if there were no need for 'engineers from the quantum plenum' then we should not have any unanswered scientific questions.

I know of one member who has been doing this for years. However yesterday quite unexpectedly and totally unplanned I had a go.

I was out for a walk with a friend who has a geocache app on her phone. She opened the app to show me and we turned out to be 50m away from a micro cache. We found that one, devilishly clever and hidden in plain sight! Then the next one was a couple of hundred metres away and on our way home. Found that one too! The the next one was in the woods a little way away. We've left that for next time. I suspect this could get addictive!

I did this with my grandkids several years ago. We ended up in cemeteries and some rather difficult places to get into. It was fun. They went through that phase, and I haven't done it since then, but would do it again if presented with the opportunity.

I'm off out in a minute to see if we can find the one we didn't look for yesterday.

It will get you to places you probably wouldn't have visited otherwise, and some of them are well worth visiting. Some others . . .  ;)

At the moment the ones I have found ar very local and I have walked past them unaware of their existence many times.
