Geocache Description:


When visiting the cache look around the rock formations and try to decide which ones are singing or laughing - you may need a little imagination. The view across to the Cheviots is superb. [July 2008 - ferns are overgrown which makes your footing a bit dificult, please take care.]

If you are lucky enough you may also be able to find some real singing hinnies in cafes nearby. A singing hinny is a kind of scone that you bake on a hot griddle. So called because, as it cooks, it makes a sizzling noise. A busy mam on being constantly asked by her child if they were ready told her: "No they’re just singing, hinny."

I have placed the following items in the cache:
A decorative bauble
Hand made glass coaster (with a Toon Army shirt on it)
Bracelet
Taj Mahal key ring
Sewing kit
Disposable shaving kit
Flying toy

[July 2008 - when checking the cache I took away the punches (left by ginger tom) as a birthday present for Sue. Will put something else there later.]
