Geocache Description:

This could also have been called Barking Mad, as this was what I almost went while trying to get stable readings around the GZ. It seems that strange magnetic forces may be at work here as the gps simply refused to cooperate which is why I have given an offset and distance rather than coordinates.


The search for this cache will take you near to a location where it is often possible to view all manner of dogs as well as various dog events.

It is a simple offset multi which I hope will have you as happy as a dog with two tails.

Your first task will be to identify the source of the information (use one side or the other but not both) with which you can answer the questions.
From there (with "there" being the source of the information), you will find the cache at a bearing of aproximately GBE degrees True at distance of DAFC metres where:
A = The number of cats in the picture.
B = The number of images of dogs visible * the number of legs that each dog would normally have.
C = The number of white posts near the entrance.;
D = The number of letters in the web address - 12.
E = The year since, second digit.
F = The line at the bottom of the sign. The number of letters in the third word - the number of letters in the second word.
G = The year since, second digit - third digit.
Checksum = 19

The Cache is a small (think nano) cammoflaged screw top plastic container containing a log only so be sure to bring your own writting implement.
