Geocache Description:

The cache is not located at the above co-ordinates.

The true cache location is given by
N 50 AB.CDE W 000 FG.HJK where

A = “Walk” – “Bone”
B = “Black – “White
C = “Collie” – “Bone”
D = “Fetch” – “Whistle”
E = “Stay”
F = “Dog”
G = “Bone”
H = “Bowl” - “Food”
J = “Biscuit” – “Collie”
K = “That will do” - “Walk”

A correct solution of the puzzle will give a checksum (total of all 15 numbers) of 42.

This wording of the puzzle is valid from 11.30 am on 5th July 2009. Please do not use any earlier version.

You are looking for my usual style of camouflaged ammo box.

There is no easy parking in the vicinity of the cache and most of the nearby roads carry fast moving traffic. For this reason, please be prepared to park a little further away than usual and walk back down the road to the woods. You can then enjoy a 10 -15 minute walk through lovely mature woodland to reach the cache.
