<p class="m-0 whitespace-pre-line text-grey-600 truncate break-words">Coming across from Finstock via R'n'R #9 (we're absolutely doing this series in the wrong order!), the geokid, geopup and I made a poor choice by hugging the tree line rather than cutting out of the field and coming up the road: it was super muddy in the field at the points at which the footpath runs nearest to this cache, and we struggled to get through a particularly large puddle.</p> <p class="m-0 whitespace-pre-line text-grey-600 truncate break-words">We initially made an effort to get "behind" the bush but eventually discovered we didn't need to: the cache (whose nature we'd eventually managed to guess from the name) was accessible - with a bit of a stretch - from near the roadside.</p> <p class="m-0 whitespace-pre-line text-grey-600 truncate break-words">And, in accordance with the theme, we've got a verse for you:</p> <p class="m-0 whitespace-pre-line text-grey-600 truncate break-words"><em>🎶 I used to wonder what caching could be,<br> 🎶 Until you all shared this series with me.<br> 🎶 Big adventure, tons of fun.<br> 🎶 A beautiful cache; now it's signed and done!</em></p>
The younger geokid and I had a plan, this morning, to drive out from our temporary (post-flood) accommodation in New Yatt, park at St. Peter’s in Wilcote, and then walk the dog around the area between Wilcote and Ramsden while we collect a few more caches from this excellent series.Unfortunately our plans were scuppered early […]

<p>The younger geokid and I had a plan, this morning, to drive out from our temporary (post-flood) accommodation in New Yatt, park at St. Peter's in Wilcote, and then walk the dog around the area between Wilcote and Ramsden while we collect a few more caches from this excellent series.</p> <p>Unfortunately our plans were scuppered early on when we discovered that a Scouts troop had completely occupied all possible parking spaces in Wilcote, and a platoon of children, supervised by some tired-looking adults, were beginning a walk around what looked likely to be the exact same routes we were planning.</p> <p>So we came at it from the other angle. Driving around to Finstock, we parked near The Plough and came across the network of footpaths from the other end.</p> <p><a href="https://danq.me/_q23u/2026/03/20260314_112436-scaled.jpg"><img src="https://danq.me/_q23u/2026/03/20260314_112436-640x360.jpg" alt="A boy and a dog run through a grassy fallow field." width="640" height="360" class="aligncenter size-i640 q23-image-28523"></a></p> <p>By the time we were at the corner of this field the kid and dog were enjoying running around in the Spring sunshine, and once we got to the GZ the cache itself was a quick and easy find... although the kid did take the time to stop and make a crude joke about the rabbit's bum being corked!</p>

Another quick find for the sharp-eyed geokid, once we found the right host. Three for three and that's time for us to turn about and go have our brunch. TFTC!

The woods made it hard to get a good fix, but eventually we were in the vicinity of this excellent cache. It took a few different tree hosts before eventually we were looking in the right place. The younger geokid insists that I log that he caught sight of it before me!

Came out for a dog walk from New Yatt this morning. The GZ is deep within thick brambles, but the younger geokid was up to the challenge and soon the unusual cache container was in hand. TFTC!

Completing our loop (minus a couple of DNFs, but plus a couple of nearby caches), this damp geopup and I were really happy to finish with this good-sized cache!TFTC, and for the series, if which this was our favourite and so earns the FP.Now we’d better go get cleaned and dry!×

Tougher than we expected to find – not only is this a stealthy container but it’s hidden unusually-thoroughly too! TFTCI’m increasingly regretting my choice this morning to wear comfortable but not waterproof shoes rather than my not-fully-broken-in walking boots. Between the muddy puddles and the long wet grass, my feet are soaked!
