Oh What a Palaver!! Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Leeroy71: I'm archiving all of my caches due to a change in circumstances, on-going problems with pain/ injury and following feedback from a fellow cacher.

Thanks to all of you who visited and enjoyed my caches and to those who didn't enjoy them, sorry but I tried my best. It's time to let somebody else have a go.

When able in the future, I still hope to get out and about finding the odd cache.

Geocache Description:

A fun puzzle telling of my further adventures and exploits in the caching kingdom, and the sad demise of a second pair of my favourite geocaching shorts in 2 weeks!!

The published coords are not for the cache itself, but are for a supermarket nearby.

Ponder this mini adventure;
I've just come back from a 3 day camping/ Geocaching break with a couple of my mates (Henry and Jack), who are new to caching, but i'm glad to say are now converts!! We have been to, in my opinion, England's greatest forest....the New Forest. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we had been happily cruising along a forest track for about 1 hour on the first morning, en route to cache number one. When the track suddenly come to a 40 foot, really steep, bank to descend in order to continue to the cache. I've never taken on a drop that severe before in my wheelchair and i was quite nervous about it. Then Henry, who is a Sergeant in the army (and a bit of a nutter!!), started egging me on saying that he thought i could manage it easily. Then Jack, who is a teacher (and the cautious one), said that it was too steep a drop and that we should turn back and find another path. Regardless of Jack's advise, i just went for it!! I got halfway down the slope and i was doing about 15 mph and absolutely loving it, when my front wheels hit a protruding tree root and i was catapulted out of my wheelchair and I landed, behind first, on a fallen tree trunk!!! The net result being my buddy Henry is on his knees screaming with laughter and then my other pal Jack asked if i would mind doing it again, as he wasn't filming it and he said that it would be a dead cert for a staring role in 'You've Been Framed' and £250!! and then there's me, I'm sprawled out on the forest floor with another pair of my favourite geocaching shorts ripped and a 4 inch wood splinter in my favourite geocaching bum cheek!! So that evening i ended up in the Bournemouth General Hospital having my splinter removed in casaulty, much to the amusement of the doctor, matron and the nurse (all girls by the way) who where all present to witness the splinter removal and i just know all 3 will be telling funny stories about it to their mates for years to come!!  and yes Jack did manage to film the splinter removal, even with all the giggling going on......Youtube here i come!! 

Hopefully, from my waffling, you can link together 15 related items, that all have a numerical value attached to them between 1-99. Let's call them A-O

The cache can be found at the following location;
