DOE A DEER Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

The Biffas: Great shame,after 12 years,this one seems to be missing. A large limb has fallen from a tree,and partly demolished the wall. Couldn't see the box under the fallen stones so it is now archived.
We may well resurrect the cache in the future in a slightly different location.

Geocache Description:

Popular caching location near Bingley,West Yorks. Cache is close to a path which could be muddy after wet weather.

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE LOCATION

Whilst stuck at home for the past couple of months as a result of illness, I thought it was an opportune time to dig the old 12 string guitar out of the loft,and give the fingers a bit of excercise.

Had not played for quite some time,and was a lttle rusty, but after a while I began to remember some of the chords that I had learned many years ago.It was whilst strumming happily away that I had an idea...

I played the following chords

E B A B A, Then E A G D B.

Not much of a tune,even after shuffling the chords around a bit but at least there were more chords than in a Status Quo song.

You are looking for a standard sized plastic container,which is situated at the following coordinates..

N 53 EA .BBA

W 001 EA DGB

The cache is called Doe A Deer, not because of the musical ? connection,but because there are several Deer roaming about the Estate, and we saw very fresh hoof prints when hiding the box.You may be lucky,and come across them.

The box contains the usual log book and pen,plus all new goodies,including a pack of cards,inflatable pillow and eyemask,pens pencil sharpeners, key rings and some stuff for the kids.

This is a very busy park so stealth may be required, please replace the cache very carefully,and ensure it is not visible.

For those who may be a bit tone deaf
