purple_pineapple: OK, time for this to go - it will be replaced in some form, but probably not with the cache at the original site! Thanks everyone!

Geocache Description:

This cache is designed to link the excellent Look Series created by Footsore and Weary and continued by Parmstro and Tjapukai, with the X Marks series, which we foolishly started (and have struggled with many of the subsequent cachers' offerings ever since). We feel that this one is quite easy and should not cause too much trouble to the many puzzle solvers in the area.

The cache is not at the above coordinates. They are for our house and will not be of any use to you at all in solving this cache, unless you drop in for a cuppa and talk to us very nicely! As an unusual twist, we have given you the end of the coordinates for the location of this nano cache.

All you need to do is work out the rest. The cache is hidden at a nice location, well worth a visit, and one which we were surprised to find ourselves, when Mrs PP visited a work colleague one day.

To work out the coordinates, you need to find out the link between the satellites Ganymede, Callisto and Europa and a discovery made by a cow herder in 1618.

You need to visit the site of the discovery, which had far reaching benefits to offer particularly in the world of health. It has helped asthmatics, those with foot complaints, stomach disorders or scurvy and successfully put one Surrey town on the map.

All you need to do is work out what was discovered, and where! When you have done this, use Google Earth or some other mapping programme to complete the coordinates below.

The cache is located at

N51 xx.x27

W 00 xx.x15

You will need to execute extreme care and stealth when retrieving and replacing the cache.
