesting place, and a great walk. A well thought out series, which requires more effort than most.
Giving this one a favourite for the series.

Still enjoying this lovely walk, the dogs are still full of energy charging around.....you would have thought they would be worn out now!
This was a quick find, as again it had been left rather exposed.
A good hide though, I made sure I re-hid better.

Got muddy and stung on the way to this one, and then Shadow appeared out the bushes with a dead duck! (it was already dead when she found it!) Yuck!
Cache found, but very exposed, in wasn't even in the camo bag, it had just been shoved on top. I placed back much better than I found.
A good hide.

As this is the first of the caches I found, I will use this to log the micros as well.
We parked up at the suggested co-ords at the Golf Club, and as we were walking down the drive to the start of the footpath a lady stopped us and asked us what we were doing as this is private. We explained we were going for a walk, and she didn't ask us to move the car, but don't think she was very happy, CO has been emailed by Pip.
Arrived at the location of the first mirco and began my search, this one took me sometime to find, I searched and searched, when all of a sudden there it was. Once you know what you are looking for it's a lot easier, and the others were found reasonably quickly.
We sat at the end of the footpath and let the dogs have a rest whilst I sorted out the numbers, and then began the walk back in search of the caches.
This was found quite quickly as it wasn't very well covered, a lovely spot.
Covered over better when I replaced.

... | TMT01 | GL6403MH | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | jikel | 317. Took the children on a nice long walk to wear them out. Found easily, but not a very pleasant spot to be hunting. |
... | TMT02 | GL64048N | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | jikel | 318. A lovely walk across the fileds to this one. Children running around showing no signs of being tired yet. |
... | TMT03 | GL6404JG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | jikel | 319. Found by Younger Son. Barbed wire is a bit of a hazard here, but we managed to avoid any injuries. |
... | TMT04 | GL64056D | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | jikel | 320. Found it. Children still have the energy to run ahead and then run back to me asking which way to go. They have covered a few miles extra already. |
... | TMT05 | GL6405WZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | jikel | 321. Found easily by Daughter. We were very appreciative of the path cut into the crops on the way to this one. We like obvious paths! |
... | TMT06 | GL6406ZK | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | jikel | 322. This one was easy enough to find, but difficult to get to from TMT5. We followed the footpath sign over the bridge from the previous cache and then walked all the way to the end of the field. Couldn't find a way over the ditch at the end and carried on around the field, eventually looping back. After a refreshing drink and chocolate biscuit break, we tried again and found the bridge on the right in the hedge we had walked past the first time. On the right route and very happy. |
... | TMT07 | GL6407FM | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Didn't find it | jikel | Hunted around the bridge and fought the nettles back for as long as we could bear it. I suspect we were looking in the right spot, but gave up too early as we were wimps. We'll be back with gardening gloves soon! |
... | TMT08 | GL64084Z | Tolleshunt Major Tour 8 | Found it | jikel | 323. Children were very excited about walking through a field of horses....until they all wandered over to see us. It's been a while since all 3 have wanted to hold my hands. Horses were beautiful and very happy to follow us and see what we were up to. Children were happy to have made it out alive, I think (They are wimps!). Cache found. |
... | TMT09 | GL6408M4 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | jikel | 324. Children found this one and we moved on. There is a lot less running about going on now. Could they finally be tiring?! |
... | TMT10 | GL640996 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | jikel | 325. We came to a slight dead end, when faced with a perfect field of corn and no pathway through the middle, as the GPS and the sign suggested. We went to the right, around the edge of the field, and arrived at the cache. Had to linger for a bit while some very slow dog walkers went past. |
... | TMT11 | GL6409KN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | jikel | 326. Sent the children scrabbling about beyond the chicken wire to find the cache. They are just the right size for this kind of job! Found and replaced cache. |
... | TMT12 | GL640AE0 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | jikel | 327. Last one in the series and we found it before walking back to the car. Children in need of more chocolate biscuits and certainly a lot more tired than when we started. Took us about 2.5 hours to complete the circuit, including detour time between 5 and 6. We had one DNF, but had we had the clues and descriptions on the GPS, we would have found it. Didn't realise that the clues and descriptions were saved as a separate document until we started walking. Bit annoying, but we coped. Thanks for a lovely tour. We enjoyed it! |

27 Jul 2011 | RR017 | GL64J4J9 | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | kareninwb | Had to resort to the internet to help me find many of the answers to this puzzle although I managed a few of them by delving deep into my memory of school maths (it was one of my favourite subjects at school although that is going back more years than I care to remember). The Schoolfrenz GZ Checker wouldn’t accept the coordinates, amended or otherwise, that I’d come up with although I realized I had to be fairly close. As it was getting dark I decided to attempt to find the cache anyway. Fortunately my hunch was right and the cache was soon in my hand. Thanks for the cache – I enjoyed the puzzle! |

31 Jul 2011 | CN | GL65EJ2C | Crow's Nest | Write note | geo-joes | Popped in to grab geocoin. left flymo ham, seashell and badge. |
... | E101 | GL65DJTM | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | geo-joes | the start of a long days caching. Log has run out so wrote on the back |
... | E102 | GL65DN2Z | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | geo-joes | Nice packaginng, the first of many sheathed caches today. Dropped TB and picked up TB |
... | E103 | GL65DR6Z | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | geo-joes | Found our way to this one after stomping into a field, not fancing the corn,and then turing around to go to number 4 in the Goldhanger west trail. Once we we got to number 4 we found an altogether more attractive route to number 3. |
... | E104 | GL65DQ1Y | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | geo-joes | Got the first of many stings from nature here. |
... | E105 | GL65DTBQ | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | geo-joes | Log book was full so wrote on the back, two foot jump required to clear the ditch of stinging nettles, still got stung though. had chicken and bacon wrap here, just in case you care about my diet?! |
... | E106 | GL65DVAZ | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | geo-joes | This one is a two finger job! |
... | E107X | GL65DWKG | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | geo-joes | From number 6 of the goldhanger west trail you will see a locked gate (with a sign that says it should be kept clear and unobstructed at all times? why lock it?) jump this gate if you're athlectically inclined, it saves walking around to the entrance of the reserve. your welcome. |
... | E108X | GL65DYPJ | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | geo-joes | At first we walked around to the treehouse thing, thinking it was in the bushes, but found a human poo in on the floor, quickly removed ourselves from the area and read the hint and found it was a bit easier than dodging poo. cache is a little moist, needs another silicon sachet. |
... | E109 | GL65E08R | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | geo-joes | A rowdy looking goose and her crew was gaurding the path, we decided to skirt around the gaggle for fear of having our phones nicked and such like. stayed within the boundaries of the reserve only to find we needed to be on the other side of the fence, had to approach geese again, i think they thought we were after trouble.. |
... | E110 | GL65E31M | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | geo-joes | Tempted to have a pint, glad we didn't because there was a long haul ahead of us |
... | E111 | GL65E3T3 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Write note | geo-joes | Too many mugglers |
... | E112 | GL65E599 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Write note | geo-joes | More mugglers, we were losing hope by this time. |
... | E113 | GL65E7J4 | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Write note | geo-joes | Aaarrrgh, another one with mugglers about. saving the water front ones for a bleak, cloudy and miserable day when no one is hanging about. |
... | E114 | GL65E8WA | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | geo-joes | Yay, back on track, found this one. carefully hidden, or was it? |
... | E115 | GL65E9KP | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | geo-joes | Held on to gps, phone and all other small objects for fear of dropping through grate. |
... | E116 | GL65EC8R | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | geo-joes | Quick detour off the beaten track. Nearly twisted my ankle on a rock down there |
... | E117 | GL65ECN6 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | geo-joes | First cache I have seen that has an afro. |
... | E118 | GL65EDCP | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | geo-joes | I was eating an apple so I let my caching buddy go solo on this one. mmm apple. |
... | E119 | GL65EDZ8 | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | geo-joes | Laid our hands straight on this one, then made a couple of fishermen jump as we climbed a top the bank back on to the path. |
... | E120 | GL65EEEM | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | geo-joes | another quick find, this is getting easier. |
... | E121 | GL65EF7T | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | geo-joes | Nice placement, however many wasps were hanging around, it was like a bush tucker trial |
... | E122 | GL65EGKR | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | geo-joes | The final one on the trail, felt like we had achived today. Now for a pint at The Checkers Inn, mmm Brewers Gold. |
... | E201 | GL65EFYV | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | geo-joes | Stinging nettles gaurd the entrance to this one, had to man up and take some stings to get this cache |
... | E301 | GL65PCTY | Essex 100 - 3/01 - Graticule | Found it | ramieh | I came to this area to do the Tollesbury Wick series. It was a hard decision not to go to the Wales MEGA. But I stick to my original plan and stayed here. So this was the start of a lovely series. A quick find, thank you! |
... | E302 | GL65PD28 | Essex 100 - 3/02 - Decoy | Found it | ramieh | The next prequel on the way to the coast line. It is a good idea to sweeten the long straight way to the coast with some prequels. Thank you for the guidance! |
... | E303 | GL65PDN3 | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | ramieh | Funny, this is a camouflage micro in a non camouflage outer wrapping. It is placed in a very nice home and was a quick find, thank you! |
... | E304 | GL65PE9B | Essex 100 - 3/04 - Bohuns | Found it | ramieh | There we go - arrived at the Wick Sea Wall. But what is this?! A muggle sitting directly at Bohuns Hall! Luckily he was sitting on the outer side of the wall, busy with fishing and telephoning. So it was no problem to log the cache. Thank you for putting it! |
... | E306 | GL65PFKQ | Essex 100 - 3/06 - Mell | Found it | ramieh | At the Mell House Pumping Station I spent some time. Not because of this cache, this one was a quick find. But here the first information for the Bonus had to be found. I expected something written on the back of the log, like with the church micros. But there was no info. So it took me some time to find out, that the missing info what to do is to be found on the PDF sheet. Anyway this is a nice spot to sit for a while. Thank you for the cache! |
... | E309 | GL65PGM5 | Essex 100 - 3/09 - Wall | Found it | ramieh | So the next one of the series was again a quick find, as it should be! Thank you! |
... | E310 | GL65PJ3R | Essex 100 - 3/10 - Mill | Found it | ramieh | At this site I spent the longest time. It was the only nano I had to search for some time. But finally I found it. The clue is somehow absolute accurate! It is definitely a magnetic nano. Nobody said it sits on something metallic. The image is somehow a bit misleading. Maybe it was at some other place in the beginning? So I was very happy when I found this one! Then came the next challenge: where is the information for the Bonus cache? The waypoint is here, but nothing to be found that looks like some number. After some time looking for hidden infos I went on. Well, the clue says: between 4 and 5. Not at cache4. But on the other hand the waypoint ... It was a good idea to stop searching here and continue the walk. Again I was very happy to find the number on my way further on. |
... | E313 | GL65PNC4 | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | ramieh | This one again was a quick find. Also the information for the Bonus was easily to be found. Although, as time takes its toll, it is not so easy to read anymore. |
... | E314 | GL65PP1T | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | ramieh | There definitely is enough space in between Tollesbury 5 and 6 for this Extra. Again a quick find, thank you! |
... | E315 | GL65PPMM | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | ramieh | Again the clue and the photo are very accurate, so it was a quick find. That is how it should be, to enjoy the nice site. Thank you! |

... | E321 | GL65PTWJ | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | ramieh | The final gate before reaching the marina. Around here were many sheep. Again it was a quick find. The log book of this one is full so I signed somewhere in between. There are also some other logs full, Tollesbury 6 for instance. Doing maintenance for this series is probably a very busy job. Especially because of a lot of the caches can't be done by bike. So many thanks for this very nice series! |

I had a difficult start spotting the information for the Bonus, for at first I did not see the Bonus clue on the PDF info. I expected something written on the back of the logs, like with the church series. So I had some challenge to start with. I enjoyed the walk round the sea wall very much! It is a good idea to make the hides easy with good descriptions and photos, so there is enough time to enjoy the walk. Searching for difficult hides in each spot would have been not much fun, especially with limited time. I was happy to find all of the caches, this is very satisfying. This is the reason why I came to this place. Thank you very much for the great job, I had a wonderful day at the sea wall! |

Headed straight out the door for that elusive FTF I had a good idea where this would be and parked up close by. GPSr gave me a good heading, it was all I needed as I went straight to the cache. I opened the cache to find an empty log and Schoolfrenz tag ... 1 was 1FT Took Schoolfrenz tag (thank you). SL. TFTC. |

We saw this one come out, so thought we would try on the way home.
Parked up at a convenient pull-in nearby and started our search, after a few minutes and no luck, I looked at the map again and said 'Nah, gotta be that side.' So off we went and the cache was soon in hand.
An interesting spot.

... | RR061 | GL663NYB | RR061 - Crow-nundrum | Found it | gillywig | We stumbled upon RR60 in the search for RR53, but this was a complete surprise. Gilly was determined to look in every possible hiding place along this stretch. The conjecturing being a mix of "Ray would be bound to put a cache around here" and "How far did James stroll?" Much to my(Gr) amazement Gilly produced the cache. Fantastic! SL TFTC. It has to be a favorite. This now poses two questions: 1) How do you solve the puzzle? and 2) Where IS RR53? |

Pergunta aqui, pergunta ali, "Ah, aqui há duas capelas...uma para ali, e outra para além!!" Bem, vamos tentar primeiro a de além... Chegados ao local..."Opá...mas nós já estivemos aqui o ano passado e fizemos uma cache nesta capela" Bem, não era ali de certeza...fomos tentar a outra capela... Aà sim, a cache foi encontrada sem grandes dificuldades Uma capela bem escondidinha!! Ainda tentamos recolher agua do poço...mas bem que fizemos força, mas ela não saiu... TFTC |

Esta ainda deu alguma luta, pois não estavamos a conseguir decifrar o enigma. Foi necessário perguntar a uns residentes onde ficava a capela da foto... Depois de muito andar, acabamos por dar com o local onde estava a cache. Pena foi a nora não deitar água. Estávamos com uma sede...Umas pinguitas vinham mesmo a calhar.

... | E101 | GL68WMKP | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | JellyBeanJan | My husband and I were in the area to attend a meeting this evening so did the Goldhanger West Walk this morning / early afternoon. It was a beautiful day with surprisingly few people about and we had a most enjoyable walk. Most of the log books are full and need some maintenance and we had one or two DNF's but overall a most enjoyable walk with a lot of ducks and other wildlife along the way. We actually started at #11 because that was closest to where we parked but it seems more logical to put this main log at #1.
We found this one easily and I tried to use my new stamp for the first time but the date came out as 31 Aug instead of 13th and I got covered in ink trying to change it so didn't bother using it again after that!! |

Not too sure about crossing the field of Butternut Squash growing in the field but the sign said Public Footpath so across we went but as carfeully as possible. The cache was easily foiund once we got the other side of the corn field. |

This was a total mystery as no rusty pole here.. only wooden rails. There was a rusty metal gate nearby but this could not have been described as a rusty pole and although we searched regardless for some time we did not find this cache. |

... | RR003X | GL68KWDF | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | HollynCharlie | Before getting on with decorating the nursery this afternoon we thought it was about time we came and found this cache as Jen had worked this one out sometime ago after a little guidance, (as she found part slightly ambigious - heehee, Im on Kitty's side with this one) and the Dogs needed a run. We parked up and had a lovely walk through some nice countryside,a tractor was hard a work but way in the distance. At GZ it was a nice quick find. Left a Travel ingot for the next finder.

... | E102 | GL69CZ8X | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Didn't find it | the_fullers | After success at Goldhanger West - 1 we followed the trial to this location. As we approached GZ we could see a nice new bridge that we were sure would spell D N F A good search in the general area and the cache was nowhere to be found. |
... | E102 | GL69CZP0 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Needs Maintenance | the_fullers | Looks like this cache has gone astray since the new bridge was put in place. |
... | E103 | GL69D158 | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | the_fullers | With a DNF at Goldhanger West - 2 we continued across the footpath, or rather danced left and right to avoid the crops as we crossed the field We were rewarded with a nice easy find making up for the DNF and hard going along the footpath . TNLN. SL. TFTC. |
... | E104 | GL69D1NM | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | the_fullers | Success at Goldhanger West - 3 lead us to this location. A nice easy find. TNLN. SL. TFTC. |

... | E107X | GL69D59M | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 6 we progressed to locate the permissive path. A walk along the path and were at GZ. Took a couple of minutes to find this one, not sure why but got there in the end. SL. TFTC. |
... | E108X | GL69DAC2 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | the_fullers | Returning to the trail after a detour to Buttercup Bench. This one was a quick and easy find, however, the log was a little damp. Sl. TFTC. |
... | E109 | GL69DBDW | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 8 we continued along the trail. A minor mistake with the poetic clue had us on the wrong side of the road but this was quickly realised and the cache soon in hand. SL. TFTC. |
... | E110 | GL69DCGY | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 9 we continue along the trail, pick a good time to cross a very busy road. The cache was located in no time at all so we decided to stop for a quick drink to re-fuel the children. SL. TFTC. |
... | E111 | GL69DE1K | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Didn't find it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 10 and a quick drink stop we continue along the trail. We got GZ to find dozens of mini-muggles (oddly no parents in sight) we had a good look but were unable to locate anything more than spider webs May well have been muggled with the number of small ones playing at GZ. |
... | E111A | GL69DGAK | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | the_fullers | Walking the Goldhanger West trail this afternoon. This was a quick find, in fact in the very location I had assumed to locate Goldhanger West - 11 (which we had to log a DNF on ) TNLN. SL. TFTC. |
... | E112 | GL69DHG6 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | the_fullers | Back on the Goldhanger West trail after a stop at Escape to the Blackwater Estuary. We assumed this cache was in one location but quickly realised our mistake. We had to wait a while to replace the cache with a number of passing muggles. TNLN. SL. TFTC. |
... | E113 | GL69DJFT | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 12 we enjoyed the gallop to this location.

... | E114 | GL69DKEX | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 13 we continued along the trail.

SL. TFTC. |
... | E115 | GL69DM88 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 14 we continued along the trail. I very nearly missed the vole hole but was not going to fall for the same trick twice in one series SL. TFTC. |
... | E116 | GL69DQ0W | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 15 we continue along the trail. Got close to GZ but could not see how to get close enough. The children were starting to feel it so we were about to give up when I spotted a way through. I ran down to locate the cache whilst the rest of the_fullers walked on. A quick find, however, it took some time to find space in the log, which is now totally full. SL. TFTC. |
... | E116 | GL69DQ4K | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Needs Maintenance | the_fullers | Log is now full |

This was a quick and easy find, however, it took some time to find somewhere to sign the log. SL. TFTC. |

... | E120 | GL69DYXF | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 19 and the end in sight we progressed to this cache. A quick and easy find. A muggle in a Land Rover searching for his lost dog came up to GZ to ask if we had seen him but this did not hinder our progress. SL. TFTC. |
... | E121 | GL69DZHM | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Didn't find it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 20 was deeply frustrated with a DNF here I could see the hook where the cache should be and even searched without any luck. Think this one may have been muggled. |
... | E121 | GL69E011 | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Needs Maintenance | the_fullers | Hook but no cache can the owner please check on this cache? |
... | E122 | GL69E1RF | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | the_fullers | With success at Goldhanger West - 22 and children that were struggling to move any further there was a sudden new lease of life at the sight of the play area The children had a nice play whilst I located the cache.

19 Aug 2011 | RR027X | GL6A7FHQ | RR027 - Beetle | Found it | HollynCharlie | Yes we are back on the Rally Round mission especially as all of our closest to home caches are now RR's so we set out to Tiptree Heath on this glorious evening to cross the first two off the list. Jen has had a day a home today whilst the plumber did his thing with our radiators which gave her some time to work through a few more puzzles. Determined she so was. Got to GZ for a nice quick find by Simon. TFTC left Travel Bug |

... | SA | GL6A99YZ | Steve and Angie | Found it | MarumFamily | A primeira vez que vi o mapa, não consegui perceber como utiliza-lo para encontrar o GZ. Mas passada uma semana, a solução apareceu logo. Muito engraçado e engenhoso.
Chegados ao local, demos imediatamente com o container que estava um pouco à vista.
Valeu a pena.
Nota: o TB não está lá.

27 Aug 2011 | E101 | GL6CBWDM | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | n0tley | We've been meaning to attempt the Goldhanger West series for some time, but having two small children were worried about the length. Anyway today we went for it! We parked up near the Church and headed off with our packed up our lunch and loads of snacks. The Cache was quickly found and the replacement logbook signed. TFTC! |
... | E102 | GL6CC7NT | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | n0tley | Another quick find, this time by Mini Cacher#2. The children excitedly exchanged thier swaps. We also picked up a Schoolfrenz Pathtag, we haven't come across one of these before so will be Googling what it is . TFTC! This entry was edited by n0tley on Sunday, 28 August 2011 at 22:01:40 UTC. |
... | E103 | GL6CCA89 | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | n0tley | The children were impressed with what was growing in the field we crossed. This time Mini Cacher#1 dived in and retrieved the Cache. TFTC! |
... | E104 | GL6CCBK8 | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | n0tley | We're carrying a fair bit of mud on our boots now, so the pace has slowed a little. Even so, Mini Cacher#1 pretty much made a sprint for this one. TFTC! |
... | E105 | GL6CCDPA | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | n0tley | The puddles on the road came in handy to wash off the mud off our boots. As we passed the houses we were confronted by a rather large, noisy dog. Luckily the owner was quickly on hand and ushered it back into the yard. We made our way quickly to GZ and found the Cache quickly. TFTC! |
... | E106 | GL6CCF0T | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | n0tley | A rather sneaky and clever hide this one, we loved it! TFTC! |
... | E107X | GL6CCMJZ | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | n0tley | We were glad the tree houses were unoccupied to today. Another goos hide. TFTC! |
... | E108X | GL6CCQ51 | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | n0tley | This is a lovely spot, so after finding this Cache we decided to head over and have our picnic at the Buttercup Bench Cache. TFTC! |
... | E109 | GL6CCTKD | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | n0tley | Quick find this one. TFTC! |
... | E110 | GL6CCVE9 | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | n0tley | We had to pick our moment and be quick on this busy stretch. Mummy n0tley grabbed the cache while daddy held on to the children. TFTC! |
... | E111 | GL6CCXMB | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | n0tley | Now this one had us going!! We had to wait for many muggles to pass and when the coast was clear it still took us 10min to find the cache. Great hide! TFTC! |
... | E112 | GL6CD0XA | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | n0tley | Upon arriving at GZ we found a group of teenage muggles sitting on the path not three metres from the Cache. However they were so engrossed in their conversation they paid no attention to a family of Geocachers resting a while on the steps. The cache was recovered and returned without alerting any suspicion. TFTC! |
... | E113 | GL6CD2YK | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | n0tley | We had to wait for muggles to pass and for an on-looker from the lodges to move out of sight. The cache was found, signed and returned quickly. TFTC! |
... | E114 | GL6CD73C | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Didn't find it | n0tley | Our first DNF of the series . Pretty sure we were in the right place, but after a good look we decided to move on. |
... | E115 | GL6CD7Z8 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | n0tley | After the DNF at #14 I was pleased to go straight to this one. A great hide. TFTC! |
... | E116 | GL6CDA2P | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | n0tley | Oh no its starting to rain and there are no trees to offer some shelter! We quickly grabbed the neat cache, while hoping its just a passing shower. TFTC! |
... | E117 | GL6CDC42 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | n0tley | The rain is really coming down like stair-rods now. Despite the waterproofs we were all getting soaked! I decided to try and quickly grab this one one while the others carried on hoping for some shelter. Luckily the cache was found in the first place I looked. TFTC! |
... | E118 | GL6CDDJT | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Didn't find it | n0tley | Absolutely soaked now, so only had a quick look based on the hint. Oh no, the same problem as #14 a DNF. |
... | E119 | GL6CDEKF | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | n0tley | The rain seems to be getting lighter now. Luckily a quick find as we head back to Goldhanger to try and dry off. TFTC! |
... | E120 | GL6CDFTG | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | n0tley | The sun has come out, so we're all starting to warm up again now. This one took a couple of minutes, but we were pleased that it didn't beat us. TFTC! |
... | E121 | GL6CDGJG | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | n0tley | A quick search of the likely candidate revealed the cache. TFTC! |
... | E122 | GL6CDPH3 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Didn't find it | n0tley | I'm a little embarrassed to mark this as a DNF. I've now read the previous logs and I think I now know where it is - At the time I didn't think it would be the other side. Oh well, one for another day.
Thank you to a fantastic trail! In the end it was the children who had more energy than us. They didn't moan once that they were tired, even when it was pelting down with rain!
Thanks again for the series and we'll be back one day to sort out the three DNF's. |
... | E201 | GL6CDHGH | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | n0tley | It took a couple of minutes to figure out how to get to GZ, but once we had the well hidden Cache was found safe and sound. TFTC! |
... | RR022X | GL6C031D | RR022 - PolyCache 5 | Found it | Denbymist | Another nice walk looking for a PolyCaches. Only 2 more to go. TFTC. |

... | SA | GL6C3PCZ | Steve and Angie | Found it | SandroDionisio | Esta foi a ultima do dia! Encontramos facilmente a "menina" :) ainda andamos a tentar sacar água mas a bomba não deve estar boa. Também reparei, pelas fotos de outros posts, que a capela foi recentemente pintada. Feita com o Farrajota.

... | E102 | GL6C73YP | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Write note | Mr Crow | An interesting note received from n0tley which sheds some light on this cache's recent disappearance or religious defection:
We completed your fantastic Goldhanger West series yesterday (I'll log the finds later). After we finished the route we decided to hunt for the Church Micro @ St.Peters Church [GC1PP64] and as we passed the porch we spotted what appeared to be a Geocache sitting on the bench just inside. Being an inquisitive bunch, we decided to take a closer look and discovered that the cammo bag contained the muggled 'Goldhanger West-2', still containing logbook and swaps. We placed the container back inside the cammo bag and tucked it away into the corner.
We thought we would let you know in case you wanted to recover it. |

... | E106 | GL6CMGDH | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | axwood | Major trouble here, as the container had been previously put back too far.

Luckily I always carry my Swiss army knife and fashioned a "stick with hook" from something sturdy that was growing out of the ground nearby. A few attempts and it was free. TFTC |

Now this is a cache!
Dropped off loads of bugs and discovered a few. Took the Viking geocoin. Wanted to do the chirp bonus, but was a bit pushed for time and wasn't sure about my parking place. Will be back for it.......
Thanks very much for the cache - an obvious favourite,

02 Sep 2011 | RR064X | GL6DJNV7 | Rally Round 64 aka Leg-ability 3 | Found it | mcwomble | #2458 As I was in the area, time to mop up the missing Rally Round cache. I was far too muddy to contemplate it when it came out, but tonight it was a doddle. I parked close by for a cache & dash with hazard lights flashing but still had one car stop and wonder what I was up to. Apologies if this one gets muggled because of it!
TFTC |
... | RR066X | GL6DJN3J | RR066 - Serendipity Chickens | Found it | mcwomble | #2457 FTF Spotted this one when it came out, but was wholly engrossed in the Son of Beamflote Beast at the time so my puzzling brain was elsewhere. Todays hint from the Daily Squawk essentially confirmed which direction I should be looking in and I was part way there. The anagram proved tricky but one random incorrect choice lead me to an intuitive leap to what was the correct solution and the chicken checkers confirmed it. Tonight a rather pleasant walk, although one part of the footpath has seen better days and then out through fields to the cache itself. Lots of mushrooms spotted along the way and a fairly speedy find. All those who've done RR53 will know the drill! On the return the dodgy footpath caused me to become more aware of my surrounds and lots of sloes bushes spotted with sloes the size of marbles! I also spotted a wild damson too (hands off they're mine!) so looks like I'll be off to the supermarket for their finest cooking gin, to start production on this years sloe gin! Thanks for another fun little puzzle - at first I was a little dubious, but the solution turned out to be very inventive. Definitely worth a favourite point.

Farmer/owner of a nearby building came over to see what we were doing. He mentioned that he had seen people behaving strangely at this location before. Seemed convinced that were genuine and had no ulterior motive. |

Hard to get in and out of. TFTC. |
... | E107X | GL6ETEKA | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | kareninwb | Final cache of the day for Louise and I. GPS suggested that this cache was almost at the same spote as Goldhanger West 6. Used to satelite view to get a bit more detail. Started off on the wrong side of the footpath but soon realised our error. Cache was difficult to retrieve and return. |

... | E108X | GL6ETB7M | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | kareninwb | Wow! What a pretty place. Hadn't visited before, and on a warm sunny afternoon this really was an idyllic spot. There were ducks and swans on the lake, a fisherman nearby and a couple rowing across the lake in a boat. I shall be back with a picnic and a good book to enjoy such a beautiful spot. And as for the cache..... no problems with this one. |

... | E109 | GL6ETAAM | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | kareninwb | Caching day with Louise. Relatively quick find once we had located the correct side of the road. |

... | E110 | GL6E0EPW | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with Muttier. Nice quick find. Was slightly distracted by the very affectionate pussy cat who lived on the premises! TFTC. |
... | E110 | GL6ET940 | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | kareninwb | After completing the Blackwater Rail Trail we stopped for lunch and then decided to do as many of the Goldhanger caches as we could fit into the afternoon. Started at number 10 as it was the closed to home. Nice easy first find on this circuit. Lots of passers by in cars, and the cutest cat who welcomed us to his domain and the cache location! |

... | E114 | GL6DWRZZ | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Didn't find it | Indy Walker | our only DNF of the series, was sure we were in the right place.. just couldn't find it! |
... | E115 | GL6DWT9K | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | Indy Walker | had to wait for a couple of fishermen to move before quickly locating the cache... much easier to get to than the last one! |

... | E122 | GL6DWWNV | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | Indy Walker | Found while the youngest one was playing, popped over the locked gate then realised you only have to come from the other direction (around play park) to not have to do any climbing! Doh!!!!!! TFTC |
... | E201 | GL6DWW86 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | Indy Walker | lots of stinging nettles here.. and no sign of the TB either! TFTC |
... | E313 | GL6DTGFE | Essex 100 - 3/13 - Pier | Found it | the_fullers | Having broken this series in to two parts, today we returned to complete the entire walk. I say returned today, we did return a week or so ago and got soaked through once again (localised weather system does not seem to like us ) so had to abandon before we started We returned along the paths to pick up where we left off. We were very lucky and picked up the bonus information on route to this cache, having forgotten to look for it last time. The cache was located in next to no time. SL. TFTC. |
... | E314 | GL6DTP4Y | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 5, we continued along to this cache. The sun was shining over the water and there were plenty of boats out sailing and even a Jet Ski came zipping past whilst on route. Some lovely scenery on a really nice sunny day. At GZ the cache was an easy find, even mixing up left hand and right hand . SL. TFTC. |
... | E315 | GL6DTX53 | Essex 100 - 3/15 - Blockhouse | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 5A, we continued along to this cache. We could not resist stopping at one of the banks of shells to collect a couple of shells for the children’s scrap books Continuing to enjoy the views we noticed some muggles heading toward GZ as we got closer we noticed they had stopped for a paddle in the water, luckily GZ was a little further away than we thought Think we made more work of locating this cache than was required but did get there in the end. SL. TFTC. |
... | E316 | GL6DVAM8 | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 6, we continued along to this cache. Whilst on route we noticed a few muggles in the distance, we were walking slowly (children tend to do that so hoped they would not catch-up with us before we got to this cache and had chance to search. We lucky, I think they had stopped for a while and we were able to locate the cache quickly and return long before the muggles passed though SL. TFTC. |
... | E317 | GL6DVEV9 | Essex 100 - 3/17 - Recharge | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 7, we continued along to this cache. With muggles well in the distance still, we arrived at GZ and took a well-deserved sit down whilst the children searched The cache was located quickly, the log was signed and the cache replaced long before the muggles were close enough. We thought we would wait until they had passed, us travelling slower and all , so watched a couple of people fishing on the sand bank. The children thought it was highly amusing that one of the chaps was only wearing (what looked like) his underwear and a pair wellington boots whilst fishing. TFTC. |
... | E318 | GL6DVGWP | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 8, we continued along to this cache. We made a misjudgement and started searching in the wrong location, after no simple find I checked the GPSr to see we were only half way there … oopsie . After returning the to the trail we got to GZ easily enough but with boat watching and bird watching muggles close by we had to divide the force to look a little less conspicuous. Luckily we made quick work of the find and had the cache replaced in no time at all. SL. TFTC. |
... | E320 | GL6DVP59 | Essex 100 - 3/20 - Leavings | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 8A, we continued along to this cache. In the distance we could see what looked like GZ, heavily populated with muggles. We continued hoping that our slow pace and the distance would work in our favour, however, this was not the case as they remained encamped We perched the children on one end of the bench and began a very discreet search whilst the muggles continued to watch the sailing boats and birds. Mrs_Fuller spotted the cache and signalled its location to Fuller_Monkey1 who slid in and grabbed the cache without anyone noticing (think he is aiming for a career in MI5 ). SL and was looking to return the cache when the muggles up and left. This gave us time to calculate the bonus coordinates then replace the cache with no one about. TFTC. |
... | E321 | GL6DVTCN | Essex 100 - 3/21 - Counterwall | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 9, we continued along to this cache. It was nice that this trail to loops round in the way it does, the children had noticed the LightShip in the distance some time before. It was really nice to get a little closer and we all enjoyed watching the boats heading into and out of the Marina. We got close to GZ, had a good look around for muggles, and then headed in for a quick and easy find. SL. TFTC. |
... | RR246 | GL6DTG87 | RR246 - The Nearest FarAway Place | Found it | Denbymist | Had some spare time this afternoon, so I thought I would start off this tetralogy. I took route 2,no problems getting to GZ, and found the cache quite quickly. TNLN. |
... | X-TWB | GL6DVZWF | Tollesbury Wick - Bonus | Found it | the_fullers | Having returned to the trail today and with success at Tollesbury Wick Sea Wall – 10, we continued along to this cache. We were all very pleased that we were able to locate the bonus information. We were sure we has missed the information between cache 4 and cache 5 but were able to locate this today whilst picking up the trail again After placing the coordinates into the GPSr we knew where this cache must be, sure enough it was there. We arrived at GZ with no muggles in sight, located the cache and returned quickly. What a great series with some excellent scenery and a perfectly placed bonus to finish off. I’ve already recommend this to a number of people. BIG TFTC. |

08 Sep 2011 | RR007 | GL6F1PGV | RR007 - Totham Triangle 3 | Found it | The Growler | One of the easier SF puzzles! TFTC |
... | RR032 | GL6F3C9N | RR032 - Quite Near Olive | Found it | Pazzers | After no luck with the puzzle, we managed to work out the location anagram and having found the unmarked footpath, we set off to the likely place and bingo there it was. Still cant work out the puzzle. Having walked passed this cache for many many months on our daily ramble with the dogs how fantastic that a little old cache should be just there. Thanks for the Cache and the brain strain. |

... | RR061 | GL6F2MK3 | RR061 - Crow-nundrum | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Hmm .. jogged past to check and the cache appeared to be gone - at least it's not where I originally left it. Widening my search in case to had been tossed aside, I found the previous incarnation of the cache - presumed lost - and buried in its wrong place. This cache is now where Crow-nundrum ought to be, but ignore the GC number and signatures on the log. I'll drop in a new log the next time I'm passing. |
... | RR063 | GL6F1PFD | RR063 - Off Set | Found it | The Growler | My favourite Schoolfrenz cache to date. Brilliant! |

... | RR247 | GL6FBKNC | RR247 - Panglossian | Found it | Denbymist | Another nice long walk along the local public footpaths. Altough some parts of it didn't look much like footpaths. Got there in the end though for a fairly straight forward find. |
11 Sep 2011 | RR056X | GL6G974T | RR056 - NiJE | Found it | Kitty!! | Awesome! That is - TOBy and this Cache! Having been cruelly unappeciative of Mr Crow's pride and joy I had no option but to tackle this puzzle. (Ok, really, I've been hanging on to a Travel Bug called Toby that I really wanted to place in this cache!) I got as far as ascertaining what was involved and started researching the matter on google and certain help pages. However, it all looked far too complicated for a fluffy brained Kitty and, being arithmophobic, shied away from the task in hand. But oh dear, Mr Crow was having none of that and an excruciatingly painful mathematics tutorial took place this weekend! (Actually, I'm not sure who found it more painful - Kitty or poor Mr Crow !) I was then left to play with excel on my laptop and produced a marvellous spreadsheet. Gleefully I set to analysing my handywork and produced the following coords " NQL3UW..." ie gobbledygook . Mr Crow was not impressed However, Mr Crow kindly confirmed my spreadsheet was correct it was "just" Kitty being dim and reading it incorrectly! So, Sunday afternoon, Mr Crow accompanied Little One and I on a few Rally Round caches. A brilliant hide! Matches the puzzle, car and CO! Favourite of course! TFTC and tutorial! PS After all this effort Toby didn't fit inside the cache and I'll have to drop him at the Essex Meet! |
... | RR057X | GL6FRT78 | RR057 - Phoney | Found it | Kitty!! | "Is it Art" is proving to be an incey wincey bit tricksy so attention has been diverted back to Rally Rounds! Jess has been helping me solve them (in truth she is more clued up than Mum) and thus agreed to visit a few this afternoon. Accompanied on the tour by Mr Crow himself. Jess located this one whilst I was blindly adding "next stage" into my GPS and walking into giant thistles! A brilliant puzzle/cache. A favourite of course (will have to start removing favourite points from the Scarecrow caches now as Im running out!!) TFTC and company. XXX |
... | RR066X | GL6FT82G | RR066 - Serendipity Chickens | Found it | Kitty!! | Bwuaak bok bok bwuaak!
This is the most brilliantly comical puzzle cache ever! I was on the right lines for quite a while but struggled with one stage. The latest Daily Squawk resolved the methodology. "No!! Surely he cant expect me to awbs wnluka ri lkk rgw vkiist xguxjwba!" I screamed when the mist cleared. Hilarious!
Jess assisted with the solving and thus joined me on a Rally Round tour this afternoon, accompanied by Mr Crow. A lovely walk to GZ. Left a golf ball. TFTC - a favourite of course! |

... | 1111-2 | GL6GEMMG | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | Knights81 | Quick after dark find! |
... | 1111-2 | GL6GF0Z1 | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | I was puzzled by mel-ray's DNF, it possibly meant the cache had gone on holiday. Called in with Kitty Cachers to check on the way to Essex Meet 11 and there was cazmockett exiting with a DNF. Enticed her back to show her the location of the cache and ... it's missing. Drat. At the Meet Mel kindly donated a new cache which I replaced on the way home. Mel, Caz and Kitty signed the log in the pub. |
... | 1111-2 | GL6GFW6P | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | spuddyboy1 | Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble. A nice night cache with knights81 after the Essex meet. Thanks for the cache |
... | 1111-2 | GL6GFXQ0 | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | cazmockett | #1419 found @ 19:45 Went for this on the way to the Essex Cachers' Meet. Was about to give up with a DNF when who should I bump into but Schoolfrenz and Miss Kitty doing a maintenance visit. Sure enough, Ray confirmed it was gone but I was in the right place. Later in the evening he provided a replacement pot and log, which I was able to sign. TFTC! |
... | 1111-2 | GL6GK62P | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | Kitty!! | On the way to Essex Meet No 11 with Mr Crow, we stopped off for a maintenance visit. As we arrived we spotted Caz leaving and waved madly to her! She rejoined us at GZ just as we confirmed that it had gone walkies. Thankfully MelRay donated a replacement at the meet and we were able to sign and replace afterwards. I look forward to 1.11.11 and 11.11.11! TFTC |
... | 1111-2 | GL6GN8EG | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | mcwomble | #2462 Last weeks DNF was apparently valid as the CO had to replace it this evening. Rather than sign it at the meet (like some), I chose to take in the thrill of the chase so to speak! A quick little find, that's obvious from the road, that is if you know where to look!
Thanks for bringing me here and thanks for the cache.

... | 1111-2 | GL6GQT9R | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | mel-ray | Night out for the Essex meeting with a cache or 2 on the way to get the feeling of caching before meeting up with all the locals that attended. Enjoyed the caches and the event and can't wait to do it again. A DNF turned out to be muggled, but all good now. For an enjoyable evening, T4TC. |
... | E101 | GL6GCDCA | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | denarius | Found after a bit of a delay while a gentleman finished spraying weeds outside his house. Nice hide, and off we go. TFTC |
... | E102 | GL6GCEB1 | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | denarius | Not to hard to find, thanks. A nicely put together route, good directions and clues. Nice cache, thanks |
... | E103 | GL6GCEXP | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | denarius | This was lying under the bridge as we approached. A nice cache, managed to pop it back safely. Thanks |
... | E104 | GL6GCFJQ | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | denarius | What a lovely cache to celebrate our 600th find. Really enjoying our walk today, the sun is out and it pleasantly breezy. We had a rummage,took a red shoe horn and left a nice pen. Thanks. |
... | E105 | GL6GCFVH | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | denarius | The lonely post cheered up with some company, A nice cache. Thanks |
... | E106 | GL6GCCGV | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Jogged past - secure and accessible. |
... | E106 | GL6GCGCC | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | denarius | Clever hide but the hint did kinda give us what we needed. Thanks |

... | E107X | GL6GCGYE | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | denarius | Some beautiful and well kept lakes nearby. Missed a turn somewhere and had to retrace our steps a bit. Soon on the right track again and the cache was in hand. Thanks |

... | E109 | GL6GCHW1 | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | denarius | The little rhyme threw us off the scent a bit as we realised we were searching in the wrong place. Mr D soon laid his hands on the cache and we were on to number 10. Nice one, thanks |
... | E110 | GL6GCJA1 | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | denarius | Handy little diversion this, especially if you've built up a thirst walking a long way. Managed to avoid the temptation. Soon had the cache and preceeded on to number 11. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL6GCJM6 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | denarius | Now your talking, loving the scenery. The perfect day for a sea wall walk. Thanks for bringing us here. |
... | E111A | GL6GCK4H | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | denarius | Found this cache on our walk along the sea wall during our Goldhanger West series. A nice little bonus, thanks. |
... | E112 | GL6GCKK1 | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | denarius | Loving the scenery and the walk. Really enjoyable and well thought out series of caches with some lovely views over the water. Thanks |

... | E119 | GL6GCNRX | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | denarius | Ah-ha, found it. Nice hide, thanks |
... | E120 | GL6GCP34 | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | denarius | The great thing about the sea path is the drop down each side which is great if you are being stealthy. Thanks. |
... | E121 | GL6GCPG5 | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | denarius | Nice hide this one. Some lovely views around here. Thanks for bringing us. |
... | E122 | GL6GCQXX | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | denarius | Last but not least. Walked round the road way only to find the gate locked. Luckily Mr D. managed to reach through. A nicely put together route, good directions and clues. We've enjoyed it a lot and some of the scenery and wildlife have been beautiful. Thanks for bringing us here. |
... | E201 | GL6GCQAV | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | denarius | What a lovely big cache and we've had such an enjoyable walk. We've seen birds and butterflies, even a hare. Very nicely put together route, good directions and clues. Placed the Phariee's Ham Radio Geocoin here. We will make this one of our favourites, thanks. |
... | RR001 | GL6GCEMP | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | GeoCotch | Solved without mishap, same can't be said for the search. We wandered out to GZ only to find ourselves in the middle of a field, it was here that I remembered we should have parked somewhere else in order to find the last piece of the puzzle. We walked back to the car, drove off, found the extra info, did our sums, did our sums again, did our sums yet again, got back in the car, drove back, did our sums once more and then walked back along the same path again! No idea what the hint said but the hide was failrly obvious, admin done and back to the car. Only another 60 or 70 more Schoolfrenz Unknowns to solve and we'll be back. Thanks for all the caches and well done to Dave for not strangling me. Grabbed the pathtag, thanks. |
... | RR001 | GL6GE54P | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | coldrum | Last RR cache for us today as we need to get back for 13.30 in Kent...that was my fault. Thanks for the RR caches we've done today. I've looked at one or two before and been intrigued, but not quite got round to some proper puzzle solving. That will change. We'll be back before long. Thanks again. |
... | RR005 | GL6GCBZF | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Found it | GeoCotch | Probably the quickest solve of the small amount of Schoolfrenz caches on the solved pile and the longest search. If we'd solved the hint anagram, which we did on the way back to the car, we'd have found it much quicker. Luckily, Dave spotted it as I was losing heart! Many thanks |
... | RR005 | GL6GE403 | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Found it | coldrum | Handy parking seems to be a feature of these caches for us so far anyway. I have done a little before and like caching around this area (probably because it's flat!). We were wuite content searching here, and it began to look as though we may be searching for some time. After a few minutes though I spotted it attached to the first item we had both imnspected! No hints for us as we haven't yet found the on-line help we need. TFTC |
... | RR012 | GL6GCRTH | RR012 - OScillation | Found it | denarius | Sat and worked this one out last night as we had planned to do the Goldhanger West Series. Access seemed more difficult due to the mini travellers camp. Took a different route and happily seized the cache. Thanks for a challenging puzzle and a most interesting hide. |
... | RR015 | GL6GCB77 | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | GeoCotch | If only the answer to "How can this possibly help me when I leave school?" was "you'll be able to solve evil geocaching puzzles!" I may have paid more attention. Fortunately, the help offered in the hint did the trick and a solution was found. A relatively quick find at GZ, the hint helped. Many thanks |
... | RR015 | GL6GE2MP | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | coldrum | In preparation for our trip to Essex, GeoCotch managed to solve a few of these fascinating puzzles. I was most impressed with his efforts, especially as he was looking after a 5 year old and a 10 day old at the same time.
My only contribution was to make sandwiches, and navigate us here. This was the one angram I managed to decipher, though it was Steve who found the cache. Thanks. |

... | RR025X | GL6GCA24 | RR025 - Caroline | Found it | GeoCotch | Out on a Schoolfrenzy with Coldrum and after Braxted Wall we only had a short time to collect as many RRs as possible. I think I'm logging this one out of sync but it was the first Schoolfrenz cache solved and so seems apt. Really enjoyed the puzzle side of this one, it is very clever. The brambles weren't too bad today, we couldn't work out the anagrams so had to do make do without hints. TFTC |
... | RR025X | GL6GE38V | RR025 - Caroline | Found it | coldrum | As I have said, Steve did all the solving for today's trip, for which I am very grateful. A quick find here, for me though...just trying to make a contribution. Thanks. |
... | RR029 | GL6GF0FJ | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | vanguard3 | A Rally Round puzzle solved!!. Not sure it will start a deluge of future visits though. Drove to the FP start & found a convenient parking space then along the FP, or rather along the earth where the path had been ploughed. Found cache & then worked out hint anagram! Took Schoolfrenz tag to hand back to Ray at the meet. Turned out to handy that I did. TFTC. #2273. |
... | RR029 | GL6GFV5K | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | gspleo | Found on a caching expedition with vanguard3 and G4UYG whilst on way to the Essex Meet. Puzzle solved by Bob (I'd still be staring at it with no idea). Path to GZ had been ploughed over so a bit rough on the feet and legs. Easy find and easy to work out the anagram once you know where the cache is! TNLN TFTC |
... | RR029 | GL6GH2KK | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | G4UYG | #1224 18:32 Found with V3 & Gspleo on a sunny day before going to Essex Cachers Meet 11 I don't see why people reckon the Rally Round series is so difficult. All you need to do is wait for Bob to solve it and just follow him But at least I bent down and retrieved the cache for him... TFTC, Ralph |
... | RR059 | GL6GCEF3 | RR059 - Crow-mosomes | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Jogged past - and MISSING! Odd given that this is usually a secure spot. Searched wider and found the cache 20 feet away and about to topple into the stream. The cache was unharmed despite its adventure and restored to its hide - with a bit stone on top to stop it wandering! |
... | RR257X | GL6GC6ZR | RR257 - Great Braxted Wall 1 | Found it | GeoCotch | Yet again we had to sort my rotten calculations out in order to get to this one. In my defence I shall say that I think I found all the clue caches, lucky that I didn't have to do the rest of the work on my own. This is an excellent little series, great area, great walk and very well thought out. Many thanks |
... | RR257X | GL6GE1PE | RR257 - Great Braxted Wall 1 | Found it | coldrum | In view of his recent new arrival, some baby talk occurred on the way here, bringing back some distant, and almost gone, memories for me. We had another quick find after correcting the sums again. This has been a good little series for us, the like of which I have not come across before. Enough to keep the mind exercised, and enough to look at to keep the walk interesting too. Doing one route in 2 directions I normally try to avoid, but this one was fine. Many thanks for all the hard work....And now for as many Rally Rounds as we can fit in before we need to leave for home. |
... | RR258X | GL6GC67J | RR258 - Great Braxted Wall - 2 | Found it | GeoCotch | Spotted the likely hidey hole on approach, we wouldn't have had a chance if we'd gone with my calcs! TFTC |
... | RR258X | GL6GE0JC | RR258 - Great Braxted Wall - 2 | Found it | coldrum | Another quick find. At this point we were speculating whether we might be able to take a short cut after the next cache to the car park. After some consideration, and in view of the fact that there was water between us and the car we opted to walk round. TFTC |
... | RR259X | GL6GC5V8 | RR259 - Great Braxted Wall - 3 | Found it | GeoCotch | Proper coords calculated, again, on way up to this one - fortunately sorted before we went past. Quick find by me, I think. TFTC |
... | RR259X | GL6GDZG3 | RR259 - Great Braxted Wall - 3 | Found it | coldrum | Yes, he is right....he found this one, and nice and quickly too. TFTC |
... | RR260X | GL6GC5HH | RR260 - Great Braxted Wall - 4 | Found it | GeoCotch | Dave spotted this one on approach, only the one recalculation as well! Many thanks. |
... | RR260X | GL6GDZ6W | RR260 - Great Braxted Wall - 4 | Found it | coldrum | Nice to find one by the wall. I think to be honest we both spotted the hide on approach. A prefect piece of masonry for the job. TFTC |
... | RR261X | GL6GC54B | RR261 - Great Braxted Wall - 5 | Found it | GeoCotch | Had to recalculate this one twice! Got there in the end and without too many stings or mud splatters. TFTC TB missing |
... | RR261X | GL6GDYQB | RR261 - Great Braxted Wall - 5 | Found it | coldrum | Another quick(ish) find, but not before correcting our sums twice, yes twice, near GZ! Enjoying the walk though and the weather is perfect, which is more than can be said for some of this section of the wall. TFTC |
... | RR262X | GL6GC4R8 | RR262 - Great Braxted Wall - 6 | Found it | GeoCotch | I was looking for an area awash with non trads for a caching session with Coldrum and this area is swimming with 'em. We decided on a minor Schoolfrenzy and this would be the starting point, sort of. Parked in the club car park and went off collecting clues. Minor mishap at first clue waypoint as we were searching for the micro at the start of the footpath waypoint. Today was littered with these sort of mistakes and I was blame for most, if not all of them. I managed to misread the grid for most of the caches and had to let Dave recalculate them all. This one proved to be a quick find once we realized the order we had to collect them in. RTFM, is the saying isn't it? Many thanks for the cache. |
... | RR262X | GL6GDY3F | RR262 - Great Braxted Wall - 6 | Found it | coldrum | Thought it was goinf to be a quiet caching week for me with jazzyjessups mopre or less quarantined, and GeoCotch looking after his newborn. Not so. I think Mrs GeoCotch must have wanted him out from under her feet as he had an unexpected day pass. I on the other hand only had the morning available. This was his choice of location for the start of the morning.
We parked up as suggested, and walked the outward leg collecting our information. I think GC found them all! At the far end we stopped for coffee, and (miss)calculated most of the coordinates for the return journey. After our various corrections, a quick find was made here by GC. TFTC |

Mrs_Fuller had no problems in solving this puzzle and then stashed the coordinates a Google Doc for later use. Some week later we found ourselves in the area and remembered to grab the reaming piece of the puzzle … this is as far as we got, 3 months ago! In the last 6 weeks we found ourselves struggling with some newer puzzles featuring crypto and after getting nowhere we decided that we need to go backwards and start at the beginning. In an attempt to lean new puzzle solving skills we decided there was no better place to start than with the Rally Round series After revisiting this puzzle and managing to locate the extra piece of information (I am sure we never throw anything away) we added to the completed coordinates to our Google Doc sheet. It has taken a couple of visits where we have not had time to search for the cache, however, tonight the aim was to pick up this cache. We parked up close by and took a nice walk to GZ, as we approached I pointed out a likely hide, whereby Monkey2_Fuller retrieved the cache. TNLN. SL.

... | 1111-2 | GL6HKA7X | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | kareninwb | Having found 1-1-11 I decided to look for this one as it was so close by. Nice easy find. Very busy spot. Passers by must have thought what is that strange woman doing!!!!!! |
... | RR016X | GL6GRMQR | RR016 - Chigborough Lakes | Enable Listing | Mr Crow | The cache has been moved slightly (about 12 feet) and is now a micro. The co-ordinates, location hint and GZ Checker have been updated. |

18 Sep 2011 | RR249 | GL6H6QJ4 | RR249 - Thalamorph | Found it | Denbymist | A nice stroll for a Sunday afternoon, found the cache, and the tetralogy completed. TFTC. |
19 Sep 2011 | CN | GL6HK5YR | Crow's Nest | Found it | joshandbeck | found the motherload of goodies guarded by the birdie above! took a trackable and left some sweets aswell as some dogtags, they look like rubbish but are actually limited edition |
... | E121 | GL6HK5CD | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | joshandbeck | a nice and quick cache and go, tftc |
... | E201 | GL6HK54Y | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | joshandbeck | stumbled upon this cache quite quickly, the area looked far too much of a cacher's obvious choice and found it quickly, however on a trail you don't want a huge challenge :) logged and collected ourselves a travel bug |
... | RR009 | GL6HKACZ | RR009 - Noughty One | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | All OK, but changed cache to a film pot. Schoolfrenz PathTag inside for the next visitor. |
20 Sep 2011 | CN | GL6HNJ83 | Crow's Nest | Found it | Black Dexter | WOW!! what a cache. Can't image there is anything bigger. Love the Crow. Betty Boop is on the move. |

22 Sep 2011 | 1111 | GL6J1Q55 | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | HappyCabbage | A most enjoyable cache & a splendid little walk. Many thanks. |
... | 1111-2 | GL6J1QEN | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | HappyCabbage | Found quickly - decided not to bag it last week in the pub, but visit the cache in its proper place. TFTC |
... | E117 | GL6J40WY | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | alfarrow | I'm glad it wasn't like the picture. Seemed to go to this surprisingly quickly. Log showing slight sign of damp but nothing to be concerned with. Just read log for no.17 and it is strawberries in polytunnels etc. We wondered what they could be. Last cache for today- 1.62Km. back to the church- well, as the 'crow' flies. |
... | E118 | GL6J40K9 | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | alfarrow | Found it but nearly didn't- bit confused by this as my sheet told me it was a small pot, my Pocket PC page told me it was a micro. I thought this was going to be easy(only 1.5 difficulty)- 'I won't need the hint' I did, but this only confused matters more. By sheer luck I spotted it, a pot in a camo bag. The hint was about 120 degrees out. Replaced in same place as other grass wouldn't do the job. |
... | E119 | GL6J40AP | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | alfarrow | Knew where it would be but which one? Fortunately went straight to it- down to Ray's spot on co-ords. (not sure about 20 though). Why do they bother with the chain at either end or even the steps at all. Health and safety I suppose. |
... | E120 | GL6J3YRG | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | alfarrow | Looked for this twice, on the way there and on the way back. There just didn't seem to be any obvious places to hide it- from the hint I had printed out. However,today I've just noticed that the hint has been updated from the one I had. It was slightly frustrating not having the hints on my Pocket PC files. Fortunately though I had the printed sheet, be it slightly inaccurate now. However, full marks to Ray for a well planned and presented series- even though we only did one third of them.
AND I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT A 'DRILLED MICRO' IS? |
... | E121 | GL6J4037 | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | alfarrow | Quickly found as some very noisy dogs in the area. They just seemed to bark all the way up to around cache 19 and barked all the way back again. |
... | E122 | GL6J3Z2M | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | alfarrow | Gate still locked, I didn't even try to stretch through so a walk round. I'm glad the playground was deserted. Log was awkward to extract even with my tweezers- but we got there. |
... | E201 | GL6J3ZPK | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | alfarrow | Typical, get to the area and people emerge from all directions- so had to admire the view for awhile. Found cache quickly and retrieved a 'South Africa 2010' toy. Dropped off horse TB. Didn't notice any other TB's in the box, but just checked and the toy I picked is 'Tommy`s Zakumi'TB but I didn't see any tag attached so this could still be in the cache. |
... | RR002 | GL6J70ZG | RR002 - Water Tower | Owner Maintenance | Mr Crow | Nice surprise when checking this cache. This Green Lane had been re-modelled as a bridleway. What was previous a very dodgy track beyond the water tower is now a cleared and pleasant walk - assuming you avoid the horse poo. Cache was fine. |

... | RR068 | GL6J5ZFB | RR068 - Good Knights | Found it | gillywig | FTF #2099 We were hoping this would be a landmark cache but time was against us. It was a landmark in one sense as we were beginning to think we'd lost the ability to solve the anagrams let alone the puzzles! We walked to gz in bright sunshine and it wasn't long before the cache was discovered. Then, always a tense moment, has James popped out in his lunch break? Pleased to say everything looked pristine and so was the log. Thanks for the cache and the great sense of satisfaction that always accompanies a Rally Round find. Gilly signed the log. A favorite on more than one level. |

The weather was great for this time of the year, although a little breezy in places. Really enjoyed the series and didn't see too many people around, although it's always sods law that when you do they are in the wrong place! Lots of boats out today as well. Couldn't attempt the Mini bonus, or Bonus Bonus as we hadn't been able to get all the codes, but we were able to get this one with no problems at all. Actually I was quite pleased not to do the last one as after approx 12 miles my feet were starting to feel the strain. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these series - they are appreciated, and definitley deserve a favourite here. |

... | X-OHM17X | GL6JPX32 | Old Hall Marshes - Maxi 4 | Found it | landda | Just our luck. As we approach GZ an RSPB vehicle pulls up exactly where we need to be and the driver and 1 other get out and decide to peruse the view, so we had to jog on slowly. After thinking we would have to give this a miss they got back in the vehicle and left so we backtracked to pick this one up. Also picked up Schoolfrenz Geocoin. TFTC |

This is being done as a lead-in to the Essex 100 series (May 2012) which will join Tollesbury Wick, Old Hall Marshes, Goldhanger West and Goldhanger East (unpublished) to form a continuous route of over 100 traditional caches. |
... | E324 | GL6KBNZF | Essex 100 - 3/24 - Terminus | Found it | Lennyemmy | FTF! (Joint with PuReWaRRioR69) Bit of a change of plan today, which meant me and Pip could get out and do some caching and give the dogs a run. After a day caching around Tiptree, we were just heading home when Pip said check your emails and see if any new caches have been published. I looked and this one popped up, so we quickly turned round and headed over. We parked up and I legged it, just as I approached GZ someone came round the corner smiling, so I thought we had been beaten to it, however when it was found we discovered that although it was an old log, we were the first with a recent date on, so the FTF was ours! Nice to be back in Tollesbury again. SL, TFTC :) |

We parked at the suggested co-ords, and walked down, the dogs were having a great time splashing around in the stream.
Once at GZ we spotted the cache straight away, a good start.

Really enjoying the walk with the dogs, such a warm day for the end of September.
After a little search we both spotted it at the same time, it was the plastic bag that gave it away.
On to the next.

We thought we had spotted the likely hide for this on approach, however it was in the second place we looked. Having now read through the previous logs I am not sure if that was the right place, but we replaced back as found.
Onwards.....

More water for the dogs......well Benji....to splash in, he loves the water, trouble is some of it was a bit muddy!
Arrived at GZ and whilst Pip held the dogs I went in to have a look.
I hadn't looked at the clue so was searching for several minutes, I was beginning to think it wasn't there, when I spotted it.
A fab hide, very well hidden, definately my favourite of this little series so will give it a point for them all.

We didn't think we would be able to find this one, as try as we might we were unable to work out several of the numbers, we seemed to end up with 2 possibilities for one or two of them.
Anyway, we decided to have a go using a map, the clue (that we worked out on the way) and our cacher's eyes, and we soon had the cache in hand.
We removed the offending black dustbin bag.

Another one that we had looked at but couldn't work out what to do.
So having looked at the map, solved the anagram and using our cacher's eyes, we decided to give it a go.
I said what about over there, thinking it wouldn't be and there it was. Wooooo hooooooo!
A nice little series, the dogs certainly enjoyed the walk.

... | RR068 | GL6K8298 | RR068 - Good Knights | Found it | HollynCharlie | Well what a day.......spent mostly with Jen at hospital (all is well though) finally get out after 10 hours.... we need a cache luckily Jen had solved this puzzle yesterday which she was most pleased about, after working out the hint she soon found the solution to the puzzle. Now do we have time to collect it before heading to the vets with the dogs for their boosters... well yes we have too, luckily at GZ it was a nice quick find. Super puzzle and as Jen now has to put her feet up and rest she will hopefully be solving the ones we yet have to work out. TFTC |

We've stared at the page for a while ... had lunch ... scratched our heads and stared some more! We saw mcwomble on Saturday and he has a wonderful term for our caching technique when in doubt .... gillywig conjecturing! Decided to apply the very same tool to the solution of this puzzle in desperation. This involved lots of supposing and walking the local footpaths with a cunning idea at the front of our minds! A couple of abortive attempts, then came up top trumps at the third!!!! Gr is still in shock at the determined and fearless (aka clueless!) ... and co-ord-less technique of Gilly's plans! Loud whoops could be heard for miles!! Thank you for the cache and so much more |
... | RR219 | GL6K7YKR | RR219 - Gilly Grahame Ossenfeffer Katzenellenbogen | Write note | Mr Crow | I suppose it was justice that G&G found it first using conjectural walking as it was deliberately placed in their "patch" as a tribute. A remarkable achievement, but I think only half a smiley awarded for not solving the puzzle. |

... | RR053X | GL6KH62J | RR053 - Totham Plains | Found it | gillywig | Well, what can we say? This has been the most frustrating cache we have ever tried to solve. We would almost certainly have never found it without the most generous of hint explanations ever. (Our thanks go to mcwomble and indirectly Kitty Cacher). We tried to find this without solving on two occasions and even 'looked' where we eventually found it. We feel suitably guilty and know we have cheated ourselves. We throw ourselves at the mercy of Mr Crow and hope his generosity may stretch to perhaps half a smiley /2 Oh! I(Gr) wish I'd solved it. A wobderful example of 'it's easy when you know how' We arrived at gz after RR70 and although a starry sky it was quite dark. We had our torches to hand and soon Gilly spotted the well hidden prize. SL left Gibraltar 2p coin and dropped off a TB. TFTC. A favourite for the sheer brilliance of the puzzle. This entry was edited by gillywig on Thursday, 29 September 2011 at 17:11:05 UTC. |

TNLN-Micro TFTC&S A great little tour, but not ideal for cyclo-caching. Thanks for the challenge!

08 Oct 2011 | CN | GL6NFTNV | Crow's Nest | Found it | ss dawnstar | Best cache we've found yet! TFTC |
... | CN | GL6NKFGE | Crow's Nest | Found it | grimmerscotting | What a great cache, we really enjoyed this one, very original and nice to meet the cache owner and thank him personally for all the great caches. This one gets a favourite point from me, exchanged TB's. TFTC |
... | CNB | GL6NFX8A | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | ss dawnstar | Had to do with the GS's. TFTC |
... | CNB | GL6NKFHX | Crow's Nest (Bonus) | Found it | grimmerscotting | Thanks to cache owner for pointing out this chirpy little bonus cache, only the second one I've found of these. TFTC |
... | E122 | GL6P5WP8 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | TheBowrings | Nice and easy first Geocache |
... | E303 | GL6NGNP7 | Essex 100 - 3/03 - Marsh | Found it | HollynCharlie | I decided to set off nice and early this morning to try and give the dogs a good run. So i parked up at just before 7.00am and set off down the familiar footpath. The sunrise over the clouds was well worth the early wake up as it was truy spectacular! Quick find at GZ this morning with not a soul around. I was a bit tight for time but decided to head onto 5A. TFTC!!! |
... | E314 | GL6NGPRE | Essex 100 - 3/14 - Polders | Found it | HollynCharlie | I love this stretch of coast as do the dogs. Nice fresh breeze blowing in today. I noticed something unusual had been washed in just by the sea wall. I've added a photo of it. It was a dead dolphin that looked like it had been there a while. Quick find at GZ and now to head back into the village. TFTC!!! |
... | E323 | GL6NGQ76 | Essex 100 - 3/23 - Barking | Didn't find it | HollynCharlie | Unfortunately I couldnt find this one this morning. I was a bit pushed for time so had a look at the obvious locations and then some dog walkers came into sight so I had to move on. I'll be back for another look soon! |

... | TMT05 | GL6NKF1F | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | grimmerscotting | Found the cache OK but the local farmer obviously doesn't like walkers, the footpath has been ploughed over. TFTC |
... | TMT06 | GL6NF9YR | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | ss dawnstar | TFTC |

... | TMT12 | GL6NFFKZ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | ss dawnstar | Last one before lunch in pub. TFTC |
... | TMT12 | GL6NKFF1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | grimmerscotting | Had to clear a few nettles but thankfully it was a quick find.

... | RR070 | GL6RJD82 | RR070 - Fuzzy Wuzzy | Found it | mcwomble | #2489 Solved this one eventually after a little nudge from Gilly & Grahame! Loved the clue. TFTC |
... | RR072X | GL6RJCT3 | RR072 - Alpaca Triangles | Found it | mcwomble | #2488 FTF The anagram proved problematic so I resorted to taking a leaf out of Gillywig's conjecture approach. I remembered where I seen Alpacas in the past looking for another cache and speculated the area where the cache might be. Armed with a torch this was an "in at the deep-end" reintroduction to night caching including a somewhat alarming walk on what turned out to be a far busier road than anticipated. Spotted a plausible cache site fairly quickly and began the deconstruction of the intricate camouflage. Hurrah a clean log book. Thanks for the cache puzzle, in hindsight I was 90% of the way to the solution and had the anagram solver not let me down I think I would have had this one solved before searching for it. TFTC |

Parked up and tackled this from the marina end. Another beautiful evening and fantastic walk. I can't express enough how much I love this stretch of Essex coastline. Can't wait to push the buggy round soon! Quick find at GZ whist trying to stop the hounds from going for a dip! TFTC and we'll be back for the last one left unfound soon! |

Enjoying the new GPS and although we found the Anagram unsolvable until we arrived at the final destination this was a lot of fun and we'll make it one of our favourites. Thanks for all the puzzles, now there's always something to do on a rainy afternoon. This entry was edited by denarius on Saturday, 15 October 2011 at 18:10:09 UTC. |
... | E101 | GL6Q5RNM | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Didn't find it | andyandchris | We decided to do the Goldhanger West loop as it was such a lovely day. Having forgotten to download all the coords, we used the rhyming hints as originally set, but we didn't have any "panic" envelopes. We were sure we were at the right place for this cache, but despite a bit of searching, we could not find it. |
... | E102 | GL6Q5RZX | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | andyandchris | After failing to find no.1, we continued as directed in the poem and were successful with this cache. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL6Q5TBT | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | andyandchris | Another successful find using just the poem. |
... | E104 | GL6Q5TNV | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | andyandchris | Exactly where the poem said. TNLNSL. TFTC. |
... | E105 | GL6Q5VAQ | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | andyandchris | Using the dead reckoning method from the poem, we arrive at GZ at exactly 352m, but then got confused by the hint. While one searched by the fence, the other found the cache where they thought it would be. TFTC. |
... | E106 | GL6Q5VNE | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | andyandchris | We nearly gave up on this one, as we were following the track and did not spot the kissing gate. As we set off towards the next cache, we saw the gate and found the cache. TFTC. |
... | E107X | GL6Q5W8A | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | andyandchris | Found exactly where the directions in the poem sent us. TFTC. |
... | E108X | GL6Q5WWF | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Didn't find it | andyandchris | Didn't even attempt to search for this cache, as there was a fishing muggle sitting about 10m from where we thought the cache should be. |
... | E109 | GL6Q5XFC | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | andyandchris | First we searched in vain, then thought about what the poem said, and crossed the road, where the cache was found without a problem. |
... | E110 | GL6Q5Y34 | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | andyandchris | Another cache found without resort to GPS thanks to the excellent poetic clues. Decided to take a break after finding this, and sat on the sea wall to eat our lunch of home-made soup and watch the activity on the river. TFTC. |
... | E111 | GL6Q5YR0 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Didn't find it | andyandchris | As noted in previous log, the gate has gone, and so no sign of the cache. Probably needs to be temporarily disabled. |
... | E112 | GL6Q5ZJR | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | andyandchris | We searched everywhere for this cache and couldn't find it. Then a man from one of the nearby caravans came over and asked what we were doing. We explained about geocaching, and he produced something from his pocket and said "Is this what you are looking for?" and explained he had found it earlier and wondered what it was. After a pleasant discussion, we signed the log and replaced the cache in its proper place. TFTC. |
... | E113 | GL6Q626D | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | andyandchris | Navigating just from the directions in the poems, we missed this because we were too busy looking at the view, and had to walk back a few hundred metres to get it. Then soon found. TFTC. |
... | E114 | GL6Q62H6 | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | andyandchris | Tide was high so the causeway was underwater, but that did not affect our caching. Cache was quickly located using the excellent poem directions. |
... | E115 | GL6Q6331 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | andyandchris | Another successful find, although there was a slight delay while we checked the sluice on the opposite side of the path. TFTC. |
... | E116 | GL6Q639C | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Didn't find it | andyandchris | Searched around but couldn't find this. |
... | E117 | GL6Q63N5 | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | andyandchris | After failing to find no. 16, we were pleased to locate this one quite rapidly, but then had to wait for muggles on the path to get out of sight before we replaced it. TFTC. |
... | E118 | GL6Q63ZR | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Didn't find it | andyandchris | Located the tree, but no sign of the cache. |
... | E119 | GL6Q64FG | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | andyandchris | Found easily after scrambling down the bank. What is the point of the metal structure if you cannot use it??? TFTC. |
... | E120 | GL6Q64XC | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Didn't find it | andyandchris | Did a cursory search without success but then had to move on because of muggles with a car and boat trailer at the slipway. |
... | E121 | GL6Q654N | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Didn't find it | andyandchris | Another one not found - not sure we were at the right tree. |
... | E122 | GL6Q6664 | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | andyandchris | Final cache find of the afternoon, 16th out of 23 in this series. The circuit took us about 5 hours to complete, including break for lunch and some backtracking, but all easy walking. Thanks for a great series of caches. |

... | PC1 | GL6PZ9Q7 | PolyCache 1 | Found it | denarius | Found this one without the use of the GPS as we had only downloaded a 10 mile radius of our home and unfortunately for us this was just beyond its scope. We set out on the off chance but with the help of the great hint we were able to track it down. Pleased with ourselves we were able to continue to the next. TFTC |
... | PC2 | GL6PZAAG | PolyCache 2 | Found it | denarius | Soon had number two in our hand and after a brief pause to do a few calculations we were on our way to number three. TFTC |
... | PC3 | GL6PZB8Z | PolyCache 3 | Found it | denarius | Saw a beautiful place nearby to the GZ which fitted the clue perfectly, but to my suprise it wasn't there. Looked a bit further and there it was.. Thanks |
... | PC4 | GL6PZC5H | PolyCache 4 | Found it | denarius | Interesting anagram to this cache, it sounded a bit odd. When we arrived all became clear. A nicely hidden cache, thanks. |

... | RR015 | GL6PYY2Y | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | denarius | As we approached the GZ we saw a few folk gathered. Soon realised they must be cachers too, and indeed they were. Had a lovely long chat with The Pazzers. It was nice to meet you and will hopefully see you again on one of our future trips down this way. Another good puzzle and nice hide, thanks for all the effort you have put in. |
... | RR022X | GL6PZE0N | RR022 - PolyCache 5 | Found it | denarius | A good puzzle this one and we were pleased to pick it up today.

... | RR071X | GL6Q0R9Z | RR071 - A Bad Sine | Found it | gillywig | No problem with this puzzle. (OK I(Gr) has no excuse) No gps so we thought we'd approach from the North. Not a good idea as it turned out, so the southern approach it would have to be. Not the most used footpath at the start! Trickle negotiated, now where's the entrance? (see photo). Lack of gps could be a severe disadvantage here, but underterred "onwards" was the cry. Get to the far side then 'walk' parallel, at the required distance from the fence, was the plan. Ha! Gilly had drawn the spoiler, so we niavely thought it would be easy. After much zig-zagging we reached the far side and 'paralleling' began. Gilly follwed the less straight route and unmathematically she proved it to be shorter! Much self congratulating when we reached the spot, but had we come this far only to fail at the final hurdle. Fortunately not! Found after a few anxious moments. Another great Schoolfrenz cache. (Not to be missed) SL left two soldiers (see photo) TFTC. Now, the not unconsiderable, "find the route to the car"! |
... | RR072X | GL6Q098A | RR072 - Alpaca Triangles | Found it | gillywig | Accurately constructed triangles and calculations completed to an unnecessary level of accuracy, all to no avail! Got nowhere with the puzzle anagram so resulted in Gillywig conjecturing with the location anagram. We were so pleased to find and love the 'OS location'. SL congrats to Mc-jecturing James tn left 10 florint coin. TFTC. Carried on past the alpacas to seek our next find. Thanks to the cache owner for the enlightenment regarding the solution. Wobderful final step. This entry was edited by gillywig on Sunday, 16 October 2011 at 08:34:45 UTC. |

... | CN | GL6QWHN9 | Crow's Nest | Found it | xlive2 | Didnt plan on finding this but as it was nearby we decided to go for it. Amazing cache. Great idea. Left a few goodies and picked up a TB. STL. TFTC. |
19 Oct 2011 | E101 | GL6R651A | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | alfarrow | Stopped by this on return home. Had a look but couldn't see anything, had a feel and there it was. Initially thought it was Velcro but just a strong magnet or two. |
... | E116 | GL6R64HZ | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | alfarrow | A long walk from No.20 without a find (having already collected them. Choice of cache positions (clue didn't seem to make much sense) but not needed, and there it was doubly hidden. |
... | E120 | GL6R62DE | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | alfarrow | Return visit, but hadn't planned to redo this section but decided to walk along the sea wall, as the tide was in. So 1, 2, 3 etc. will have to wait to some later date. Now, what was the clue for this- having only got the old one which didn't help last time. Fortunately retrieved from the memory and cache in hand. So that is what a 'drilled micro' is. I thought mcwomble calls these a bison tube? |
... | RR072X | GL6R084M | RR072 - Alpaca Triangles | Found it | HollynCharlie | We have been looking at this onand off since its release but other events meant we have been occupied elsewhere. As is always the case with us and RR's we'd solved he anagram and then ignored the obvious and gone off at a bizarre tangent. Luckily Gilly and Graham gave me a nudge and I (simon) cracked it tonight quickly once the right level of accuracy was sorted out. Quick find at GZ tonight. TFTC!!! |
20 Oct 2011 | CN | GL6R53CX | Crow's Nest | Found it | denarius | What a fabulous cache and so full, great fun having a rummage through. It has to be a favourite, thanks for placing it here. |
... | RR001 | GL6R500X | RR001 - Wilkin's Grove | Found it | denarius | We do enjoy a good Soduko puzzle, nice to have a cache at the end of it, thanks. |
... | RR002 | GL6R56R5 | RR002 - Water Tower | Found it | denarius | Last cache of the day for us and a pleasant walk. Thanks for all the puzzles and the caches. |
... | RR005 | GL6R52P6 | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Found it | denarius | Arrived at GZ but it took us a little while to locate the cache. Realised that I had the wrong solution to the anagram...oh dear. Got there in the end. TFTC |
... | RR011X | GL6R51WE | RR011 - HomeBase | Found it | denarius | We struggled with this puzzle, what seemed obvious was clearly not. In the end we used all methods available to track it down and it paid off. Nice hide and one we are very glad to have logged. Thanks |
... | RR039 | GL6R4Y1A | RR039 - Daddy Crow | Found it | denarius | A pleasant walk to this one and good to find the cache, thanks |
... | RR040 | GL6R4XJZ | RR040 - Mummy Crow | Found it | denarius | Another good puzzle and a nice cache, thanks for putting them here. |
... | RR041 | GL6R4XA1 | RR041 - Baby Crow | Found it | denarius | First of the day and after working on this series awhile it was good to finally sign the log. Thanks. |
... | RR042 | GL6R4Z1V | RR042 - Grandpa Crow | Found it | denarius | On our walk to find this cache we were greated by a flock of Guinea Fowl enjoying a bit of sunshine, an unusual sight but very pleasant. Another good puzzle, glad to have finally signed the log. TFTC |
... | RR043 | GL6R4YC8 | RR043 - Grandma Crow | Found it | denarius | The puzzles in this series seem to be getting harder as the members of the family are getting more mature. Nice one, thanks |
... | RR246 | GL6R5628 | RR246 - The Nearest FarAway Place | Found it | denarius | When we arrived at the GZ the cache had obviously been muggled and the first thing we spotted was the lid. Searched a while and found the box, the log and a pathtag scattered over quite a distance. Reassembled but removed the pathtag for safety. We will contact the owner with the details. Left hidden and as complete as we could make it. |
21 Oct 2011 | 1111 | GL6RB125 | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Write note | Mr Crow | Caches 1-11-11 and 11-11-11 now in place. Guess when they will be published.

... | PC1 | GL6R96GF | PolyCache 1 | Found it | kareninwb | First cache of the day. I had borrowed a friends GPS as I was considering getting one myself and wanted to see what the advantages were over the android phone I normally use. The GPS took me staight to the cache in an area where I normally have very poor signal so certainly an advantage. However, I missed having a satellite view. Collected the numbers needed for the next cache and off I went. |
... | PC2 | GL6R97B1 | PolyCache 2 | Found it | kareninwb | Got to the location but spent too long looking for a much more complicated hide than it actually was. With the remaining numbers in hand and a bit of working out it was off to PolyCache 3. |
... | PC3 | GL6R97PN | PolyCache 3 | Found it | kareninwb | GPS working well and took me straight to thr location. Nice quick find. |
... | PC4 | GL6R98Q6 | PolyCache 4 | Found it | kareninwb | Struggled with this one as the GPS took me in the right direction but in the adjacent field and when I realsed I'd have to cross private property I thought it best to retrace my steps. Got there in the end. Very well disguised hide but a good clue so found it after a bit of a rummage around. |
... | RR065X | GL6RCZDV | Rally Round 65 aka Leg-ability 4 | Found it | HollynCharlie | I spent 10 mins searching for the location before hitting the right spot. Couldn't get the right co-ords for SF checker but was confident i was in the right spot. Popped out this afternoon between feeds for a quick cache and dash and pleased to find the cache quickly. TFTC!!! |

... | E324 | GL6RG8AR | Essex 100 - 3/24 - Terminus | Found it | denarius | Our last for today and we have thoroughly enjoyed our walk. Thanks for bringing us here. |
... | RR067 | GL6RE2DQ | RR067 - Drapers Farm | Found it | gillywig | FTF The new updated clue added nothing. Gr thought he'd solved the location anagram so we thought a little conjecturing was in order. No co-ords, no gps, well let's go look. Wandered a little then for some inexplicable(to me Gr) reason, Gilly took a detour and well what do you know? Pure conjecturing as to where the CO would jog! Stunned is the only way to describe the way we felt, however embarresed at not solving we still haven't stopped smiling. Five weeks unfound = impossible puzzle, Conjecture = lucky find! SL TFTC made our day! |

27 Oct 2011 | CN | GL6TN5DQ | Crow's Nest | Found it | JapVonKeiller&Poppy | Wow great cache! Only had small items to exchange so exchanged mini puzzle and pencil sharpener for nail files with the view to coming back with bigger item next time in this area. Was great after a disappointing none find :-) |
... | RR003X | GL6TP7TD | RR003 - Herringbone | Found it | denarius | This one fooled us a bit a we were barking up the wrong tree, I think the GPS was beginning to flag a bit. We took the little Ladybug gold ingot and we will help it on its way as soon as we can. Thanks for another great puzzle and cache. |

28 Oct 2011 | E117 | GL6VNYBP | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | HelennTribe | On the day of the big Goldhanger event on arriving here and hearing this one was trouble we opted to not look for it and keep on running....our lead was too good to lose and so it has been on the watchlist ever since.
For too long now it keeps popping into the inbox that someone has found it, so today was the day to sort it out. We parked at Mill Beach and had a lovely 3.5 mile round trip. The sun was shining, boats were sailing the kids were happy. As we walked along they retold tales of the day which was lovely that they remembered so much and pointed out where other caches on the route were (had to marvel at their memories). On arrivng at GZ my GPS still had 13ft to go and as I stood inwardly cringing as to where to look number three shouts 'Found it!'. Big relief sigh from me lots of praise for her.
It was a lovely day for the walk unfortunatley it did not wear them out but we were happy to now have a smiley on the map.

31 Oct 2011 | E101 | GL6VTHNA | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | coldrum | Caching with Geocotch today. The primary reason for our visit to Essex was to collect more solved Rally Rounr puzzles. However we were distracted by the nearby Letterbox hybrids, and also Goldhanger West, resulting in little time at the end of the day for the puzzles.
Parked very close here, and a quick find for GeoCotch although I detected a sharp intake of breath and suspect he got a little prickled in the process. TFTC |
... | E101 | GL6VXAVD | Essex 100 - 1/01 - Bus | Found it | GeoCotch | Afer investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
A quick find here, Dave was right, blood was drawn! TFTC |
... | E102 | GL6VTJ1N | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | coldrum | Steve was on his way down the correct path whilst I was still figuring our which was was west (yes we were following the instructions)! A quick find here. There is wind in the air. TFTC |
... | E102 | GL6VXB6Q | Essex 100 - 1/02 - Blind | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Dave wasn't keen on joining me on the correct route? Excellent kestrel kites around here. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL6VTJ5R | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | coldrum | Another quick find before we cross the field. TFTC |
... | E103 | GL6VXBER | Essex 100 - 1/03 - Fiddle | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
My knees are already suffering today, not a lot of walking recently, but a quick find anyway. TFTC |
... | E104 | GL6VTK53 | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | coldrum | This one easily caused us the longest search of the series. All the more gaulling to read the previous Solly log stating that he's seen it quickly from the other side. Geocotch went to the "other side" and spotted nothing! Meanwhile I was probing other possibilities ever deeper and deeper when Steve redeemed himself, spotting the cache from the correct side. Retrieval was another story. However local objects assisted Steve in his task and the job was soon done. TFTC |
... | E104 | GL6VXYER | Essex 100 - 1/04 - Wash | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered. By far the longest search of the series but not quite the day. We found approximate GZ easily but then made more, or less of the hint than we should. Once spotted, retrieval was almost as long winded as this log and I nearly got myself stuck - very unorthodox approach. I think this cost us two RR searches! TFTC |
... | E105 | GL6VTKH8 | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | coldrum | I found the cache quickly according to hint but not quite where I expected. Replaced maybe a foot away (according to hint) where I thought it should be and provided a little cover. TFTC |
... | E105 | GL6W4B3P | Essex 100 - 1/05 - Lonely | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered. Yet another quick find for Dave, it will be my turn again soon, whilst I stood around looking cool (and handsome) . TFTC |
... | E106 | GL6VTM1K | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | coldrum | A very specific and "to the point" hint. GeoCotch could feel the cache but it took some more dextrous fingers to carry out the extraction. A fine magnet to be sure. TFTC |
... | E106 | GL6W4B6Z | Essex 100 - 1/06 - Rook | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
I was in danger of pushing this one out of reach with my podgy digits, Dave came to the rescue - at least I found it! TFTC |
... | E107X | GL6VTMC0 | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | coldrum | Finding the cache was fairly straightforward. Understanding the navigational instructions was some thing else! However we made a good path to GZ for the quick find. TFTC |
... | E107X | GL6W4B8X | Essex 100 - 1/07 - Gravel | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Had some trouble with the route to this one, I had my say and we were soon at GZ where Dave came up trumps, again............. TFTC |
... | E108X | GL6VTMFF | Essex 100 - 1/08 - Fishing | Found it | coldrum | A quick find. TFTC |

We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
We should have made a mild diversion on the way here to grab the bench cache but somehow missed it. And again there's Dave with the quick find. TFTC |
... | E109 | GL6VTMR0 | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | coldrum | A minor contortion was required for the retrieval, but the cache was quickly found. TFTC |
... | E109 | GL6W4BET | Essex 100 - 1/09 - Barred | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Some back scratching, not of the mutual variety, was needed to retrieve this one, Yes, it was Dave. TFTC |
... | E110 | GL6VTNJG | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | coldrum | I recognised the area from a previous drive past when I had stopped for the cache, realised that I had no hint with me and also that it was part of a series which I would ultimately return for, and drove on. Today we were on that series and with the hint in our posession making for the quick find. Now on to the sea wall. TFTC |
... | E110 | GL6W4BVB | Essex 100 - 1/10 - Pub | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
A ready made made hide and another super magnet. Big smiles from me as I can smell the dimethyl sulfide and feel the wind on my face - Wunderbar! TFTC |
... | E111 | GL6VTRA2 | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | coldrum | We had an uneasy feeling as we approached and noticed two men diligently beavering away on their engineering activities in persuit of gate maintenance. However they were engrossed in their labours, ignoring us as we figured out the fact that the cache had been moved and where it was now gidden. There followed a quick find. TFTC |
... | E111 | GL6W4C5N | Essex 100 - 1/11 - Beach | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
The two artisans couldn't have been less interested in the two weirdos poking around at the bottom of the steps and carried on flattening the flood gate runners. A quick find and slow, clumsy replacement from me. TFTC |
... | E111A | GL6VTTFD | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | coldrum | GeoCotch stopped here on our route around the series. Apparently he had a cache here on his GPSr...I didn't. Checking logs we realised that there was an issue but also that a temporary had been placed. We had no hint, and pondered on where they would place it. A few minutes later GC had the cache in his hands. Shame the original has gone missing due to engineering, but nice to have a temporary here for the time being. TFTC |
... | E111A | GL6W4CCD | Essex 100 - 1/11A - Escape | Found it | GeoCotch | "Curiouser and curiouser" said Coldrum. One of us had a cache here and one didn't - a cache was found and log signed but we're not sure it should have been. Happy to swap these finds to notes if necessary. Lovely walk along here, I'd like to come up for a run - a slow one obviously. TFTC |
... | E112 | GL6VTXQA | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | coldrum | I wasn't sure what the hint meant but GC had no trouble. The placement surprised me, though the cache is in fine form. Good magnet for one of these. TFTC |
... | E112 | GL6W4CKY | Essex 100 - 1/12 - Wall | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Dave was convinced it wouldn't be where it was, but it was - obviously. Good use of an extra magnet as the usual ones tend to be weak. TFTC |
... | E113 | GL6VTXZP | Essex 100 - 1/13 - Rusty | Found it | coldrum | A quick find according to hint once the local had passen on (figuratively) with his dog. TFTC |

We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
A quick find once we had finished the obligatory weather related small talk with a dog walker. TFTC |
... | E114 | GL6VTY3Y | Essex 100 - 1/14 - Osea | Found it | coldrum | Another hands and knees job, but quickly executed and we're on our way. TFTC |

We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Admired the roof top gardens on the lodges as we walked along to this one, bit nippy up there today I'd have thought? Dave did the crawling about and me the admin. Onwards TFTC |
... | E115 | GL6VV0B3 | Essex 100 - 1/15 - Sluice | Found it | coldrum | A quick find. It is windy and we are hungry. We need shelter and food. Press on. TFTC |

We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Back off the sea wall here and another find for Dave. Food is on our minds. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL6VV0ME | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | coldrum | Bit of a diversion from our path with a view. A different cache too. TFTC |
... | E116 | GL6W4H16 | Essex 100 - 1/16 - Rock | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
No problems here and a find for me, I think? TFTC |
... | E117 | GL6VV10A | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | coldrum | Finally we decided to sit on the bank facing the sun. A quiet and sheltered spot. Lunch and coffee were taken. Then on for a quick find according to hint. TFTC |
... | E117 | GL6W4X8T | Essex 100 - 1/17 - Grass | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Luncheon first. Back down the wall and a fairly quick fingertip search throws up a cache. TFTC |
... | E118 | GL6VV3R7 | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | coldrum | We read the hint, we looked and we found nothing. Then we noticed the DNF.....but also the woners maintenance visit. We searched a little wider and thankfully soon had the cache in hand. Thanks. |
... | E118 | GL6W4XGP | Essex 100 - 1/18 - Hawthorn | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Took a few moments to dig this one up after first seeing DNFs and then being buoyed up by maintenance logs!! TFTC |
... | E119 | GL6VV42A | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | coldrum | Another one of those fine magnets. A quick find which we were thankfull for as things above began to cloud over, and we could see rain in the distance to the south east. TFTC |
... | E119 | GL6W4XT4 | Essex 100 - 1/19 - Instep | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
A quick find for me, woohoo! I love the fact that these open sided stairways have pointless chains and no entry signs. Communication from Kent tells us that rain has just left them heading north, we turn south to see a big grey cloud heading our way - will we outrun it? TFTC |
... | E120 | GL6VV4FD | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | coldrum | This was the other one which we had to work for. We read the hint (more than once) but we didn't understand it fully and were searching for something else. Eventually found just inches from the first place I'd searched some time earlier. TFTC |
... | E120 | GL6W4XZG | Essex 100 - 1/20 - Bounds | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Big mix up with drilled micro and the hint, meant we were looking for something far different - gave us our second longest search of the day but we found it. Onwards. TFTC |
... | E121 | GL6VV4M0 | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | coldrum | Not sure I understand the "camo" here, but we did find the cache fairly quickly, thanks. |
... | E121 | GL6W4Y4A | Essex 100 - 1/21 - Channel | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
We both spent a fair amount of time grubbing around on the floor until a barely muffled oath reached my ears - Dave had found the blighter a little higher than expected. TFTVC |
... | E122 | GL6VV60V | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | coldrum | GC was here ahead of me and had the cache in his hands as I arrived. A perfect hide for this type.
This brings an end to a fine series for us. Some effort was required to ensure we had all the correct documention with us, and carrying paperwork was a bit of a nuisance given the wind. However the caches were varied but well placed, the coords good, and the hints very helpful indeed. Without them we would have spent a good deal more time here. As it is we have eaten too far into our puzzle cache time, but we've had a good walk. Arrived back at the car after 3 hr 20 mins having covered 10.9 Km according to the Garmin. Favourite here for the series. Thanks Schoolfrendz. |
... | E122 | GL6W4YKC | Essex 100 - 1/22 - Heart | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
Took a few minutes for the GPSr to settle down as I circumnavigated the play area. Had to hang over the gate to make the retrieve but the cache was easily grabbed. A very enjoyable series, thanks for the hard work involved and the amazing maintenance missions you continually make. Just shy of 3 and a half hours, which would have been much longer had Dave not done some admirable admin. Excellent stuff, now, how many of those Rally Rounds have we time for? |
... | E201 | GL6VV4XB | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | coldrum | Slightly off the beaten track again, which makes for a safe hide. GC had this in no time although he did have to exercise some different muscles. TFTC |
... | E201 | GL6W4Y84 | Essex 100 - 2/01 - Copse | Found it | GeoCotch | After investing much time in solving RR puzzles we were expecting to collect around the 20 mark today, however we were sent astray by a couple of Letterbox and this trad series. We made good time around Goldhanger but our rally around the Rally Rounds suffered.
A nice big cache in a big hide. I didn't see the potholing attribute on the cache page tho'?! Wet knees. Many thanks |
... | RR009 | GL6VV6TY | RR009 - Noughty One | Found it | coldrum | Our caching day is almost over time wise and we are just starting the target caches of our expedition to Essex. Some time sonce we solved most of these, but I think this one was down to GeoCotch. A quick find and on to the next. TFTC |
... | RR009 | GL6W4ZGA | RR009 - Noughty One | Found it | GeoCotch | Down to business at last, almost the end of our trip and we are finally looking for Rally Rounds. A surprisingly quick find here and back to the car to navigate to the next nearest. TFTC and puzzle. |
... | RR017 | GL6VV8EQ | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | coldrum | Blimey did nwe spend some time here. My notes had teh calculated coords and also the adjusted ones. Garmins contained the adjusted ones and we had a good search. Plenty of things fitted the hint which Steve gradually worked out on location. We had a good look. Then we doubted ourselves and plotted the unadjusted coords and realised they were also on the path. Off we went, and there followed another search of suitable candidates.
I am accustomed to making mistakes with coords, typos in the documentation, input errors and as a result I had at least double checked my preparation at the time. We returned to our original coords, searched a little wider and Steve came up trumps. This was the most pleasing find of the day especially as we now have to set off back to Kent after only 3 RR finds. The others will have to wait - we shall be back. A memorable cache and a favourite from me. |
... | RR017 | GL6W511Y | RR017 - Gossip | Found it | GeoCotch | We had to work hard for this one. Straight to GZ where we eventually worked out the anagram and went to work on the wrong hint item. At this point I started looking at logs for a different cache and decided we were in the wrong place. As this had an offset we started debating that we may not have added the coords on or may even added them twice. One permutation gave us a likely looking spot further down the path. A thorough search of that area left us feeling dejected so we walked back to the car passing our original GZ and a final look at a slighly wider area threw the cache straight up! A cache well earnt but unfortunately our last RR and SF of the day. Many thanks for all those we got to, we shall be back. |
... | RR029 | GL6VQ636 | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | infinson | Found this by accident walking along the footpath and had just said what a good place for a cache to be placed, I then looked down and found this one. Haven't solved the puzzle not even looked at it. Just lucky this time. TFTC |

... | RR029 | GL6WZWW7 | RR029 - Kelvedon South | Found it | XerScott | great little cache found by accident on fincaches birthday was great fun |
... | RR063 | GL6VV77G | RR063 - Off Set | Found it | coldrum | Arriving at GZ, Steve recognised the spot from his earlier research and had a moment while he pondered whether we should now be doing one of those Schoolfredz offsets, or maybe look for a hydrant. Meanwhile I uncovered our target. Very, very nice. A favourite from me here. TFTC |
... | RR063 | GL6W4ZQD | RR063 - Off Set | Found it | GeoCotch | Recognized GZ on approach but then wasn't convinced it was GZ, should we be doing something else? Meanwhile, Dave had found the cache and was busy signing the log. Fantastic hide. TFTC |

... | 1111-3 | GL6VXZR4 | 1-11-11 (River) | Found it | HollynCharlie | We saw this one come out this morning but unfortunately work stopped me getting out to this until about 11.30. Parked at the suggested co-ords and followed the route out into the fields. Got to GZ and could see ground sign that I wasn't the first here this morning. A lovely tranquil spot and pleased to see this sort of path being used! Quickly found the cache and saw a familiar name as FTF although slightly off his normal FTF patch As I walked back I passed 3 ladies on the path who may have been cachers as well. As I came out of the farm I also spotted someone parking at the entrance and heading off down the path so quite a busy cache this morning I think! Took GC to move on. TFTC!!! |

... | 1111-3 | GL6W7HQ6 | 1-11-11 (River) | Found it | gillywig | Happy coincidence that Gr had a half day. Quick prep and off we set. Took advice and aproached from the North.

Looking forward to 11-11-11 and 12-12-12? |

Found reasonably easily but the path to the cache location was very muddy and slippery - fell over on the way to the cache and on the way back to the car. Changed into more sensible shoes for my next cache. |

... | RR073 | GL6WG092 | RR073 - Prime Evil | Found it | gillywig | FTF With a short break together between our different work patterns, we had just put on a spot of lunch and sat down to browse the emails. Noticed a new RR and opened the cache page, wondering whether it called for a solution, days and nights of pondering what it was all about or the need for a gillywig conjecture! A couple of exploratory ideas and we had a method which gave sensible co-ords. Consulting Google Earth, the location seemed very plausible .... so we quickly put our lunch between 2 pieces of bread to eat on the way and set off in haste. With the anagram solution, we were pleased to see a likely candidate as we parked and it soon gave up the prize! A beautiful, pristine, clean logbook! SL at 14.32 Took keyring, left Ickworth badge & Spanish 50 cents. TFTC Another great idea for a puzzle from the devious mind of schoolfrenz. |

Where I work, Berkshire, a FTF will be gone in 10 or 15 mins every single time, so it was nice to pick this one up 48hrs or so after it went live. Now that's county living!
Lovely walk, its November for gawds sake and I have a T shirt on!

10 Nov 2011 | RR013 | GL6XTG3K | RR013 - Moduko | Found it | denarius | Tricky puzzle, we are rather partial to a Sudoku now and then but this one was a whole new game. TFTC |
... | RR016X | GL6XTJCE | RR016 - Chigborough Lakes | Found it | denarius | Drove us mad for a while but got there in the end. Glad to finally get our hands on the cache, thanks. |
... | RR018 | GL6XTFAF | RR018 - Sheepcoates | Found it | denarius | At least the rain makes it more pleasant to be indoors doing puzzles. Glad to finally get a solution to this one. Thanks for the cache. |
... | RR021X | GL6XTEH3 | Rallye Runde 21 aka Goat Lodge | Found it | denarius | After the rain this was a bit of a muddy path but the cache was soon in hand. Another good puzzle, thanks. |
... | RR024 | GL6XTGQV | RR024 - Two Duck Raid | Found it | denarius | I was making this one a lot harder than it should have been until the other half spotted where I had been going wrong. Clever as always, thanks. |
... | RR035 | GL6XTM8D | RR035 - Board Game 1 | Found it | denarius | This was good fun and although it took us a while, we enjoyed it a lot. I think we will have to add this to our favourite list. Thanks again for a lovely day picking up the fruits of all that time puzzling. |
... | RR044 | GL6XTDK4 | RR044 - Ms Kitty | Found it | denarius | Just once in a while it's nice to find a puzzle that's not to taxing and this filled the bill nicely. Thanks for the cache. |
... | RR045 | GL6XTHWV | RR045 - Board Game 2 | Found it | denarius | A very clever idea for a puzzle and a great feeling when it finally falls into place. We enjoyed the walk to this one with all the disused machinery, fascinating. Nice cache, thanks. |
... | RR057X | GL6XTKKR | RR057 - Phoney | Found it | denarius | Very clever and amusing. Loved this, where do you get all of your ideas from? Nice cache, thanks again. |

... | RR072X | GL6XTNA3 | RR072 - Alpaca Triangles | Found it | denarius | A strange thing happened today, in our search for different cache we happened upon this one by chance. With a strange mix of elation and guilt we soon had the log signed and were on our way again, vowing we will now try and solve the puzzle working backwards. Thanks again. |
11 Nov 2011 | 1111 | GL6XY992 | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | chequerdog | Quick find, all safe and secure despite it's lack of cammo! Dropped a few goodies and 'Splattered Stan & Powder the Polar Bear' TB, TFTC |
... | 1111-2 | GL6XY8JX | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | chequerdog | Followed the co-ords to find the container lying in the open, duly signed and luck had it, GSPLEO appeared and advised where it should be hidden. Stood and had a good old chat with him in a very odd place! TFTC |
... | 1111-3 | GL6XYA9C | 1-11-11 (River) | Found it | chequerdog | Walked to this one from 1-1-11 alongside the A12 which was made easier as we were dogless. On entering the stableyard we were followed by a goat which was even luckier that we didn't have the two boys. Grabbed monkey looking TB and dropped off 'Charlton Athletic' TB, TFTC |

... | 1111-4 | GL6XY7KD | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | chequerdog | Were waiting for this one and the opportunity to do the other three allied caches. Despite our preparedness we were third to find behind H&B and GSPLEO logging it at 10:15. TFTC |
... | 1111-4 | GL6XYXN3 | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | the_fullers | After yesterdays fun and games with the car I thought I’d better get the car looked at before heading off to todays cache. When the garage eventually called to say all was ok I headed straight out hoping for a FTF but at 12.30 it was looking unlikely. Arriving at GZ the cache was quickly located and in hand, my word though how strong is that magnet? Just as I thought no FTF not even a second but 4th. So with Monkey Fuller number 5 in one hand cache in the other signed the log and replaced. Now to finish the series… TFTC! |
... | 1111-4 | GL6Y022Y | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | gspleo | With a 28 mile drive and a miscalculation of the parking coords being first was never likely to happen. Sure enough as I approached GZ a familiar looking car was parked nearby. Well done Helen. Second to find at 9.55am. Good to meet Helen near GZ and have a chat. On returning to the car saw a couple of people acting suspiciously near 11-1-11, nice to meet chequerdog and have another chat. We could have had our own "mini meet" This becoming more like chatting than caching . Thanks Ray for the cache and the series |

... | 1111-4 | GL6YRJ9P | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | Lennyemmy | I wanted to get this one on the day, so a quick text to Pip and we arranged to meet after work and grab it.
Tapped the co-ords in the sat-nav and off we went.
Arrived at GZ and soon realised where we needed to be, and by the time I had grabbed the torch Pip had the cache in hand, very strong magnets indeed!
A nice hide, and I'm glad we did this one on 11-11-11.

... | RR044 | GL6YF6NB | RR044 - Ms Kitty | Found it | the_fullers | We had headed out today in with the aim of visiting Church Micro 1292, however, after starting in the wrong place all together we back tracked up the road but were still unable to locate all of the required information Defeated and heading home we were passing this cache and decided that today was a good day to stop in and visit this cache as we have had the coordinates for quite some time. Not a great place to park but we stopped nearby before heading to GZ. A simple enough route and the hide is obvious enough to GeoKind, so much so we had to hold Monkey4_Fuller back whilst some muggles passed by. There was no sign of the reported TB but we dropped a GC that we had had for far too long. Took nothing. SL. TFTC. |
14 Nov 2011 | 1111-2 | GL6YRQGT | 11-1-11 (Stairs) | Found it | tam9433 | Nice quick find, got some funny looks as i slid down from the hide. by a couple in a car who slowed down when they seen me. TFTC |

15 Nov 2011 | 1111 | GL6Z0ECX | 1-1-11 (Bridge) | Found it | denarius | Apart from the obvious noise it was a very pleasant walk to this cache and the scenery suprisingly pretty on this sunny day. Took some pictures of the river before finding this great cache. Dropped off the JFK Travel Bug in the hope it can be moved on soon. We'll make this one a favourite. TFTC |

... | RR058 | GL71HY36 | RR058 - Little Weeeeeeed | Write note | mcwomble | I've been feeling guilty about this cache for a while now, as having been the only finder so far and the old cache container having gone walkies, I've worried that perhaps I re-hid it too well. As I was driving past (sort of) I paid a second visit. The ground levels had changed somewhat however excavations proved that the original hiding place was devoid of the the rather fitting cache container. As least I'd not inadvertently buried it! |

... | TMT12 | GL70NRMW | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | kareninwb | Trying to break my record of number of days caching in a row so, although it was dark by the time I got back from work, Louise and I went out to see if we could find at least one cache. Found this one by torch light. TFTC. |
... | TMT12 | GL71J03P | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. She is trying to break her longest streak of 10 consecutive days with a find, so although it was dark we needed to locate at least one cache! Found relatively quickly, with the use of a torch. TFTC. |

Once at gz the cache we spotted from the other side and i retrieved it, t4tc. Made the mistake of walking through the farmyard on the way back and we were approached by an angry young farmer! Stick the the footpath on this one! Picked up a tb. |
... | 1111-3 | GL70N8TD | 1-11-11 (River) | Found it | mel-ray | Parked near 11-1-11 took the long walk with beasmastra and sidsgranma through the farm,then been hurded by a bully of a goat..Man did he have attitude today, after having his fun with us he headed off to irritate the poor horses in the near by field..Enjoyed the walk to the cache..Never been here before so being our first was great..On our return through the farm we heard a voice behind asking what did we want on this property..After much convincing and explaining and showing the GPS the farmer was happy and convinced we were not wanting to move onto his land......TFTC |
... | 1111-4 | GL70MBMT | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | BEASTMARSTA | Third time lucky! Just didnt spot the waypoint on previous attemps, t4tc. |
... | 1111-4 | GL70MY3R | 11-11-11 (A12) | Found it | mel-ray | Out caching with Sidsgranma today, Sylvie shouted something but with all the noise from below I thought she had fallen down the bank..hhhmm much to my delight she just found the cache...Phew what a relief as many thoughts went through my head at that moment..great cache and hide..TFTC |
... | TMT02 | GL70WDH5 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today. This was our first – nice east find. |
... | TMT02 | GL71J2YE | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | Louiseinwb | First cache of the day for the Mother and I. Having found tour number 12 and 1 last night, we thought we would return to complete the series. Clever clue and hide! TFTC. |
... | TMT03 | GL70WECJ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today.

... | TMT03 | GL71J362 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. Saw a nice muggle and her muggle dog near the location of the cache, so had to wait a little while until they were out of sight. Nice easy find. TFTC. |
... | TMT04 | GL70WG56 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today. After leaving number 3 we walked up the wrong stream and had to find somewhere to cross to the other side. I fell down the bank but no serious injuries sustained. I'll rember this one for a while! |
... | TMT04 | GL71J3J9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. Nice easy find. TFTC. |

TFTC. |
... | TMT06 | GL70WK0Y | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today.

... | TMT06 | GL71J4BR | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. Had a little trouble working out which corner of the bridge was the SW one, but after a little rummage we soon had the cache in hand. Before we knew it, a muggle and his two dogs passed us. He didn't ask any questions, just smiled and said what a nice day it was. Maybe he knew what we were doing! TFTC. |
... | TMT07 | GL70WKX8 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today.

... | TMT09 | GL70WNV9 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today. Approached this one from the wrong direcetion as the side with the gate apeared to be someone's back garden. Popped through the fence and could then access what we could only see from the field! |
... | TMT09 | GL71J5MX | Tolleshunt Major Tour 9 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. We seemed to have ended up on the wrong side again. Had a peek through the trees and saw a gate, so decided that we needed to climb through. The location of the cache was actually on an adjacent, more obvious gate! TFTC. |
... | TMT10 | GL70WPCD | Tolleshunt Major Tour 10 | Found it | kareninwb | Caching with Louise today. Having found number 1 and 2 in this series last night we thought we'd complete the series today. This one found quickly. |

Giving a favourite here but it is really for the whole series. Thank you. |
... | TMT11 | GL71J6DG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 11 | Found it | Louiseinwb | Out caching with the Mother. Last one of the tour for us. We had a little trouble deciding which corner of the bridge was SE, but with a little trial and error, the cache was soon in our hands. Thank you for a well maintained series, and a fun day of caching! I have given you a favourite point for the whole tour! |

We took a stroll out with our new puppy to see the Horses that had just arrived for the winter and as we were walking past I suddenly remembered this one. I hadn't brought the co-ordinates or the clues with me but knew the general area.
On arrival at the spot from memory I thought ' where would I hide something' and 30 seconds later I had the cache in hand! Very pleased with myself :)

... | RR030 | GL723C8B | RR030 - Du Cane | Found it | The Growler | I did this with a bit of conjecture as most Crow puzzles are beyond me. I looked at the logs and cache title, and solved the anagram almost as soon as I had looked at it (I think I am more of a wordsmith than a number cruncher). Armed with this info and a stick I had no problems finding this well hidden cache. Cheers! |

... | RR077X | GL7248ZN | RR077 - Pure Conjecture | Found it | gillywig | FTF What no puzzle to solve! Conjecture it will have to be then. Anagrams sorted. Now do I(Gr) go or wait 'til Gilly's break? Conjecturing says 3pm earliest (nearer 4pm more likely) plus drive time equals dark. So off I go solo. (well its a possible FTF so allowed!) Without my co-driver, my memory map took me to my chosen parking. Not too many places to check so walking a fairly brisk pace. Paused to allow two hurtling 4x4s play 'who is going to give way first' to pass. Now could it be there? Well as I've stopped might as well take a look. Well what do you know... Nicely hidden, snug in its new camo bag. SL circa 14:00. We look forward to reading the logs of those who also conjecture. I(Gr) will also look forward to watching Gilly conjecture sometime soon. Thanks Ray, brilliant. |
06 Dec 2011 | E324 | GL72E2GQ | Essex 100 - 3/24 - Terminus | Found it | gillywig | A quick find on the way to a couple of Rally Round caches. SL TFTC. Picked up a good selection of fresh reasonable priced vegatables from the man with his van on our return to the car by the church. |
... | RR066X | GL72E24M | RR066 - Serendipity Chickens | Found it | gillywig | Having been Doctor Doolittle for the last few days, we eventually arrived at a conclusion. Consulted Google Earth and it looked viable, so headed off in the brief gap between work and darkness. Arrived at a convenient parking in the west and walked towards our pencil plot on our trusty OS map. Spotting a potential hide, we noticed a truggle (tractor-driving muggle?) approaching, so strolled casually by and analysed our map intently until the coast was clear. We had thought that it would be easy with the anagram, but still had to be thorough! SL TN left 1955 1/- (for those who remember!!!) TFTC and another great idea to tax our grey matter!!! |
... | RR069 | GL72E17V | RR069 - Much.Wittiness | Found it | gillywig | Very witty. This had caused quite a bit a head scratching. We hadn't a clue here. Knowing we were to head out this way for a couple of other possible finds we returned to visit the page once more. Once more nothing... then maybe... and then amazed to see we'd hit upon the solution. Parked the car and, as if we need a pointer(see photo), we set off. Put there by Mr Crow? additional Wittiness? surely a coinicedence. After a bit of pacing, which came up a few feet short, the cache was soon found. SL tn left 1963 1/-. Thanks, another favourite RR cache. |
... | RR074 | GL72E4MJ | RR074 - Dial-A-Ride | Found it | gillywig | Thought this would be a relatively straight forward RR puzzle. Couldn't solve the puzzle anagram but felt confident of what was required. Co-ords calculated but geochecker said not. Re-entered and still not correct. Put aside for a while then returned afresh. What a roudimentary error. Ah well, a quick adjustment and geochecker said correct. All prep'd and put aside once more whilst we talked with the serendipity 66. This afternoon a quick find at gz in an appropriate cache container. SL left 1979 5p TFTC. |
... | RR077X | GL72E4H4 | RR077 - Pure Conjecture | Write note | gillywig | Having a break between work and darkness and driving out into this territory for some Rally Rounds, I (Gilly) was given the cache printout and asked to find the cache! No pressure! Walked trying to look casually confident, glancing about for likely hides. Spotted and headed for my best candidate and came up trumps! Great fun! TFTC |

... | RR075 | GL72M9RF | RR075 - Bonzo | Write note | Kitty!! | Bonzo is a very special cat - that is, he is very simple. Yes, I know what you are thinking - the dog and owner rule also applies to kitties! Anyway, send Bonzo out mousing and he will proudly return with a leaf as a present and spend the morning chasing it around the kitchen. So when Mr Crow mentioned he had created a puzzle cache in my Bonzo's honour I was delighted thinking that he had produced a simple puzzle suitable for Kitty.
I finally solved the puzzle anagram and Googled the result. WT*! As the Crow would say - "Bah"! (Lap-top now being sent off to Acer for repair.)
Last night after Junior Kitty's maths tutorial Mr Crow volunteered a Bonzo tutorial for Kitty (a cruel kindness if ever there was!)and there followed a painful 15 minute explanation delivered in increasingly simple terms.
Well, all I can say is "Bonzo" is a misnomer for this cache! Difficulty "4" - Oh my nine lives! And there sat the Crow, smirking gleefully! Cruel Crow!
Kitty 'gets it' but sadly Kitty can't get it - kos kitty kan't Kompute Kruel Krow's Kache Konundrums - ie the final stage is too darned difficult for Kitty! Only possibility for me on this one is kitty konjecture!
I'll buy a drink for the First to Solve at the next Essex Meet! |

15 Dec 2011 | RR019X | GL73F4PE | RR019 - Spickets Wood | Found it | Mallardpick | A very good puzzle which I am not sure I solved in the right way - it gave the right answer and, with the essential solving of the anagram, I went straight there.

We were going to abandon it but thought that we would try to go and get a few using the poems.

28 Dec 2011 | 1111-3 | GL75BR2Z | 1-11-11 (River) | Found it | Kitty!! | # 2,153 9/19 @ 12.24
Christmas guests had departed and feeling rather stodgy from over indulging and in need of a good walk/caching trip. Settled on the Canonium trail with add ons - making it a 10.7 mile round trip with 19 caches. Purrfect!
Diverted from the Canonium trail to find this between Nos XIII and XIV. Had intended to take footpath off the Braxted Road up to the A12 and approach from the north as nervous of going through the Mill from the South. However, footpath wasn't marked so decided to go from the south. Absolutely no footpath sign from the road and the driveway of Great Braxted Mill looked very private. As I approached the house a family of four were bundling into their motor. "Can I help you?" the man enquired. "No thanks" I replied "I am just using the footpath" Man and wife exchange glances and declare there is no footpath. "Oh" I say " "but I understood E.C.C. have sorted that and there is." "Oh but the owners told us there isn't a footpath" they replied. "I think you'll find there is" I said and marched through praying I wouldn't look an idiot and bump into a brick wall with no way out! However, quicky came to a gate and very obvious footpath over the river and climbed over whilst the couple debated "what should we do" with each other. I didn't stop to find out. Hope I wasn't trespassing!
Cache quickly found and I carried on up the path not wishing to retrace footsteps - but footpath markers from here were woefully inadequate and I just had to do the best I could with aid of the OS! Pity my caching partner wasn't with me to navigate! Remind me not to go caching without him again! TFTC

My field note says "Bah". This translates to "Got to GZ and cache not immediately obvious. Looked at hint and saw a ***** anagram! Tried PAF (or rather PACO!) but friend/CO out so had to just get on with the search! Huge relief when the little devil revealed itself! TFTC |

... | E316 | GL75C2ZK | Essex 100 - 3/16 - Borrowdyke | Didn't find it | Mr Mercator | Only did a handful today, the main purpose was just a pleasant walk in the fresh air and to grab the local Confluence Challenge. I didn't waste any time if I couldn't find a cache, especially as it was getting dark, and it will be nice to have some to do when I return. |

Took about 4 hours to complete the series including a couple of extra caches along the way. We were a bit exposed to muggle walkers at this one, so had to take our time retrieving the cache. TFTCs! |
... | E318 | GL75C56C | Essex 100 - 3/18 - Shinglehead | Found it | Mr Mercator | #223. Last of the day, it was getting dark by now and the wind was quite cold. TFTC. Some photos from this afternoon: http://www.geocaching.com/challenges/CX3079_Essex_Minute_Confluence_45_52

... | RR257X | GL759YCH | RR257 - Great Braxted Wall 1 | Found it | denarius | The last of these caches and it has been a most enjoyable walk, just what we needed after the excesses of Christmas and recovering slowly from lingering coughs and colds. It was very enjoyable and neatly organised. All in all it is worthy of a favourite from us. |
... | RR258X | GL759X42 | RR258 - Great Braxted Wall - 2 | Found it | denarius | Soon had the cache and good to know our calculations were correct. Enjoying the walk, thanks. |
... | RR259X | GL759WG8 | RR259 - Great Braxted Wall - 3 | Found it | denarius | Great to find the cache without much fuss and fun avoiding the muddy patches and puddles. Another nice cache on this well thought out and enjoyable route. TFTC |
... | RR260X | GL759VRN | RR260 - Great Braxted Wall - 4 | Found it | denarius | Soon found number 4 and had the log signed. Enjoying the return walk although some of the wall seems to be leaning in places it is an amazing construction. Thanks for bringing us here. |
... | RR261X | GL759QXQ | RR261 - Great Braxted Wall - 5 | Found it | denarius | The second cache of our return walk and another nice one. We decided to take the Luxembourg coin in the hope we can add a few miles to its journey soon. TFTC. |
... | RR262X | GL759PVX | RR262 - Great Braxted Wall - 6 | Found it | denarius | The first of our return journey armed with all the information we have collected on our pleasant walk here by the wall. A great feeling when you realise you have got your co-ords correct and you can get your hands on the well hidden cache. Thanks for the excellent idea for a series and the nice cache. |
... | TMT01 | GL75Q3GA | Tolleshunt Major Tour 1 | Found it | tgw2507 | Nice easy find - could get log out to sign though! |
... | TMT02 | GL75Q3JN | Tolleshunt Major Tour 2 | Found it | tgw2507 | Another one with a jammed log book. |
... | TMT03 | GL75Q3NC | Tolleshunt Major Tour 3 | Found it | tgw2507 | Must bring tweezers next time. |
... | TMT04 | GL75Q3Q1 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 4 | Found it | tgw2507 | Enjoying the walk |
... | TMT05 | GL75Q3VG | Tolleshunt Major Tour 5 | Found it | tgw2507 | I think there is a path across the field directly to this one but it's not obvious, took a detour round the edge of the field. |
... | TMT06 | GL75Q3WQ | Tolleshunt Major Tour 6 | Found it | tgw2507 | Found after a bit of a hunt. |
... | TMT07 | GL75Q3XE | Tolleshunt Major Tour 7 | Found it | tgw2507 | Quick find |

... | TMT12 | GL75Q432 | Tolleshunt Major Tour 12 | Found it | tgw2507 | Easy find - now off to the shops! Thanks for the series, enjoyed the walk. |
29 Dec 2011 | RR015 | GL75KG61 | RR015 - Cache Championships | Found it | The Growler | Almost went A over T here! A nice puzzle that I could solve for a change! TFTC |
... | RR077X | GL75KGG7 | RR077 - Pure Conjecture | Found it | The Growler | Found in the obvious place. Relieved it was too! TFTC. |
30 Dec 2011 | CC | GL75TCW2 | Crow's Cawlumn | Found it | ecopuffinparents | Made a detour from the Cobblers 5K walk down a lovely old track. A quick find. Took keyring left ladybird rubber. TFTC |
... | RR069 | GL75TB25 | RR069 - Much.Wittiness | Found it | the_fullers | Looked at this one a number of times but I just did not have a clue where to start. I had discussed with HeinzBeanz and the two of us just did not understand what we were missing. I flicked back from time to time hoping that the answer would jump out at me but it did not, not until I saw a found log by Denbymist. I spent a couple of minutes looking again and suddenly the penny dropped and the coordinates were confirmed by Mr Crow’s GZ Checker Today we decided that the monkeys needed to test out their new Wellington Boots and what better excuses to make our way to GZ We may have taken the longer route but enjoyed the walk spotting the hide form a little way away, disagreeing with what GPS was telling me. Cache was soon in hand. TNLN. SL. TFTC. |
31 Dec 2011 | RR005 | GL761NXQ | RR005 - Totham Triangle 1 | Didn't find it | Denbymist | I don't know what I've done wrong here, but I searched for quite a while, and just could not find it. I will probably try again another day. |
... | RR006X | GL762J13 | RR006 - Totham Triangle 2 | Found it | Denbymist | Still feeling a bit annoyed with myself for not finding RR5, I was soon feeling better after a fairly quick find here. TFTC. |
... | RR007 | GL762NVW | RR007 - Totham Triangle 3 | Found it | Denbymist | I was going to approach this one from the northern end of the footpath, but the field had some bulls in it, and I was not going to take the chance on them being friendly. I walked round to approch from the south, a lot safer in my mind. Found the cache quite quickly. TFTC. My last for 2011. |
... | RR064X | GL761JKC | Rally Round 64 aka Leg-ability 3 | Found it | Denbymist | First find of my planned day, nice quick find, just what we needed. TFTC. |
... | RR065X | GL761KE2 | Rally Round 65 aka Leg-ability 4 | Found it | Denbymist | Went straight to it with the aid of the hint, bit muddy underfoot though. Thats the four Leg-abilities done. TFTC. |
... | RR075 | GL761CH0 | RR075 - Bonzo | Write note | the_fullers | I am sure my screen is starting to burn this image yet still I am getting no where .... not even the tried and trusted Coffee and Jaffa Cake attack has worked |
