This post is secret; you can only find it via my RSS feeds (and places which syndicate them). It's okay to talk about it or link to it, though. Thanks for being part of RSS Club! You know it’s been too hot and dry when, as soon as the rain starts to fall, your first […]

This checkin to GCBMAMH #22 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. For a while I was looking way too high, but in the end I caught a glimpse of this surprisingly well-concealed container. And that’s the loop complete! Big thanks to the CO for setting this excellent trail […]

This checkin to GCBMAMC #21 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A good thematic cache container which we managed to find in a gap between muggle traffic. TFTC.

This checkin to GCBMAM5 #20 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. QEF for the geohound and I as we push on into the final straight of our circular walk. TFTC!

This checkin to GCBMAM2 #19 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. My GPSr – and my eyes – locked on to a nearby gate post which I searched thoroughly before realising it wasn’t the host: d’oh! Eventually found success while the doggo tried to make more sheepy friends.

This checkin to GCBMAKZ #18 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Solid coordinates walked me right into this one, although I’ve still got to give it credit for excellent camouflage! TFTC.

This checkin to GCBMAKQ #17 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. TOTT? Hah! I laugh in the face of your arbitrary requirements. 😂 A little climbing and a big stretch put this cache in my hand with no need for field manufacturing. The dog watched on, bemused, from […]

This checkin to GCBMAJB #16 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. It’s funny, I’ve cycled down the nearby back road countless times but never known that this footpath was here. Near the GZ the geopup saved the day on this one, spotting the requisite geotrail and bringing me […]

This checkin to GCBMAK0 #15 Northmoor Loop - Little Bridges # 3325 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The GZ was awash with sheep and lambs and we weren’t able to even get close to the cache until we’d gently shooed them all away then it was an easy find. […]

This checkin to GCBMAK5 #14 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Spent a while hunting in entirely the wrong place, got the hint, then searched in a different wrong place before remembering that the hint object is a thing that comes in two halves. Where’s the other half? […]

This checkin to GCBMAJV #13 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Another QEF for the doggo and I. I wonder if the Rose is open yet? The dog might be happy quenching her thirst from the river but I’m not!

This checkin to GCBMAHA #12 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Convenient access to the water here made this an ideal spot for a hot doggo to cool her paws and have a drink while I found the cache. Hint isn’t how I’d describe this object!

This checkin to GCBMAH6 #11 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Finding the hiding place was easy, but the cache was a bit deeper than I expected. What a delightfully bright morning it’s turning out to be! TFTC.

This checkin to GCBMAH2 #10 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The geopup was overheating a little so we took a break in the shade of the nearby pillbox before finding this cache. There’s risk this one will get harder if the bushes grow much in the summer! […]

This checkin to GCBMAGY #09 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A bit of a geotrail already starting to develop towards this hiding spot, I see. An easy find, TFTC!

This checkin to GCBMAGR #08 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Coming directly from the direction of #7, this cache container was visible from 30 metres out! The geopup busied herself with rolling in the grass while I did the necessary paperwork.

This checkin to GCBMAGF #07 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Wasn’t I just here? Yup! This is the only one of the series I’d already found, missing the FTF by only about half an hour the other week. It’s still here and looking good!

This checkin to GCBMAG7 #06 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Very easy find while the geopup dawdled behind me, clearly having found something more-interesting for her to smell. TFTC!

This checkin to GCBMAAR #05 Northmoor Loop - Little Bridges # 3324 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Another excellent container, though it was a bit of a stretch to reach it! A herd of playful cattle ran around far behind us as we searched, watching from a distance. TFTC.

This checkin to GCBMAAD #04 Northmoor Loop - Little Bridges # 3326 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Briefly overshot this one in our excitement to get out of the field with the sheep (and so allow the geohound off her lead) and rushed to the little bridge. Doubled back […]

This checkin to GCBMA9M #03 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. QEF when the GPSr dropped me right on it. The dog complained that I wouldn’t let her go play with the lambs while I retrieved the cache – the playful pup can’t understand why I wouldn’t let […]

This checkin to GCBMA8X #02 Northmoor Loop - Little Bridges # 3323 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Two for two. The dog watched from below as I reached for this one. Amazing container; love it! FP awarded for the container alone! TFTC.

This checkin to GCBMA4C #01 Northmoor Loop reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. In the second hiding place I tied, and the evidence suggests I’m not the first to make my mistake. I dipped into this series on release day from the other “side”; now I’ve returned (with my geopup […]

Ariel Salminen shared a release candidate for her new microframework Elena last week, and I love it! It's entirely geared towards Progressive Web Components and seems to provide all the scaffolding you'd need with none of the cruft. Delightful!

New Scientist reports that the NHS are closed-sourcing a lot of their code, out of fear that AIs like Mythos will facilitate easier exploitation of their systems if they don't. Which is pretty-much... completely backwards thinking.

When we moved house, Thames Water failed to set us up an account correctly, and the hacky workaround they came up with claims that we spent our first 11 hours in the Chicory House perhaps pouring three tonnes of water into an ankle-depth 5×10 metre swimming pool.

Dave Winer asked "What's the opposite of locked-in? Locked-open. Mwhahaa." Which kicked me off on thinking about how we secure the open-source nature of software, standards, and concepts... and the ideas that land in each.

RNotté shares a manifesto to seek out inconvenience in order to seek greater human connection and authentic experiences. And you know what their post reminds me of? The Matrix!

Something’s gone wrong on the Jellyfin server I use to manage my household’s film library, resulting in some unexpectedly-funny repetition…

Dave's struggling to finish his blog post out CSS. I get the feeling... let me tell you about my blog post about pedestrian crossings.
