Joshs face sums it up!

Monday 22nd March 2010

Easy come, easy go.....yes some days its easy and then others like today is not so easy. The rain gods were not kind to us today, so we had a few errands to do today in Derby and so we thought it would be nice to knock a couple of the inner city centre caches off.....it would not be today, it would not be. No sooner had we got out the car than the heavens themselves opened up, granted not quite to Noah-esque proportions but enough to make walking in it miserable. This meant our long suffering son had to suffer a plastic sheet over his pushchair....and lets face it how awful that must be. So ok, ok you might be saying...there was a little rain...so what? Well next up the gps decided to play up, could I get a signal in the centre no I couldn't...I could get one for a split second and then it would go again....this made hunting for caches pretty darn hard. So the photo of Josh pretty much sums it up really, to be honest we were all pulling a jib by the end of the day!

There was one brief moment of joy though, hence the blog and hence me making you read about our afternoon. One of the clues for the cache was easy to understand and we knew we were roughly in the right place and sure enough after Mr Shiltonpig putting his hands in places he would rather not, he found the only cache of the day...which means 8 days of consecutive caching? Can we make it 9? Can it ever stop raining? and can Mr Shiltonpig and Josh stop posing in photos? If you honestly can't cope in life without the answers to these questions then I suggest you call the Samaritans...alternatively tune in tomorrow. A big team Shiltonpig raspberry to you all!
