+ANDYBUG&LADYBIRD Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Does anybody have a lucky item they take with them when they go caching? I have a bracelet that was made by Minstrelcat, which I took from a cache. I call it my lucky caching bracelet and if I forget to wear it when out caching, you can gaurantee that we will have a day filled with no finds and getting lost and that sort of thing! When wearing it it's a different story-the sun shines, cache boxes jump out of the leaf litter, we find the nearest parking spot first time, the good luck goes on&on! In fact Andy has even got into the habit of asking me if I'm wearing it before we leave the house-it really is our good luck charm! So does anybody have lucky pants or are we the only superstitious ones? Quote Link to comment
+Beds Clangers Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Not really superstitious but normally find that keeping Mummy Clanger away from the GPS tends to help!! Quote Link to comment
Browser Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I find we are much more successful on the days that I take my trusty old Garmin 12XL - I suppose it could be a lucky charm ........ Never given it much thought Browser Quote Link to comment
+minstrelcat Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I'm quite touched - I do wonder sometimes what happens to the stuff I make for cache swaps. Probably most of them end up at the back of a drawer somewhere Will you have it with you at the Halloween cache bash? Lisa Quote Link to comment
+Cave Troll and Eeyore Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Well i bought a waxed baseball cap which I thought was going to be lucky , but after owning it for just 24 hours it blew over a cliff part way up Snowdon. I suppose i was lucky not to be blown over the cliff with it ! Quote Link to comment
nobby.nobbs Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 i'm superstitious and would say you can't buy a lucky item. i think it either needs to be given or traded for. sorry cave troll that'll be why your hat not lucky. i have a good luck charm that was made for me by a friend. usually works.

+Simply Paul Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I have a lucky mobile phone with some lucky phone numbers of other lucky cachers stored on it. Which is lucky. "That's more than lucky..." SP Quote Link to comment
+The Ollies Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 I normally wear a lucky baseball cap, it's not that lucky actually but I dont feel I've gone caching if I dont wear it! Perhaps a bit like Pharisee! As soon as we have sorted our cache pages, bag etc. I hunt out my caching hat! It's like the law to have it! So I suppose it's my "lucky pants" Ollie Mum.

Only a select few knows what happens on a drunken night out and a certain sock drawer Quote Link to comment
+ANDYBUG&LADYBIRD Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 (edited) Shut up about the sock drawer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As for wearing my lucky caching bracelet to the cache meet-I wouldn't be without it!!!! Back to the muck spreading, I remember a drunken night you had Ollie Mum, and the hoover the next day!!!!!!
