Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the given coordinates, these are for refreshment.

Person ? was born in London, and is now hailed as one of the most gifted of his generation, and he had some success with his 13 year initial career in the UK.

Unfortunately the powers-that-be did not fully appreciate the full range of his talents, and he was hungry for more success and further challenges, so he pursued a career on the continent, where he gained more success in a limited time scale. Indeed one of his mentors at this time was quoted as saying he was “le bon dieu”.

Person ? also achieved further fame and “notoriety”, (he must cringe at the mere thought of this!), with a former colleague of his. This particular diversion from his main profession is widely regarded as one of the most embarrassing moments ever to be aired on prime time TV!

Person ? had a younger brother who followed in his footsteps, tragically he died at a relatively young age.

ABCD = Person ?'s birth year
EFGH = His brother's birth year
