What category should this go in - small? micro?
It's the smallest (generally available) tab-lock box in the world - 8.5x5.5 cm.
Cute, or what.... ?

I'd say small. AB uses quite a lot like those for her Fife Rocks Series Letterbox Hybrids. _________________ Utterly smitten by a Captain

Now that's a micro
The only item to scale to is the ivy leaf. |

I would go for small, now what I want to know is where do you get them that small from?

I do believe that I may have been the first person on mainland UK to place a cache that small, identical to that one actually.
Simply Paul boosts about his being small but I bet him by about 2 weeks. Not that it really makes that much difference or that anybody should care _________________ Let me know if I say anything that offends you

I've seen one even smaller that that when I was taken out caching by Powerbookfanatic and Mongoose39 in Manchester. It was made from moulded camoflauged plastic, hidden inside a hole in a tree branch, and there is NO way I would have found it if they hadn't given me some clues. _________________ Utterly smitten by a Captain

Smaller than that, the logsheet must have been tiny, as my one is really small, I tried to go smaller, but I couldn't make a log small enough. With that said though, I guess you would know whether it is smaller or not, as you have found my cache.
Here is a picture of my cache courtesy of Susanne&Marc

That explains something that's been bothering me for six months - I tried to find this one (GCJYDR) on 28/2/05 and failed.
The picture above makes clear that I was looking in completely the wrong place...

...and were was your DNF log, Mr Wlw??
I can assure you that it is not permanently hanging from a lady cacher who just so happens wants to hang around Murrayfield stadium.
The co-ords are fairly accurate and with a bit of lateral thinking it is an easy find. As are all of my caches of course _________________ Let me know if I say anything that offends you

Nope! Mine are actually next size up - about 14cm x 10cm! Have seen the smaller ones though - Cookster has used them on her ones along the Tay - yes they are dinky-do-dah!! |
