UPDATE 12 February 2010: A change of innings and a new ball in play! With the high muggle activity - more by nosey moggies I would imagine, the cache has been replaced with a downsized model and also relocated to a different hide that is hopefully more stable. The geo-check solution and hints have been revised for this new location. BRING OWN PEN
UPDATE 26 October 2014: Final GZ has had to shift with the variable cordoned area over the years so have replaced as and when required. All instructions for offsets are in Geochecker notes, please check you have latest details.
