This Sudoku has a lttle twist in it, to prove that numbers are only symbols afterall, and the puzzle can still be solved as long as there is 9 different symbols used! Instead of using numbers, it uses letters. Which re-enforces Weekly#000 which was done with logos.

Fill the grid so that every column, every row and every 3x3 box contains 1 of every letter in the puzzle. You should then be able to see a word spelt out in one of the rows!
Most rivers have one of these!
Using the found 7 letter word and the formula of A=1 B=2 C=3... etc, you can then extract the co-ords with the following calculations.....
a =6th letter of the word divided by C.
b =2nd letter of the word minus J.
c =3rd letter of the word minus the 6th letter of the word.
d =The letter H minus the 5th letter of the word.
e =The 1st letter of the word.
f =The 4th letter of the word minus the 6th letter of the word plus the 1st letter of the word.
Clear as mud? I hope so, because I'm still deciding whether to give this a difficulty of 1 or 3!
And you thought there were no numbers to play with! ;-)
***** STOP PRESS *****
Thanks to Team Wibbles for their 'Emergency Cache Kit' which replaced the original (unfound apart from a muggle) which has now gone missing, so this is now a nano!
As much as I detest nanos, especially nanos placed where a small or regular container would be more beneficial, this is the type of hide where only a nano will work.
These spawn of Satan were not around when cache originally placed.
This hide shouldn't be about spending half an hour to find, rather it is about the journey and enjoying the surrounds.
Bring a writing utensil, and no stickers in the log please
