This cache has been archived.

IndiHM: As I have had to disable some of the caches that give the clues to this cache, I have decided to archive this, leave it in place and rebadge it as a regular cache.

Geocache Description:

To access this cache stay on public footpaths, you will need to be able to climb at least 1 stile, depending on your route.

The coordinates given are not those of the actual cache but of a nearby place to park.
The cache is located at N53.AB.CDE
E000.FG.HIJ
In order to complete this cache you must first have visited Pineing for a cache, Sir John Franklin, The Ivy in the Holly and Its the Real Thing. You can complete them in any order, but I recommend you do them in the order listed above. This will involve a sliding scale of difficulty and is probably the best route.
This final cache is a standard sized cache, and is quite easy to find. But hey you can only hide a large cache in a certain number of places right ? And you probably would relish the chance to relax and do a few swaps.
At the time of placing the cache contained:
a collapsable dog bowl
an evil micro geopin (appropriate I thought)
an evil micro geocoin (unactivated for the FTF)
a UK keyring
a compass
a geocachers wrist band
a smiley trolley token
and a few odds and ends.
Please stick to the footpaths when completing this cache, I am aware having walked the route that your GPS will point you across the field from Its the Real Thing, please walk back on yourself (not through field), and follow the footpath away from Spilsby town centre. It will only add 0.02 miles to your route. Trust me the GPS will come good.

Any feedback is appreciated, these are my first hides, and as you will see they could have been made far more difficult but I didn't want to make it to extreme. If these are too easy/hard let me know. I will adapt the next series accordingly
