Geocache Description:


Hey! Who feels like a movie?

The cache is not at the listed coordinates. They are the location of the first clue.

This is South Africa's first night cache. To find it you will have to find clues that are only easily visible at night. It will lead you to a cache containing a small movie library. You may borrow a movie from the library. After you have found it you may return to it as often as you like (in the day time too) and borrow another movie to watch.

Night caches are rare around here, as it is unsafe to be walking around at night. This cache is designed to be done by car and it is possible to find all the clues from the safety of the car. You will be required to leave your car to find the final, but you can park within a meter or two from the cache. Spots have been chosen where the chances of meeting a dangerous muggle are low.

To find the cache you will need a torch that throws a good beam. I tried it with a small single LED torch and although possible, you are more likely to make mistakes when collecting the the clues. You will only see the clues if you hold your torch at eye level. Remember your GPS may give ground zero a few meters away from mine, so if you don't see anything try moving a few meters away and look again.

A firm sharp object (like a strong pointed stick or a heavy screwdriver) will be useful.

The DVDs in the library are for loan only! They are not for trade and will remain my private property. No copies of the DVDs will be made! Take only one DVD at a time because the library is small. Once you have watched a movie it must be returned to the cache! DVDs must be returned to the cache within a week. This gives a lot more grace than the video store. For the sake of others, please do not abuse it. Please log which movie you have taken in the log book and online. Please also log a note in the log book and online when you return the DVD to alert others who may want to watch it, that it is back in the cache.

DVDs are fragile. Please only handle them on the edges and do your utmost to prevent scratches. The DVDs are on a spindle in the cache but 3 DVD cases have been supplied to transport the DVD. Please don't lose them and return them to the cache too.

Although there is not much space, please feel free to add any working DVDs to the cache and build the library. To keep it simple there are no trade items in the cache.

Please realistically disguise the cache with a bit of leaf and grass matter to help prevent it being muggled.
