Geocache Description:

This is the tenth cache placed by Wheelchair Access. Thanks to GeoJacques for his assistance with placing the cache.


THE ABOVE CO-ORDINATES ARE FALSE, THE CACHE CAN BE FOUND NEARBY.

I enjoy good food, as most people do, I also enjoy watching cooking shows. This culinary theme of this cache was inspired by both of these interests.

  1. Like it or not cooking generally involves some form of fat. In my country ( and a lot of other European countries) this comes in the form of butter.Thankfully for our health and waistlines there is a healthier alternative, it can even be used in a salad dressing. A=number of letter in the correct answer.
  2. Gazpacho is a tasty liquid salad that is combination of stale bread, garlic, olive oil, salt, and vinegar. Is it traditionally served HOT or COLD? B=number of letter in the correct answer.
  3. Who hasn't had a banana split at least once in their life? C=number of bananas traditionally used to make a single serve banana split.
  4. I like watching cooking shows, there are so many cooking tips and recipes that can be picked up from them. One of my favourites is "Ready, Steady, Cook", which was my inspiration for this cache. D=number of chefs per episode.
  5. On a cold day there is nothing nicer, or healthier, then a hot steaming bowl of soup. There are many soup recipes in the world, some common, some a "little bit" strange. With a bit of research , you should be able to find out the main ingredient of the below soups( they come from my Polish background and I can say with all honesty that I have tried each one at one time).

    I suggest you try the following web site: http://www.outernetweb.com/recipes/index.html . The number of letters in the answer is the value you require.

    • E=Czarnina (2 words)
    • F=Grochowa (2 words)
    • G=Flaczki or Flaczkow (one word)
    A=          B=          C=          D=          E=          F=          G=     

The cache is a 35ml film canister, so you'll need your own pen. There is no room for swaps, but perhaps in your log you can share some of your dining experiences, good, bad or unusual. The cache can be found at:

S A(A+B)ºGG.(F-A)(B+D)(F-C)     E CBBºA(F-C).ED0

The area can have a lot of traffic going through, and the site is quite exposed, though some distance from the main muggle activity, as usual please ensure that you leave the cache well hidden before you leave.
