Fiona (FM1906) was having her 40th Birthday party… a much delayed 40th birthday party, on her 42nd Birthday – Lockdowns put paid to having it either of the two previous years.
As the event was in Halifax on a Sunday teatime I took the opportunity to go over in the afternoon and do three sets of Lab caches first
Caches No’s 5820 to 5839 – Four More Lab Sets
I would say 4 sets of Lab caches, 4 weekend caching trips except that I was working and it was raining over the last May weekend so I didn’t go out then, and then the next weekend was the double Bank Holiday to celebrate the Queens Platinum Jubilee, so I went out on the Friday and did two sets to make up for missing the previous week. I am beginning to run out of local and easy sets of Lab caches, but there are plenty to go at in Leeds though free parking isn’t very easy to find there
Caches No’s 5802 to 5819 – Bradford and Shipley Labs
Two weekends, two caching trips, the first a Sunday afternoon walk around Bradford to find a couple of sets of Lab caches, the following Saturday morning I went to Shipley to do the set of labs there… Bradford was a lot of walking. For the Stroll around Shipley I drove to the first locations and only parked up and strolled for the last three
Caches No’s 5791 to 5801 – Midland Lab Caches
On the way back from Barmouth I stayed overnight at Angel78’s as I was going to Nottingham the next day (she was going to work the next day so that worked out well)
The evening we got back we went out for a walk to her local park, Chasewater reservoir, there are a set of labs there, but they are spread around the park and we only had time to do 3 of them that evening.
Caches No’s 5766 to 5790 – Springtime in Wales
Angel78 and I went to Barmouth for the weekend. I had been having problem with my leg and not being able to walk properly for a while, but assumed it was just a pulled muscle from moving heavy things at work, but I had only driven half way to Lichfield to pick her up when I found I was in serious discomfort.
Caches No’s 5759 to 5765 – Lister Park Labs
Another working Saturday, so after I had closed the showroom at 4:00 I drove to Bradford and had a little walk around Lister park… 5 Labs, an earthcache and a bonus cache for the Labs
It was busier than I expected for a Saturday teatime as there was a fair going on with rides and candy floss and such like
