Geocache Description:

A simple multi-cache with a small maths problem to work out for the final location, situated an easy stroll along minor roads.

A simple multi-stage cache, firstly you need to find the names of two pubs near the above co-ordinates. Then work out the clue, followed by a 10 minute walk to the final location.

First the pub with the shortest name in terms of numbers of letters: A=letters in first word, B=letters in second word, C=letters in third word. D=A+B+C

Next the pub with the longest name in terms of numbers of letters: E=letters in first word, F=letters in second word, G=letters in third word. H=E+F+G

You might want to sit in one of the pubs to work this part out. Final location is about 0.5 miles away at:
N (3*D+H) deg, BE.GF(A+C)
W 0 deg, (C-A)C.(C+F)E(B+F)

The cache originally contained a number of hotel toiletries, etc. that I have collected during numerous overseas business trips. I thought it was time to share some of these with fellow geocachers! Placed in a suitable location...

At the final cache location, you can also see a small thatched out-house.
