Geocache Description:

Part of the Film Buffoon series, an 8 mile walk around Baldock with terrific views.

Film Buffoon - Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

If your OS map is out of date, you might be surprised by the rather busy road running nearby, which is why this one is called Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Altogether now! "Oh you pretty Chitty Bang Bang,
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
We love you.
And, in
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
What we'll do.
Near, far, in our motor car Oh what a happy time we'll spend.
Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Our fine four fendered friend
Bang Bang Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Our fine four fendered friend
".

Don't forget to collect another code letter for the bonus cache, it is on a laminated card glued to the lid of the container

By the way, the mysterious "3 steps" are for dismounting from your horse before crossing the bridge!

About the Film Buffoon series

This series is intended as a scenic 8 mile circular walk in the countryside near Baldock. It is mainly on footpaths and bridleways, with plenty of off-the-lead opportunities for your canine companions.

I suggest parking at the coords for "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and completing the caches anti-clockwise in the order listed below. You tend to be facing the views in that direction, and it also means that for the multi caches, you won't need to double back.

Aside from the bonus, each of the caches stand alone and can be found separately if you're not up to the full circuit.

Also note that if you attempt this on a hot day, be sure to take plenty of drinks with you as most of the route has little shade, and there are no shops or pubs en route!
