The area to the side of the path can become heavily overgrown with nettles (though they were cut back in mid-August 2007). Because of this (and the fact that the path is close to water) PLEASE TAKE EXTRA CARE IF CACHING WITH CHILDREN OR AT NIGHT. You may encounter sheep near to the final location, so be careful with dogs please.
The co-ordinates above take you to the end of the Wendover Arm, where you will need to find the answer to a few simple questions to get the co-ordinates of the cache. You need to find 7 single digit numbers, A - G.

The cache is located at:-
N51 4A.BCD W000 44.EFG
In order to be in a more muggle-free area, the cache is located away from the path, you need to cross a stile to reach it. It is a small plastic box. When placed it contained:- Cache notice, logbook, pen, TheRoundings Casino geocoin, a first to find badge, a novelty pencil sharpener, a rubber, some Euro coins and Five National Lottery scratchcards.
As an extra incentive to find the cache, the First five to find the cache may take one scratchcard each.
Please ensure the cache is well tucked in when you leave & no piles of sticks please.
This is my first cache, I hope you enjoy it. In order to help me do better next time I would welcome any comments or constructive criticisms you may have.
Well done to Sensei TSKC - First to Find.
