Yep, me too!
Haven't done one for ages, the Church Micro's have taken over as our preferred cache and dash series, if we have one, for us as they usually take us to nicer places  ;D ;D

Went for Silver SideTracker as it matches my hair  ;D
Bet Jim Jinks stats will be impressive, if that's the correct phrase, as he was really into finding them if I remember correctly.

Although they omit 3 others from their stats because the names are not quite right.

GC57D5F Unknown Cache SideTracked Bearley - Challenge Cache By: JimJinks
(Premium Member cache!)  Hidden: 21/06/2014

1) You must have found and logged 25 SideTracked caches. These are caches that have 'SideTracked' or 'Sidetracked' or 'Side Tracked' in the cache name. Archived caches and finds made before publication of this cache count.

2) The 25 caches must be in 25 different counties in England, Wales or Scotland. The attached map shows the county boundaries, as used by GSAK, which apply for this challenge. The published co-ordinates are the ones that count for multis and unknowns.
