Geocache Description:

An antidote to Christmas excesses
A straight-forward little puzzle to solve with paper and pen.

The main co-ordinates are for parking in the small public car park located behind the CSC  office building in New Road, Solihull.

If the carol singers are cr*p, crackers seem cheap, you've had your fill of cards, stockings and cake or got caught scoffing chocolates and need to get out the house for a while this one is for you!

Solve the puzzle and go forth full off cachers' seasonal cheer

The list contains items which a Geocacher might like to find under the Christmas tree on Christmas Day.
Find the hidden words in the wordsearch grid, identify the row number of first letter of each word and substitute that digit into the coordinates:

N52 ??.??? W001 ??.???

Seems too easy? Yeah, we thought so too, so we've added a rot13n twist to the grid

The park is extremely popular and can be very busy at times with dog walkers coming from all directions so be extra careful of muggles when retrieving the cache.
