Who are we?
We are a family of geocachers who strongly believe in the old (OK not so old) adage that states - "A family that caches together, stays together" - well it did go something along those lines. My name is Kathy and I am now disabled and can't do as many geocaches as I could in the past so I take care of business whilst my husband Ian and our two sons do the product testing - they use this good excuse to get their hands on great products before anyone else. We don't sell anything that we don't use ourselves and so we can be sure of the quality of the products we offer.
 Why did we start ukgeocachers.co.uk?
We enjoy our geocaching but were a bit perturbed as to how expensive some of the merchandise can be over here compared with prices in the USA. In particular things like Travel Bugs. Since I now have a bit of spare time on my hands I decided to make the best of it, I quickly cottoned on to the fact that buying in bulk meant that it kept the costs down and so decided to do something positive and went ahead and designed this site hence starting my own business (Blue Spaniel) ukgeocachers.co.uk. My ethos has always been based on providing the great customer service that you'd expect from a family run business.
What are our plans for the future?
We moved our home and business to Derbyshire in 2009 and this has allowed us to expand our product range. We are hoping to expand the site and bring in more of our own line of products that we feel will soon become synonymous with geocaching over here in the UK. We have already produced a number of our own geocoins including the "Best of British" series of geocoins, they are going down well and we have now produced the Trakabulldog - a geocoin that thinks its a Travel Bug.
We will be expanding our range of pin badges and designing and producing more great geocaching products.
Our range of Travel Bug and Geocoin Passports will be incresed to include some new designs and formats to allow even more customisations of your TB's before you release them.
