Keeping an eye on site too, but I never do much on the moor this time of year beyond the odd stroll - days too short and weather too rotten! I should hibernate 'til Spring!

This is an idea of having the forum to have a bit of a banter during the cold weather, especially those of us who are not foolhardy (or diehard) letterboxers

Hi,
I am here, I check on here probably once a week as im new to letterboxing.
Weather has still been ok to get up the moors, hope it is good early next year.

Merry Christmas

181 have looked at the thread, but only 9 have taken the trouble to respond to the request made by Nik. What is going on?

sadly a lot of the early members no longer show any interest in the site and havn't posted in years. After Christmas perhaps it will be time to start selective deleting of members.

A new thread could be started and ask people to post if they wish to remain as a member.

I do know quite a lot of members though just log on and have a good read - maybe search a particular topic, or try and find info on something etc. Its not a condition of membership that you have to post, but having said that, its nice to hear what others have to say.

I sadly know a lot of people don't post, but do read a lot of the comments.
I know, for example, there is a FB page where there are over 7000 members and yet only 35 people regularly post, the rest just read comments.

We don't bite (provided we have been fed beforehand) and we would welcome interaction from some of the people who visit... even if it only to say hi

Bog_baby - sadly Reg the bull mastiff dog died last year. I met him and his owner Gary at the meet and Reg was not very well then - he was a huge dog and very friendly. Gary got in touch later to say he had passed away. Very sad. Hopefully Gary is still around, though as would be expected walking on the moors went on the back burner for a while.

Oh no so sorry to hear that

Hi love reading these threads as enjoying a return to the hobby after my long break, had some great walks already this year, Fur Tor NYD, then all up around Yes Tor & Dinger, and a third walk on Bodmin, all of which yielded some great letterboxes and dare I say it, geocaches.
Looking forward to many more hikes this year, exercising myself and the dogs bieing the main objective with stamp collecting giving me a route to follow and additions to my collection. thanks for your efforts in running this website

Still on the north moor. not done much boxing, but did find one or two the other day when I went up to check my own boxes.
Have plans for another charity walk on flanks of Cosden Beacon.

I guess I am one of those browser culprits. I only seem to log in when I am about to head to the moors - once of twice a year!

I will try and make some comment each time from now on ...

Hi there, no obligation to post, but would be nice to hear of your visits to the moors. Good luck out there, bit too cold for me, plus can't get the boxes out of the frozen holes

I peer across from Haldon frequently but it looks colder than Haldon at the moment (which is saying something). Still a smattering of snow on the high ground -- I'll wait 'till it's cleared!
