Geocache Description:

A series of eight caches and a ninth bonus cache on a roughly four mile circular walk between Lowsonford,Claverdon and Preston Bagot(near Henley-in-Arden).The walk is on mainly flat terrain with just one or two banks,but nothing too difficult.The co-ords above are for the good sized parking area at Yarningale Common,to find the bonus cache you need to find all the other eight caches and do the necessary working out below.

The start of the circular walk begins at the waypoint below,west of the parking area.There are nine caches in all signifying the nine lives of a cat,each cache is named after a famous fictional cat.The series is dedicated to the memory of our two beloved cats Heidi and Lucy who both sadly passed away recently,and replaces the two cache and dashes that were recently archived.
On each cache lid is a number designated to each cat cache(the number is also in the logbook),you will need to note down each cat and the number it represents to do the working out for the location of the bonus cache.All of the caches are well hidden from view and are in camo bags for extra protection.

The 'sums' are below for the working out for where the bonus cache is hidden.As said above,each cat is a number which can be found on each cache lid for the designated cat.A pen and paper will be handy for the working out.

A = Garfield - Tom
B = Jess + Mr Jinks
C = Sylvester - Bagpuss
D = Jess - Mr Jinks
E = Tom + Felix
F = Garfield - Bagpuss
G = Bagpuss + Felix
H = Top Cat - Garfield
I = Sylvester + Bagpuss
J = Top Cat - Tom

The cache can be found at N 52 AB.CDE W 001 FG.HIJ

The co-ords maybe a little out due to tree cover,hopefully the hint is quite helpful and descriptive if you have trouble finding the cache.
Whilst doing this series you pass geocache GC1VTZA 'Roar with the Lions' (visit link) ,and geocaches GCB7C7 'Spinning a Yarn' (visit link) and GCRTMY 'Aqueduct Three (Yarningale)' (visit link) are in the nearby area too.Also if you want to take a break,there are picnic benches up on the common.

Congratulations to pete3 ftf.
