yay we have recently topped the 1000 geocaches find total. woo hoo

I've noticed the increase in stupid pictures drawn up by caches in formation. In addition I've discovered so many caches where a little bit of tlc wouldn't go amiss. I mentioned it once to a cache owner who gave me grief in return for not being a responsible cache and doing something about it...

I don't know what you know about Land Rover but I started my Offroading life with a Freelander 1 which I thought was brilliant. That was until I bought my Discovery 2. Wow what an improvement. I kept that for quite a number of years until I got my Defender 90 and now I never want to give it...

it's OK, I understand things are busy. Additionally as we are pretty low down alphabetically it's going to take some time. at least we should beat Zimbabwe.

oooooooooooooo! how long before the mighty UK is included?

am I to assume the "region" thing refers to the US? will there be stickers / decals for other places / countries?

after watching the videos I'm guessing that Land Rover Defenders are not highly thought of in the US? I don't know if the guy in the first video is well known but he appears to have grown up with a silver spoon in his mouth. it certainly looks like his mom dresses him still. I even watched...

Sounds like a familiar scenario but Im sure your outcome will be much better than mine. Anyway I see youre a Jeep owner. I must admit it's one vehicle I've not driven. In my opinion they will replace the corner of the market where Land Rover Defenders will leave a hole. I love mine to bits

I have all of my fingers and toes crossed that her treatment goes well. that awful disease took my mum away from me almost 7 years ago and it still feels like yesterday

I'd love to get myself away to Morocco for a trip but Senior Management (the wife) isn't keen on the idea. I grew up having camped in all sorts of places and even taught Survival (self sufficiency) in my spare time. may wife however has never been camping other than once when I managed to drag...

I must admit that I have been a member of "other" forums but none have matched this one. I have given up on the other forums where I discovered that other members would not entertain a newbies questioned until they have "proved themselves" as worthy of a senior members attention. I call it...

T Its my biggest qualm about geocaching. I'm sick of being lead to dodgy alleyways or the back of disused industrial estates to find a cache. Bring back caches with a purpose. An awsome view, a historic place or somewhere of educational purpose. Come on geocachers let's have some...

My nearest OB member is in Oxford. I'm heading across to Dorset in a few months so maybe there will be a meetup take place then.

Many thanks for the info. I did say that I was a complete beginner, having never used a CB for personal reasons. my only radio communications experience was during my quarter century Naval background. I never had much reason to play with the configuration and aerials. I now have to convince...

Well if you decide to head South to Devon you could meet the current most Southern UK member. How about that for your bucket list???

In addition to your comments I assume that a recommendation from another member is required. My nearest member is probably 100 miles from me. It's not the end of the world but no one will see me doing my bit

thanks for the info re: tuning the antenna. thankfully this is Communications for the Beginner because my next question proves that I'm a beginner. here goes......... how does one tune the antenna to the radio?

Back at home after our trip

Down at The Lizard. this is the most Southerly point of the UK. Without question I AM the most Southerly UK member
