Geocache Description:

This is a multi cache that will take you from box to box. Stage 1 is at the listed coordinates where you will find a post box. It is my favourite post box as you can post letters without even getting out of your car. On the post box you will find a unique reference number in the format NGAB XYZ Where NG is the prefix and A,B, X, Y & Z are numbers. To find the next stage of the multi take the last three numbers and apply the following computation.

(XYZ)³ + 2477845

This will give you a telephone number of a phone box in the Nottingham area. So you will need to prefix the number with the area code 0115 (calculated telephone number). This is stage 2. You will need to find the phone box and then check under the metal box. However to read it you will need special equipment. This will give you the coordinates for the final stage.

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
