After a walk round the
Mere Sands Wood nature reserve and seeing no birds except for the 'usual suspects', Grandad Bob, Sarah and I carried on to do this cache. The light was starting to fade and it was quite breezy after the calmness of walking in the woods. We parked at the bridge and set about finding the cache. Soon Sarah came up with the goods and the little quiz inside, for which we wrote one entry as required.
Just as we were finishing off a farmer in the nearby field drove over to us in his big tractor to find out what we were doing lurking about in the bushes. I decided to 'come clean' and explain about geocaching to put his mind as ease that were not drug dealers or criminals up to no good. He seemed happy with my explanation (and even said we didn't look like criminals) but I'm not sure he thought we were all 'full shillings' so to speak.
Anyway he soon drove off to carry on muck spreading in the field and we headed off for the final cache of the day a little further down the road.
