A 9 mile walk with plenty of caches.
Shame they were published ahead of such a horrible day :o
Will anyone here get the FTFs?
I may not be able to complete it until late August, since I've
not got it pencilled in ahead of my 2000th so I'll have to watch
my numbers soon. :(

Planning to complete the GCW Central ring tomorrow, but could
swap another series I had pencilled in for this week for this
one as it does look good :)
From next Tuesday, there'll pretty much be no more caching until
after May 22nd (exams) :(

Having now logged them, I see in fact it is only one of the W
series, the other two new caches by HKMHill were: Container
Themed Cache and a Church Micro :)

I didn't have time to do the whole series so chose the east loop
that you can make, missing out Winchcombe. For the bonus, I only
didn't have 'B' but that was guessable :)
Great views and a good walk even though I didn't do it all.
That's another FTF calendar date filled in :)

Well done!
We completed the GCW yesterday.
We almost went to do the Winchcombe series, so we would have
started at 8am - would that have been before you? :D
May do it next weekend as my last caching trip before stopping
for more and less full time exam revision.

What did you think of the GCW Griff?
And to stay on topic. I am looking forward to doing the new
Winchcombe series. In reality it will probably be some weeks yet
though.

Thought it was fantastic, we did it over three sunny days as
well. There were some soggy caches and a few missing ones (had 5
DNFs overall) but there were plenty of extra ones along the way
to supplement them... It really was a great Cotswold walk :)
Now to wait for our broadband to be back so that I can log them
and write my blog post for it. :D
Going back on topic, I also can't wait to do this series whether
it's next week or in a few months :)

Completed the whole series this morning in the sunshine :)
An absolutely fantastic walk, with brilliant views all the way
round. The caches were there to be found, and many were well
stocked and well hidden :)
Hopefully getting Internet back tomorrow, so will log the caches
then and write my blog posts for both this series and the GCW.
My last proper caching trip until after my exams. :(
