cache removed for maintenance, and a rethink. I've archived the frog listing !

As usual I left it until far too soon before setting off before thnking about puzzle caches at my destination. Not as usual, I had got an hour or so, and got the puzzle worked out in time.

I was lucky in very quickly happening on a clue to what the puzzle is about. A couple of targeted searches yielded promising results and I soon had a set of coordinates that pointed to a very likely spot.

Sadly, the checker said ‘no’! Hm, looks like Sir Terry needs listenimg rather than looking. I did some listening. It didn’t help much, but gave me a couple of (rather tortuous) alternatives. Both wrong.

Next bit of listening would take a while. When does my bus leave? Too soon. I confess to resorting to a bit of guessing. Bingo! The checker says ‘yes’. Pop the answer in the GPSr, and to the bus stop with several minutes to spare.

Once off the bus I walked to GZ. The windchill factor was strong and I was well wrapped up against the cold. In fact the actual find took only a minute. The coordinates are spot on.

I signed the log well away from GZ, and popped the cache back as found.

Thanks for a nicely judged puzzle, for introducing me to some new nerdy heroes to add to my own collection, and for the cache! It would have a recommendation star if I had any to give.

I think my brain is lost in space and in a spin most of the time! Luckily the CO came to my rescue after my DNFs and gave more detailed instructions on where to find the cache, which led a a quick find today:-)I had been within inches before but must have just missed it in my haste not to look suspicious in such a busy location!

 

Great puzzle:-)thanks!

It’s probably about time I logged a DNF on this one... I’ve had about four extremely brief looks  (due to my wimpiness searching in busy locations) but haven’t managed to get my hands on the cache:-(I did enjoy the puzzle though:-)and I’m often passing here - so will hopefully get there in the end

Well, apologies to both cachers who struggled with the hide, entirely the fault of my confused co-ordinates embarassed

I have visited GZ , averaged the GPS reading, amended the images and added a little extra information for one particular digit which caused problems. I've also added the native O.C. checker , which is now working properly, thanks to the speedy attention of the O.C. team, thanks Andy & co .

A FTF for us, such a rare treat. After checking our co-ords with the CO we had one number wrong as we hadn't taken enough notice of the instructions, but that was soon rectified and off we went. Mr H soon put his hands on the cache, the log was signed and everything replaced as found. Thanks hal an tow for placing the cache.
