Geocache Description:


MARCH 2022 AND A FLATCOATED RETRIEVER HAS JUST WON BEST IN SHOW AT CRUFTS FOR A THIRD TIME!  Please just use the dates of the first two winners.

This cache was hidden on 6th April 2011 but I had to alter the date to 2021 for the system to accept the above text!

 

For my hide #501 I have decided to branch out and set my first ever puzzle cache. I am not really a great fan of puzzle caches, as they are usually much too hard for my small brain to work out, so I have made this one especially easy.

A Flatcoated Retriever has twice won Best in Show at Crufts, the most important dog show in the UK. All you have to do is find out which years this happened. Make the digits of the earlier year ABCD and the later year EFGH.

The above co-ordinates are for a suitable parking place, and the cache can be found a short walk away at:-

N51.03.(G-H)(F)(B-A) W000.13.(C-E)(Ax6)(Ex3)

CHECKSUM  All digits should add up to 39

PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE ALONG ANY PRIVATE ROADS TO REACH ANY OF MY CACHES.
