Our first Event, the Scabs' first hide, and a special present!

Circumstances have changed and suddenly we are free today! The Scabs are off to the Swindon Science Museum event, so we ask if we can tag along to our first event cache!

Before the event we visit Swindon Train Station to help the Scabs with their first Hide!! They’ve done a SideTracked Cache (as most of the MMs round their way are done, and micros are by far the easiest way to start your hiding adventures!)

We had a great time at the event, spotting lots of coins and travel bugs, making a pledge in the I Pledge book and grabbing the new Cache (an LQ to boot!) as well as an existing one. We meet lots of Cachers and even get snapped! I even managed to spot a dog with a TB tag on, who turned out to be Sir Chester *lol*



On the way home we did another Cache, and met up with Sir Chester again. Then a little further along the road the Scabs came to a halt, and told us we were near an MM they have already grabbed, so took us to log it!

We get back to read some early logs of the event, and find there were TWO new Caches for the event :( Never mind, with the Event itself we’ve bagged 5 Caches today – good stuff!!!
Best of all the Scabs had a surprise for us! A 10 Hides coin to celebrate all our Cache hides!
