Geocache Description:

the fifth cache of the Kids stuff series of caches,cache is at the above coordinates any swaps from this cache should be bear related and of the same value


Once upon a time (as all good childrens stories start) not so long ago there where three bears, feeling bored one day and surfing the net, they stumbled upon geocaching.com. Intrigued by this pastime they decided to put to use one of the two and a half litre Tupperware containers, they had obtained from the pre-reform days of stealing food from picnic sites to some use and gathered enough, nuts, berries and trinkets to put a cache together.

They looked out of the window, unfortunately it rained for the next five days and four nights and bears DON'T like water for this reason they decided they had the time to devise a puzzle cache, they decided that only one of them would hide the cache due to the numbers of hunters that where presently frequenting the woods, but what could they call it …..001? As only one of the three of them hid it

They did hit one problem, they didn’t have a log book and had a problem acquiring one as bears ARE afraid of built up areas, so couldn’t just simply go down to the shops and ‘Geocaching logbooks are us’ to buy one. They eventually mugged the local postman after blocking some roads by felling trees and posting a letter to 507 Double Zero Street, NW35 0OO, forcing the postman to leave his van by the side of the road in a non-built up area.

After a previous encounter with Goldilocks where not only did she steal the bears porridge but their unemployment benefit Giro’s as well, This became a very unhappy time for the bears many arguments ensued, Mummy bear would repeatedly called daddy bear a $&*%* $)^%(. This even put mummy and daddy bears marriage at risk, t hey eventually sought advice from a bear marriage guidance in peru by telephone 51 29435347 for the trauma that they suffered from the break in,it was also discovered from this consultation that the event had left the mummy bear a bit paranoid and neurotic. She insisted that they each learn a new skill to keep their bearly secrets secret. The daddy bear became a master of codes with numbers, the mummy bear became a master of codes using symbols and words, the baby bear became a master of hiding things and subversion, hiding this cache became a good opportunity to test their skills
