- Found it
Searched for some time at the indicated position, but with no success - couldn't even see anything that resembled the hint. Having read the Groundspeak logs it was apparent that the listed co-ordinates were abysmally poor. I wandered back down the road and saw nothing, then the other way, round the corner, and eventually found the cache with my GPSr reading 190 feet away !!!!!!
The problem with the poor co-ordinates is particularly serious in the light of the cache being hidden in someone's garden - we are told it has permission to be there, but with such poor co-ordinates the searcher has no idea if he is looking in the wrong garden !!!
That this problem has been reported so often on Groundspeak suggests it is not a problem with my reading but with the cache owner's. This urgently needs to be sorted out. In case it helps, my reading is N51 51.833 W002 36.682
The cache contains a squirrel toy that nearly fills it. Unfortunately it is a hairy squirrel and the hair is hard to contain within the box, with the result that water wicks in - the cache is slightly damp inside.
Thanks for the cache,
Rgds, Andy
