Geocache Description:

The container is about twice the size of 35mm film case which should make things a little easier. There is a field with a lot of donkeys in just along the path so if you have some spare carrots I am sure they would enjoy them.

If you have not already done the multi-cache "Cache 'n' Curry" and plan on doing it whilst you are doing this one I would recommend you do that one first!!! The reason will become clear. My Mom and Dad wanted to buy a Siamese cat and they went to the cattery to look at some kittens. When they got there there was only one kitten left, and looking at him it was obvious why, he had the biggest ears, really long nose and was really lanky.... basically he was Ugly and so everybody else had rejected him. They were about to say "Sorry, we'll leave it" but then my Dad caught him looking at them and it was love.....at second sight. So we acquired Bobby, who was quickly renamed Ugly Pugly. Whenever we now see anything that is little.... 'unusual'.... we comment that it has a bit of the 'Pugly' about it. The tree I have selected for this hide definitely has a bit of the 'Pugly' about it!! Part of a series of 9 caches on a 3.5 mile walk through the beautiful Staffordshire countryside. The walking is very flat but there are 3 or 4 stiles that you will need to climb. The walk in not suitable for a pushchair as it is uneven in places and also quite narrow, a couple of people have tried it on a bike which has also apparently proved problematical. You will mainly be walking on footpaths but there is one section which is along a rather busy road (as you approach 'waiting for the 112'). I have checked all of the footpaths on OS maps. Other than 'Ugly Pugly' (which has caused some problems) they are all 'fairly easy' and should take less than 5 minutes each I have attached a map of the full route but you will notice that the suggested parking is in the middle of the walk and they can easily be split into a 2.0 mile and 1.5 mile route. The suggested parking is on gravel outside a farmhouse, last time I parked there the farmer asked (politely) if i would move my car to either end of the gravel rather than in the middle to make it easier for lorries to turn into his farmyard.
