I hope so ;D
I guess my most annoying one was on "The Wool Trade - Snowshill"
Multi :o
It was back in the days where I thought ALL caches were at the
published coords. I thought a Multi was just a box with multiple
compartments :D
And even worse at the coords there is a tree, hollow at the
back, and spent more than an hour searching, before
frustratingly having to give up. Went back a few days later and
the same thing happened.
Of course, later I found out that Multi's aren't at the
published coords. And when setting, and later maintaining,
Snowshill Scramble, I acquired the coords for the final
location. An obvious tree.
And a DNF. And another DNF on the maintenance run >:(
I don't think I'll ever find that cache :'( Very annoying on
every occasion :D

I think mine was Below Above - Multi 1 when I had equipment
failure :( I was on a roll that day and was hoping to get a
second FTF on the Below Above series and complete the then
currently active Below Above caches.
It is still the only Below Above that I haven't done :(

After yesterday I have a different nomination
British Library

A fantastic multi set in the British Library, you have to wonder
around the whole library gathering clues, then go outside to
find another clue to where the cache is hidden inside the
library. I spent 90 minutes gathering the clues and then a
further 30 minutes looking outside for a container that was
missing. I suppose the good news is that I have done the hard
work and the next visit will be much quicker.
