Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the given coordinates. You can park there though.


Here's a chance to relive one of tv's classic game shows Blankety Blank. For those of you somehow missed this classic program, the idea was for two contestants (triangular or square) to fill in the blanks in various "humorous" phrases.

You had to do it in such a way as to agree with a panel of six celebrities. The celebrities where usually regulars and your classic textbook Blankety Blank panel would be something like Roy Hudd,Beryl Reid,Gareth Hunt,Lorraine Chase,Kenny Everett(who used to comically bend Terry Wogan's long microphone) and Sandra Dickinson. The contestant who matched the most celebs was the winner and the other one got a "Blankety Blank chequebook and pen".

I'm afraid I can't offer you a famous panel in fact your panel consists of just me. To get the coordinates all you have to do is agree with me on all the blanks in the phrases below.

1) I startled a lady whilst I was lurking behind the bushes in the park yesterday. She was most alarmed when I got out my BLANK and waved it at her.

2) A young lady offered to show me a good time in the woods the other day. I agreed to accompany her but only if she would let me look at her BLANK first.

3) We did enjoy ourselves in the woods. Unfortunately my BLANK was so big I couldn't quite squeeze it into her box.

4) My friend is very conceited. He is so proud of his BLANK that he wants to turn it into a waymark.

5) My new neigbhours invited me to a party. I only realised what kind of party it was when the hosts tried to show me their BLANK.

6) Whilst I was whizzing along the motorway the other day, I was most relieved when I saw a service station because I was desperate for a BLANK.

Now you should have 6 words. Transpose the letters (A = 1,B =2 etc)

The Coordinates are 53 21.ABC 2 39.DEF
Where A = BLANK3 3rd letter
B = BLANK2 1st letter
C = BLANK6 2nd letter
D = BLANK4 1st letter
E = BLANK1 1st letter
F = BLANK5 Last letter - B

Use the Geochecker to make sure your answers are good. If you can't get it maybe you have most of them right but are only missing one or two. In order to tell which ones you have correct I have included the sums of the last two letters for each blank.
BLANK 1 35
BLANK 2 24
BLANK 3 28
BLANK 4 19
BLANK 5 23
BLANK 6 18
