How does a few Geocaches this Sunday sound?

Your tempting me out now Dom. It was a surreal experience the last time with several cars cramming down tiny one way lanes looking for something that nobody knows what it looks like. Locals thought we were mad, but it was hilarious fun!
It's exactly that. A treasure hunt. Where you are given co-ordinates to where the treasure is, and usually given a clue. It can be anything and be anywhere. First one Dom ever took me too was the very first MI meet. It was in a Tesco Car Park and the location was smack bang where the trolley bay was. The 'geocache', or treasure for all intents and purposes, was a small capsule glued into an old dead snails shell, which was stuck to the underside of the trolley bay metal framework. A pain to find, but fun.
Now imagine about 6 or 7 of us scrawling over a tiny village centre square looking for something we didn't even know what it was - turned out to be a coke bottle top stuck to the underside of the village bench via magnet.
Its seriously fun
Ha

You download the app on smartphone. Its like £7.99 or something, but once downloaded its free, and fun. I'm yet to do so. Dom has it on his phone, so co-ordinates are attained from him.
There are literally MILLIONS of them all over the world, never more than a few hundred metres apart somtimes. Anyone who does/has it can set one up, each person who decides to do so is solely responsible for its upkeep and checking its not stolen from time to time.
I'm talking like a pro, i've only done it twice with Dom in the past, its really quite fun ha

I believe its all coming together gradually. I'm sure within a day or two times and places will be discussed/announced
