It turned out that
despite it being a week day there were a few of us available to get
into mischief today. Five of us gathered chez moi at 9am and
we set off on what was originally planned to be a geocaching
extravaganza. I'd planned a route which would take us three hours to
cover and would visit seventeen geocaching sites; as well as getting
us a spot of McBreakfast into the bargain.
In the end it turned out
that I was being rather ambitious. We ended up taking two and a half
hours just to get to McBreakfast; so we abandoned the entire
Sevington and Hinxhill sections of the route. We can do them at any
time. But the day was still a good one. We visited ten cache sites,
and only failed on two of them. And we even found a red herring(!).
We got home an hour later than planned, and after a shower and a
quick spot of lunch I watched a film I'd recorded about the pirate
Blackbeard. It was quite good.
One of the employment
agencies phoned about a potential job. A few months ago I would be
rather enthusiastic about the prospect. Now, having been turned down
so many times, I'm rather resigned to the fact that nothing will come
of it. But hope springs eternal...
"My Boy TM"
then arrived with Fudge. He and his posse are of to foreign parts for
the weekend and so we are looking after "problem pup".
He's apparently getting too excitable. I say "probably";
there's no "probably" about it. He can be excitable.
I wonder if it's time to cut his goolies off. Or just walk him a lot
more than he has been walked.
As "My Boy TM"
set off I set off with Fudge. A good walk usually works wonders with
him. And this morning I'd been given a really good present. A
ready-made geocache. (Cheers Jose!) And on our mission this
morning I'd found just the place to hide it. So I went to that place,
hid it, took the GPS co-ordinates six times (to get an average),
walked another two miles to wear the pup out, and came home. As Fudge
slept I then logged my third geocache hide with the nice people at
geocaching dot com.
"er indoors TM"
came home and we set off to Park Farm where we met Chris. A nice
walk in the evening with the dog, and we did three geocaches too...
