Geocache Description:

This is a continuation of the series that Dorsetgal started in Dorset (GC1K6MX), after hearing about it how it got established in the US on the Podcacher Podcast, and which FantasticCat has continued in Greater London (GC1N994).

Things can be shadowed in more ways than out of the sun. They can be overshadowed, as in having a threat hanging over them. I've done a lot of research since last month - I've had to.

Being a good skeptic, I didn't believe a word about any silly curse. That sort of talk is for the superstitious and I'm not one of those... well I wasn't.

It all started when I lost my keys, finding them after a long hunt, laying on cabinet by my bed. I never leave them there, something must have moved them. Not long after that, I lifted my tea cup and found a ring on the coaster - a sure sign of supernatural activity.

So, if you decide to try for the FTF on this cache, make sure you have every intention of setting a new cache in the series or a demon might reach out of the darkness and drag you down to hell.

You have been warned.


Guidelines for this series are below:
1. FTF'er should place the next cache in the series (in this case, The Curse of the FTF # 5) within 1 month...
Otherwise the curse will prevent you from ever getting another FTF again!!! Muhahahahahahahaha!
2. You can only be a FTF for this series once. This spreads the FTF love around, and gives others a chance to play along.
3. Cache can be any type of cache (Puzzle, Multi, etc.), but it should be set within the county of Surrey.
4. You must include this set of guidelines in your listing for the series.

By way of clarification, there is no requirement besides the standard signing of the cache log to prevent you from logging this cache when found. Everyone should log their find, and hopefully the FTF person will play along and place another cache, but it is in no way a requirement for logging your find.

Did I mention that there's a clue for Cipher Digression #4 in the logbook? No? How naughty of me.
